Anyone got anything good in the sales?

I'm off out tomorrow.

 

Primarily looking for a Toshiba RD-85DT hdd/dvd recorder with Freeview, some Merrell Chameleon II trainers, cheap Xbox games (paid only 0.99p for one last year!) and a long list of DVDs that I'll never watch.

 

Any good places having online sales?

Just looked at that as I was thinking of buying a new HDD Freeview box, I'd looked at the Humax 9800 but that doesn't have DVD recorder (although it has USB connection so you can copy to PC to write them).

 

That tosh would be good as the only DVD player we have at the moment is the playstation 2 which isn't brilliant. Bit pricey though and I can't see if it's dual tuner or not.

nothing good in sales.they were advertising a laptop for 199 pounds on boxing day at pc world they only had 10 in store in leeds.people were queing up from 1130pm night before.

what for a basic spec laptop.think people are wise to sales.shop around and you can get bargains.i bought a epson dx5000 all in 1 printer/scanner/copier for 69.99 and a full set of ink for 29.99. the printers only come with enough ink to get you going and none of the printers had a basic USB lead with them.

they tried selling me a thing for 19.99 that if printer breaks in 3 years they will give you a new one.said i not intrested and they said we can do it for 9.99.still did not want it.

 

bit of a let down in sales.

Printers never come with printer cables. In the old days they never came with parallel cables and nowadays they never come with USB cables.

 

Full set of third-party inks costs less than £8 from the right place, but can be a pain with Epson printers. Canons are easiest.

Weird isn't it? Hardly anything I've ever bought has come with a USB cable but I have enough for all the peripherals and eight surplus! Where do they come from?:blink:

Good question. I was given a small photo printer for Christmas, which features bluetooth, a howevermanymillion-in-one card reader, and a USB port.

 

Only after opening did we realise that you need a seprate adapter for the bluetooth, a cradle / adapter thing for most types of memory card, and it didn't come with a USB cable.

 

Ho-hum! Still good. :)
