    Thank OP - just reserved 2 for collection tomorrow - reservation confirmation e-mail states £2.50 so we'll see what they say tomorrow! That's the 2 Xmas pressies sorted!
  • Tried to reserve this a.m. but OOS, then I lost internet connection plus busy busy busy and just sat down 10 mins ago and hey presto 3 in stock so ordered 2... for £2.50, could do with 2 more as 4 kids!

    Also - some lowlife stole 4 scooters from side of my house a couple of weeks ago...not as if its a busy road! So please keep eyes peeled for any similar bargains on scooters....thanks!:o
  • Just thought - I have a reservation no. via text but no email (as yet)...
    ...does this mean its not guaranteed??

    Sports Direct are doing scooters for biggers kids for £8. If you look at their site there's pictures of them. Lots of low-lives about I'm afraid.

  • Reserved online 2 for £2.50. At kiosk came up at £3.75 each and 2 for £5.62. Wondered over to the cashier with a screen grab of my reservation (didn't get confirmation text or email when I reserved last night) and asked her to look into it. She checked her system and online before offering me both for £5. Would have been happy with that - except the manager came over to check and see what was going on and told the SA to give me both for £2.50 as that was what the total on the screen grab said....

    So thanks OP! Will have a happy daughter and nephew on Christmas morning!
