    I have one (Guitar Hero Live) reserved for the Xbox 360 in Cruises Street Limerick for €29. Don't need it as it seems I can't use the guitar with the first few Rock Band games. First to PM me their email address and I'll forward the reservation email on.


    Gone to Kilteragh.

    They've apparently cancelled all reservations in all the stores for this according to the manager I spoke to. Good luck to anyone trying to nab one.

    I would imagine it would fall under "invitation to treat" so don't have to sell it to you.

    They don't have to give it to you. It comes up at full price on all the tills.

    He called the head office who told him all orders are cancelled.

    Then I just got really lucky because I picked it up at €28.99. The girl at the till was deathly hungover so I don't think she noticed the error!

    Got mine in Clonmel with no issues. Tried to pay at the self serve first but came up as full price, then went to the till and they said the same. I brought the girl out to the stock check machines and showed her the price. Came back and gave it to me at €28.99. If anyone wants a Wexford code I have one spare

    I think I got a pretty good bargain in Argos today.

    Limited edition Xbox one console
    Forza 6
    Fallout 4.
    Halo Guardians
    Guitar Hero Live with Guitar Xbox one
    Guitar Hero Live with Guitar Xbox 360

    and I got change back from €450.

    Prices for the reserves on Halo and the Guitar Hero games were coming up different. A LOT different in the case of the Guitar Hero games. So much so that the girl actually went a way twice to check it out before manually changing the price for me. She herself reckoned it was a misprice.

    That's a great haul for €450.

    Just got it in Cruises St. Limerick for €28.99. Also had a €10 voucher for Argos so happy days.

    Checked the reservation on the self service machine first and it came up at €105.

    Went up to the counter, gave him the number and acted surprised when he quuoted €105. Showed him the email. He checked with a manager. I saw a shrugging of shoulders and he came back and put it through for €28.99. He was pleased for me an' all :-)

    Many thanks to Van Zan for the email and the OP for the bargain.

    I can pay this forward as I have a reservation for Clonmel which expires tomorrow night. If anyone wants it then DM me your email address. First come, first served. No guarantee they will honour though I guess.
