LA Noire is £10 in Sainsbury. Looks like it can be delivered to Parcel Motel.

Did you ever catch the native American guy that broke out and do the windows match the number of rooms or is anyone walled up and if so how much does one have to pay to be walled up???!!??!!

Bought tingle in CeX for €25 if he was a little bit taller he'd be me, the guy that fixes the bridges holy duck I keep smirking and wanting to run away and then he's gone very insert offensive word here so many to pick from kind of game I've played it before but woah it's different

I will admit nothing.
Suffice it to say
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.....

RobbingBandit · 02-08-2018 11:34pm

Well that's true you've seen me. Most here have not.

Is that the place with large abandoned sections? If so, mind if I PM you about it? It's not ninty bargain related so don't want to clog up the threat.

Is there any insight here as to the cheapest (online or in store) place to buy a Switch? Looking to pick one up in the next few weeks.

10% off on eBay today so might be worth a look. Check HUKD for the discount code to use.

If you can't get it to parcel motel, change store by changing your post code (e.g. by moving to Address Pal) and try again but bear in mind that delivery costs vary from locaiton to location - regardless of the cost in the schedule, they charge you £7 in St Albans, bringing the price to £16.99 before forwarding, which is the same as amazon who will deliver for free. Delivery is free over 100.

BUT! This is a supermarket delivery, not a shipment. If it's anything like a Tesco or Supervalu delivery, and I'm pretty sure it is, the item is delivered in a tray with your name on a docket but there's no packaging on the item itself to identify you or your PM / AP account!

Thanks for this, took the plunge and bought one with MK8, a great deal there!

Going shopping for a Switch today. Checking Smyths, Argos, GameStop for bundle deals. Anyone know of a good bricks and mortar bundle deal?
Thanks

It's awful much tho

The Isabelle amiibo that comes in that pack unlocks the Animal Crossing Mii outfit in Mario Kart.
That may not be worth €6 to you, but that's ok, we can't all have souls....

Amiibos give small things like some hearts and power moon hints in Mario Odyssey.

An amiibo is an amiibo

RobbingBandit · 08-08-2018 11:10pm

Animal Crossing amiibo cards €1 in Argos too not many stores have them though

I called that out specifically because it's supposed to only be the Villager amiibo that gives you that outfit but in the Switch version at least it's her too. An amiibo is an amiibo in the same way that a pizza is a pizza.

CiDeRmAn · 09-08-2018 1:43pm

But Amiibo are just a big sc.... wait now... thought I was someone else there for a second....

seraphimvc · 09-08-2018 2:02pm

Where are these dealz that sells video game? I actually was looking for it last week and I cant find one in city center

I also want some discounted amiibos

johnnyskeleton · 13-08-2018 11:38am

I'm toying with the idea of buying a switch and so far this seems to be the best deal I can find:

https://www.smythstoys.com/ie/en-ie/video-games-and-tablets/console-bundle-deals/nintendo-switch-console-bundle-deals/nintendo-switch-grey-and-select-game/b/800290

Smiths €339.99 for console and super mario world. They are also selling zelda for €59.99.

Is that a good deal?

Yeah, console is €330 by itself.

I've been on the lookout for one for months, have a oneforall voucher since Christmas that I've been dying to spend on either a Switch or a new TV. Haven't seen any deals that have made me pull the trigger for a Switch.

It's over a year old now and I thought that prices would have dropped below the €300 mark by now.

Nintendo very rarely do price cuts. Expect the Switch to still be €330 in two years time.

Nintendo Switch Console Bundle with Super Mario Odyssey from Argos on Ebay is £275, less than €310 converted. I'd advise to act fast though, if you want it.

Doesn't Argos' ebay usually cancel orders to Parcel Motel/ Wizard?
