Playstation 4 bundles

Hi,
Having decided to buy a Playstation 4 in the sales with money I received at Christmas, I found that prices actually seemed to have risen.
In the build up to Christmas, Tesco were selling the 500GB console with Star Wars Battlefront, FIFA 16 and another game for £249. The price now for the Console with just battlefront is £299.
This trend seems to be the same at most shops.
I've also looked online but can't seem to find anything similar to the deals that existed before Christmas.
This seems odd as I'd usually expected the price to be higher before Christmas.
Would anyone expect better deals to appear in the run up to Easter, or will I just have to bite the bullet and pay more?

Thanks

    January sales seem to be a thing of the past (except Next hanging on in there to sell their unwanted !!!!! before putting the regular stuff back on the shelves)

    All the good deals have been late nov/dec in the last couple of years - black friday seems to have changed things.

    Argos will probably have an easter deal

    another place you could try is Amazon Warehouse Deals they sometimes have returned items or cancelled orders that are open box and sell cheaper
