I've had success in Comet and Wilkinson (argued product was not in perfect condition)0

I successfully haggled in Jessops for an SLR camera and bag. Should have been about £580, I got it down to £500 dead. Don't be afraid to take your business elsewhere when it comes to more high-value items.Because it's fun to have money!
£0/£70 August GC
£68.35/£70 July GC
January-June 2019 = £356.94/£4200 -
Success yesterday in Fenwicks with already 20% off in the household event - another 10% off because the box was 'marked'. Yet another department would not budge on stickered price.
We have also previously had success at their Warehouse sales with additional discounts applied.0
