  • This is not a glitch, they are that cheap. They should be £249.99 with £80.00 off.

    that isn't correct, they are 329 less 80, but the 80 is coming off twice, the next cheapest available is £229.00
  • I work at Sainsbury's and have checked this. The price on the SEL should be £249.99 with £80 discount. Stores just have not changed the SEL's yet. No glitch, just normal bargain price!

    Well glitch or no glitch, and the SEL definitely said they were £249.99 down from £329.99 at the Wakefield store £169.99 for a laptop is a real bargain in my opinion regardless of whether you choose to view it as a glitch or not!!!!

  • Went into my local this morning and they scanned it and said it was £249.

    Rang them now and asked them to put it through the till as a 'sale' and she said price was coming up at £249.

    Definitely not working for me! Gutted as my laptop is on its way out :(

    I agree with Lou. The price appears to be £249 AFTER the discount but it's actually £170. Yes they could have reduced the price by another £80 but as Blingbaily says the price should be £250. It's less than it should be otherwise the price on the ticket should be £170
  • I JUST GOT ONE SO THANK YOU!!!!!! :beer:

    Can't see why not, it's a nationwide price and it's not a glitch they have been selling them online at £249.99 for months now but the £80 off offer isn't online (yet) They probably need to sell old stock to make way for new models coming in for Christmas.
