    I just reserved 1.

    So I just turn up to my local Currys with my Ref number and pay 97p?

    What if they say 'actually madam, its £69.99'?

    You've reserved it at the price shown online.
    Benefits to you


    Items will be available to collect an hour after reserving online giving you fast access to our stock


    Items will be reserved for you until the end of the next trading day so you have the flexibility to visit our store at a convenient time


    The price you see online is the price you pay in store

    Hence reserving is a waste of time. Greedy reserving is going to kill this one off for everyone with a load of calls tomorrow telling everyone they're out of stock when the staff snapped them up. Best not to give them any ideas. I'm hoping noone's reserved any at the store I'm off to tomorrow as the staff will clear the rest off.

    From above *some* are reserving 3 or 5 :eek:

    A little tip for everyone. As it's a sunday, stores have different opening hours. Get yourself off to a 10.30 opening one, then move onto an 11.00 opening one if no joy.

    Good question. Last week the 97p games came available on Sunday so I'll be trying first thing Sunday. Not scientific but worth a short drive.

    i work for currys and we have nothing about this in our POS and emails.

    Also, this model was being reviewed towards the end of 2007, e.g. http://www.vnunet.com/personal-computer-world/hardware/2198826/review-binatone-carrera-x350 but suppose technology does change quick enough to make this obsolete stock unfortunately.

    Hello again.

    My best mates a manager at Currys and he's saying this Sat Nav goes on sale tomorrow for 97p.

    Its old stock and will still be advertised at £69.99 (Staff won't change it as they want it for themselves).

    You'll have to take it to the till and ask for a price enquiry.

    If I was you I'd phone up the store and ask about it first, I also wouldn't make a trip out for it just incase your local store doesn't have it in stock.
    does this mean sunday or monday?
