Currys at it again with their Misleading Sale
Two days ago I visited their web site to find a
"Vax Air Lift Steerable Pet U84-AL-Pe Vacuum Cleaner" listed in their SALE as £119.99
I was somewhat surprised this morning to see this VAX increased from it`s previous Sale price of £119 to £269.99 but still with a SALE logo on the page
However can you justify this SALE statement when VAX themselves are only selling it for £159.99 with their full price for this product listed as £249.99
I suspect, it will soon it will be reduced again this time with "previous price tag was £269.99"

It looks like the item has been removed from the sale (which they are allowed to do) but they have mistakingly left the sale logo on the page, the prices of all other items in their "sale" indicate the was and current prices but this item only shows a current price with no saving. It also looks to be out of stock, not available online and I checked my local stores and there are none available anywhere near me (maybe other areas have them though).
It probably will go back down in price once they have secured more stock and know what their baseline prices will be.0 -
I called into my Local Colchester branch yesterday as it was next door to another store I was visiting
It was on display at the £269 price
However, I take your point and watch with interest when its restocked
However as I need it urgently its "AO.com" here I come at the £119 price
Its obviously a popular machine as lots of stockists are OOS at the price0
