    Someone's got to stop Woolworths doing these fake half price deals. Sorry, but you'd get a better laptop for that price in any major computer chain.
    Debt as at 12th July 2006 - £61,345 :eek: :eek: :eek:
    Debt free 21st Oct 2011.

    All thanks to :money:
  • ditto it was never £799.99 and how can they get away with saying it was. I thought it had to be for sale for a few weeks and then reduced before a retailer can say it was at so and so price.
  • Agreed - this is very expensive for what it is. You can get dual core laptops for £400 with some shopping around.
    :p happy-hoor :p

    I saw a computer base only at ASDA last night for £279 and it had a good spec. I cannot remember exactly what the spec was but it is Vista ready and it made my PC look like a calculator. Much faster than the Woolworths one. Put this with a cheap monitor bought elsewhere and you have a fantastic deal.

    The CrystalBrite Technology thing makes the picture unbelievable clear compared to likes of the cheaper Dell Inspirons.

    Well done to Acer. decent product at a decent price
  • It's not just the laptops that they falsely advertise. It's almost everything that they say is reduced is not actually reduced at all. I think the way you get away with saying it's reduced is by selling it for full price in at least one of your stores for at least 4 weeks. So every store in the UK probably gets one outrageously overpriced item on sale for four weeks a year and then Woolworths can have this amazing sale non stop.

    No wonder they are going out of business as fast as you can say "sale".
  • Well, its only a fool that will be fooled by their tricks & if you are clever enough to join this web & you buy into a foolish trick then your an even bigger fool.
