Epilator tip - I have noticed they are being reboxed, if you can find a box without a large window cut out so you can physically see the epilator then you stand a good chance of it being cheap. The new boxes let you see the product, and they are the full price jobbies. So you want the box with just a picture on the front, not the actual product poking through.

Yes this is what I thought, its the old packaging. I was just in my local store and saw the old packaging one tucked at the back on the mens shaver. Got really excited and scanned it... its £99 and the new packaging is £106!

Another thing, I bought some Vileda wood floor mops in one store and they scanned at £1.25. The exact same thing in another store still scanning full price at £6 something. So it looks like there are some price differences between stores.

This is really annoying, 1 store close to me has several of the twin DVD players, flip camcorders, cameras, binatone satnav's etc, For the 3rd time this week, I took 1 of each to an assistant to get them price checked and still ALL full price. About 20 items in total, just to see, then preceded to put them all back again.

It's really annoying me as all I want it the twin DVD players.

(However I did bag a £60 scooter for £6)

This has been happening to me too in N0rf0*k. I found the Flip and the Toshiba flip type camcorder but they are still coming up as full prices. What a shame. Would really love the Flip. Did however manage to bag some nice Babyliss Pro 230 Elegance straighteners for £15. Someone had just put them on a random shelf near the bakery and realised what they were. My daughter will be sooo happy at Christmas.

Thank you for sharing all this info everyone. :-)

wow...thats excellent...i vowed not to go back tilthe weekend to my local stores....but stories like this make it impossible to stay in!!! Unless you fancy selling one of the laptops??!!

One Laptop being used as we speak, and the other safely tucked away for DS Christmas Present...Sorry! Don't give up though, they had more! She didn't say how many, but offered me a variety of colours, (Black, Ice Blue or Purple) or a different Dell Model at £129!
She said they had a Toshiba one yesterday, but that had sold!

The Braun Epilator wasn't with the other electricals, but was on a 'sales stand'.
Also, they have had the Canon Ixus 105 in for a few weeks now, SEL £50. I'll be calling in again tomorrow (for the memory cards!!) and if there are other bargains to be had, I'll happily post back here!
Keep trying Folks, I had all but given up hope!

Yes I saw that a couple of days back but didn't need it (didn't know what it was lol!) so put it back. Did you see those two Garmin watch things? They still scan at full price even though they've been on clearance for weeks.

Did you notice whether they had restocked the Lumie clocks? Just an out of stock label every time I go in?
