DrunknMunky Veteran Posted July 5, 2010 Author Veteran Share Posted July 5, 2010 I took the price directly from Xbox.com, but it seems the price was wrong.

scokem Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 If you head over to The Hut you can pick up: Bayonetta For a mere ?8.93 so long as you use the code GAMEDAY10 :) Definitely worth it at that price!

Good value for 800 points.

Smashing Pumpkin Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Since disabling email updates on immediate forum replies - who needs the stress! - I've actually found that making this thread a sticky has decreased its visibility, to me at least. Seeing the US Deals thread being updated alongside the stickied UK version has made me realise this.

Livin in a box Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Still got my 360 S pre-ordered at ShopTo at £184.85, with my fiver off making it £179.85 (from predicting the football), is that the cheapest? I've heard a rumour that Sainsbury's will be selling it for £140, anyone else heard it?

+BeLGaRaTh Subscriber¹ Posted July 8, 2010 Subscriber¹ Share Posted July 8, 2010 /me just got from the year 1,002,009 and can confirm the 360S is being sold in Sainsburys for £139.99 which is slightly less than a million years :p Mind you the new virtual reality 360 is amazing there, its just like the holodeck from startrek.

acnpt Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Sainsburys did sell the Wii (motion plus + resort pack) cheap a couple months ago, but ?139.99 seems far too cheap. Wish I hadn't pre-ordered from GAME, awful company, still ?199.99, don't have a choice as I've got a bloody gift card :pinch: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/598471-official-uk-xbox-360-special-offers-deals/page/113/#findComment-592878492 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You so funny John :p No but seriously, it's not happening, and certainly not with a supermarket. This type of deal would be something to expect from a retailer like Game/HMV etc. Even then it wouldn't happen. Undercutting the competition by ?60 would prob require sexual favours ;) GameOverRob 1 Share Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/598471-official-uk-xbox-360-special-offers-deals/page/113/#findComment-592878502 Share on other sites More sharing options...

acnpt Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Have GAME ever sold anything cheap on release day? Do they even have the buying power now for hardware? Most places have at least twice the number of Sainsburys as GAME stores. If they do sell cheap anywhere, independent retailers will be buying them, like they did with MW2.
