be better off finding the model of the TV you want then use Google bang in model number at top and then click on shopping tab on left hand side, amazing amount of people that don't realise its there.
Has saved me £300 on 2 white goods so then bought a dishwasher for free.

That is because it has not started yet!0 -
Woolworths put pretty much all of there prices up to RRP and then discounted from there steadily dropping by 10% every few weeks, I imagine they will do the same and we wont see anything significant for weeks yet whilst they attempt to make as much as they can.0
