The thing is when you reserve the price you pay is the price in the store at the time will this work on a collection item?????? or even on a delivery item???

I got it to work but not sure whether they will honour it in store


Check stock & reserve online, pay in-store when you collect.
If items are in stock, your reservation will be held in-store until the end of the next working day. Items marked may not be available for immediate collection in all stores but can usually be ordered in from the warehouse for you (subject to stock). Items which need to be ordered in are usually available for collection within 3 working days - the exact dates will be shown on your reservation. When you place your reservation, you will be given a reservation number to take to the store. Prices may change on a daily basis due to special offers. The price you pay will be the price in store on the day you collect and pay for your items.

May be best to take the delivery option - can it be cancelled off in the same way?

as you can see once you remove one of the item, indeed the price stays at £10 or depending of the most expensive item cost, think i did quake and project gothem and the item was down to £5, but at the bottom is this note.

This reservation relates to the item(s) only, not the price. The item(s) have not been paid for and the price you pay is the price valid in store when the goods are collected. This may result in the price being different, for example after a promotion that was valid at the time the goods were reserved has ended.

Therefore they will not sell the items to you at the bargain prices that we thought we could get away with sorry to be the bearer of bad news people.

When you get through the normal buy online process, after you confirm your card details, do you get the option to review your basket at that stage, or does clicking on confirm for the card details place the order automatically?

Ok, quickpay brought up £29.99 when i put in the reservation no. went to the till, same thing, so I showed her my email, she got the manager, half an hour later he came back and said it was an error but he would honour the 1 game for me. So thats it folks, sorry thought it would work.
