Thanks garvm, I've been on the lookout for a cheap 4-6 gang individually switched socket and €6.99 is a good price.

Reserved the 2nd last one in Liffey Valley now.

Perhaps it's worth checking again in the morning, in case someone reserved but never picked up?

Hey everyone. Seeing that these appear almost sold out. This seems like a good buy also. The fact that each socket has its own switch is handy (found that out from the reviews)

Only €5.99

I took a chance and bought 3 of these in Dundalk yesterday. I can confirm that the photo is wrong as they do have individual switches.

Read my post again. I was confirming, for anyone interested, that the 4 gang ones in the link above DO have switches. The photo is wrong.

Ordered a couple of the 4 way ones. I've been looking for switched sockets for ages. I thought that they were banned for some weird H&S reason or something - the likes of DID, Power City, etc . . . . only ever stock non-switched ones. I prefer to be able to turn devices off without having to unplug them.

Both of mine are plugged into surge protected leads and they work fine. Not the Argos one's though, I'm using different one's.
