    QUOTE]

    I'm in H*ll and due to moving house couldn't call in yesterday and missed the chance to buy one - they had 7 on the shelf apparently. If by any chance you make it to your store I would really appreciate one please - I'm not bothered what colour it is. Pink with blue spots would be fine :) I'm surprised staff haven't nabbed them tho!!!

    Just bought one at No**h Harb*ur!

    Sales assistant scanned the demo box and it came up as £529!!
    Went out the back and came back with another scanned at £149 result!

    Loads out back apparently, staff totally unaware of the discount.
    Go get' em!


    Thanks for this, just got one! Was tempted to get a 2nd with the voucher, but thought I'd not be greedy!

    Just a heads up here to warn you about the completely hopeless Tesco Customer Service.

    I bought one of these last night at my local store only to discover its in White and I wanted Black.

    First call to 0845 6779603 and I am told that my local store has none in stock. I ask her to call the store to check, and surprise they actually have 2 in stock but both are in white :(

    Asked her to try the next largest store to me, no stock showing on system she says. I asked her to call them direct to check, but I am told no answer from the store (within 10 seconds of me asking!)

    Second call to 0845 6779603 and I am told still no answer at second store. Advised to call back later. Do they have a direct number so I can call the store directly myself? Apparently not. Im told to call 0845 6779603 again later.

    Third Call to 0845 6779603. Lines at store still engaged or no answer, and no they cant ask the store to call me back.

    Fourth Call to 0845 6779603. Lines engaged im told.

    Forget it.

    So no direct numbers it seems to call your local Tesco store, stock system is not reliable, Tesco make money from your attempts to contact their store, and no they wont take messages or call you back. Every little helps!

    OMG when I read your post earlier I thought you was joking regarding the colour , but now I know you are being serious.
    There are people on here who would sell their granny for one of these. These are rare as rocking horse poop at this price and you complain about the colour.
    Please advertise it on here and make somebody happy, you might even get a extra couple of quid for your trouble.

    Remember....Every little helps!!!
  • Barnsley have 7, Oldham have 3 & Batley has 1! Hope that helps!
  • Not football ;) joke
    Barnsley have 7, Oldham have 3 & Batley has 1! Hope that helps!
  • Oh dear I have it then

    I wish I could get one my Tescos sells food mainly and no tescos for miles around. I wish I could also get a HP touchpad, be thankful you got one many of us cant unless we drive for miles from store to store


    Be thankful for what you got

    You should have checked before you left the store, but no to keen to grab your bargin and get out. All you want to do is post about staff bashing, here's a tip don't shop at Tesco!
  • Had a few white ones in Grimsby an hour ago , you could probably reserve one if not too far for you.

    I phoned Batley at about 12:45 they had none left and barnsley only had 3 which she couldn't see still been there if I drove the 40 minutes journey so I haven't bothered.
  • No need for everyone to start being unpleasant - I think that plenty of folks will manage to grab a bargain on these because Tesco don't sell many and given the HP Touch Pads and all the clearance netbooks / laptops alot of people will already have thier tech fix.

    Now stop moaning and arguing and get searching.
