Ipod, 8GB 3rd generation - £89 at Boots

Got a 8GB ipod at Boots today for £89, these seem to be £129 in most other places. This was in Meadowhall, prices had just been changed this morning, was on my way to get a 4GB £99 with half price speakers at Argos - £124.
Got speakers from Currys £20 down from £40.

So a blue ipod 8GB and speakers for £15 less than a 4GB and speakers at Argos. DD will be more pleased about the colour than extra memory!!

Oh and 1180 Boots points :T :T :T

    Is this a genuine reduction in-store everywhere, or a mis-price that they honoured?

    Sounds like a fantastic deal if it is a nationwide reduction!

    Been doing some research. Ipods reduced in all stores that stock them as they are going to discontinue them as in-store items. If you are lucky enough to find one grab it quickly as it seems everywhere in the South has sold out! No luck for me and I phoned just about every big branch on the South coast :(

    Happy hunting!

    Just popped out to my local Boots. Assistant confirmed the offer, but they only had a solitary 4GB nano. She scanned it and it was £79 - nowhere near as good a reduction as the 8GB version. Ah well :cool:
