    I ordered a Canon Powershot A550 from Amazon for £92, as they had sent me an email about the Canon cashback offer - it is £25 off this particular model. It was great timing because I was about to order a lower spec Canon and now with the £25 cashback the A550 will come out at the same price. A great deal - go and have a look on Amazon, the offer ends tomorrow.

    That's one prezzy sorted out then!

    Grabbed the last one and have already had £2.72 validated on my GreasyPalm account as well!

    So that's a Canon A550 for £61.28 altogether :D

    They will probably re-load these onto the site tomorrow, so there's still probably a chance for others to get this.


    EDIT: The OP's link is actually a referral - probably for whichever cashback site he's using - so he might not even realise he's posted a referral link!!

    I bought one of these back in May, it worked out roughly £80 after £30 cashback. It's a good camera (was the best in it's class) and highly rated on the camera review sites.

    Just in case John Lewis don't come up with the goods, the same model is available from 7dayshop at £89, less £25 cashback + £3.95 p&p. So £67.95.

    For £3 more, however, they have the A560.

    (Both currently out of stock, but if you order today, the cashback is still available).

    HTH
  • Thanks OP, ordered one last night when there were 4 left.

    Now can someone tell me if this is going to be better than my canon a400. That's a good camera outdoors but doesnt quite churn out crisp photos indoors without a flash.

    i have the A430 power shot
    my brother has the new 550 although i find mine easier to use (im used to it)
    i think the 550 is a better camera for all round pics
    :cool: hard as nails on the internet . wimp in the real world :cool:
  • Is there a link to info about the £25.00 cashback details. If I order one today from Amazon, will I still be eligible for it or do you have to have a receipt dated before 27 November? Many thanks.
    There are three ways to get something done; do it yourself, hire someone or forbid your kids to do it.

    Linky for the claim form pdf is in the top right hand corner.


    Same form as on the Amazon website.

    Get the A560 from Amazon, not the A550. It's better and only costs about 30p more!
