    Just called Boots stores in Cheltenham and Gloucester and no Xboxes left. Cheltenham did have a few last week but they must have all gone.

    excellent... I'm glad someone has got one :-) I already have one so it was for a family member.

    I wonder if it was the one they had that originally refused to scan at nothing less than £140.

    OMG £10:eek:

    I have just located one too! OH is at this moment going to check it out! Told him to have it price checked 1st .... wish us luck! our eldest would LOVE this!:D

    Edit: he is now in Boots .... but can't find them .... yet!

    Edit: He has found them ... yay! Getting the SA to check the price now!

    Edit: OMG! there was no barcode on the item so they can only chrge what is on the shelf :(

    Edit: To everyone who got the Xbox for £10 ... did your box have a barcode on it? I find what the SA said very strange!
    I can say whatever I like here ... 'cos no one can see me .. ner ner ner ner ner !!!....

    How do you know I ain't sitting here butt naked?!?!

    I thunk I've made you think for a minute!

    ARRRGGHH! Just called headoffice, they were really nice, but nothing they could do! she did say that she had loads of phone calls about locating Xbox's! Anyway, told OH about getting the 'brown box they come in' scanned. He said he will go get one, and if he see's a brown box, ask them to scan that, if it comes up as £10 great! If they still scan it at £75, then he'll just return it.

    the lady at head office CS said they can't accept returns without barcodes, not sure how they are able to sell them without barcodes. What you have stated clears it up for me though, there had to be a barcode somewhere for the product, otherwise, how would they ring it through:confused:

    Edit: will be proper flabbergasted if OH does get it for £10!:D oohhhh, the suspense!!

    I just tried at my local boots, they would not honour the £10 price, guy went to check it after scanning in the sales ticket twice with his manager and came back and told me it was a pricing error that has now been corrected :confused:
