    Okay, how about this deal then? It's the best that I've seen around.

    Ok This is a bit complicated but maybe the best deal in the UK and promises guarnateed stock.


    To make this work go to the following site Great Universal via Quidco, if your not a member of quidco sign up!

    http://www.quidco.com/great-universal-essentials/


    Ive also selected what I think is the best package and the one that will in the long run work out cheapest:


    PS3 60Gb
    Resistance Fall Of Man
    Call Of Duty 3
    Extra Wireless Controller
    Blue Ray DVD Remote
    HDMI Lead

    This is £650 from Great Universal, will be worked down to £444!

    1) You recieved 20% for being a new customer from GU.

    http://www.greatuniversal.com/AgNet/... =0&prod_id=0

    2) You will recieved 6% Cash Back From Quidco.

    3) You will recieved 10% Cash Back from GU on sums over an initial £150, as long as you open a great universal account, but you can pay this right away with a credit card if you wish.

    Okay heres the maths:

    New Customer Discount -> £650/20% = £130

    Quidco (they havnt been applying discount to full amount as far as I know) 6% taken at £650 = £39

    Cash Back Taken As Cheque at 10%, Calculated after Initial 20% Deduction and initial £150 Spend. 10% of £650-(£130+£150) = £370/10% £37

    So

    £650 - (£130+£37+£39) = £444

    You can also spread the cost of an item over 40 Weeks interest free, though would take longer to get the 10% cash back and delivery is free.

    Everying they sell says upto 2 weeks from supplier, standard fare, but hoping it arrives on release day as the banner on first page exclaims :D:D
