    I recommend them. Good tablets with quality built. Bought 1 and was so impressed got another one for DD xmas. Paid 2nd one with my first lot of £20 vouchers and still have another £20 to spend before 26 nov. Ordered covers on ebay...if you can find stock, go for it...

    thank you for this, my son really wanted the nexus 7 but i just can't afford that as i have 3 boys who all want really expensive things this year so hopefully he will be as happy :D

    Keep checking, all of N.Ireland had no stock yesterday when I checked ( was in our local shop and asked them to check) and then last night 6 came in to my local store and a few others also. Picked 4 up today :)

    Although the fella who was serving me said I was lucky to get the last 4 they had, as they weren't getting any more stock in

  • HUDL...Simple response and it costs nothing with clubcard vouchers !;)

    Had my Hudl order which was 100% paid for with clubcard vouchers cancelled for no apparent reason (complaint currently in with Tesco CS)

    Were you actually able to "buy" yours 100% with clubcard points?

    Have not bought one as have a galaxy tab from a while ago but all the adverts say 'free with £60 clubcard vouchers' - so if they advertise it why they cancel? If I wanted one I would have done the same as you as free things in this day and age is excellent!
    No buying toiletries challenge - possibly for most of 2011,2012,2013,2014,2015!

    I recommend the HUDL over this, there's also a £15 off 75 spend code for Tesco Direct which brings it down to 104.99. The HUDL is well built, has 16GB which is expandable and a 1.5ghz Quad-core processor which is a higher spec than this tab.

    If you like your Brands, then there is nothing wrong with this tab and obviously it is a clear bargain - but the HUDL does offer more for your money if you're in the market and don't know which to pick.

    This is just my opinion though and i'm just a geeky mother ;)

    If you want a HUDL, get one whilst you can. They've been sold out for weeks at all of my local stores and the colours I wanted were sold out online. I managed to finally grab a purple one yesterday!

    Last thing, don't buy the compatible covers you can get cheap on eBay etc. The official Tesco HUDL covers have the camera hole at the back so you can take pics without removing the case. It's also fitted, like a fascia, which I was really pleased about.

    Now let's hope the kids approve when father Christmas comes to deliver..

    This is just 2 of the reviews I read about the Huddle, as I was seriously considering buying these when I couldn't get the Samsung Tab's.

    After asking around, speaking to the man who fixes my laptop and computers and trying out the Samsung for myself through my cousin who owns one, I went ahead and bought the 4 Samsung ones when I got the chance. The fact I paid £109 for one of the tablets and getting a £20 voucher with each one to use against the others made the other 3 £89 and I still have a £20 voucher to boot :)

  • If you are looking for a great value tablet from Argos then look no further than the Nook HD+ 16GG 9". £129 which then of course qualifies you to also receive the 2 x £10 vouchers. The spec is incredible for the money (full 1080P HD, now with Google Play). Only downside is no cameras on board (I've had my Sammy Tab 2 for over a year and never taken a pic with it yet!).
