    Just to update:

    Overwatch out of stock so that's a no go. I've added 500GB Fifa Bundle, Halo 5, Forza Horizon 3, GOW4, Mafia 3, and GTA V for £317. I didn't go as far as adding the discount code because I couldn't remember my password.

    discount code doesnt work, it only works with account its linked to it says.or can someone get it to work?

    If anyone is looking for a good wireless router, the Nighthawk R7000 is current 40% off on Amazon. It's a couple of years old at this stage, but it's still an upgrade on most wireless routers, and almost certainly an upgrade on anything that an ISP will give you.

    It's here.

    Very tempted by this myself, I hate having to rely on the router that Virgin have given me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 416 ✭✭Faker74

    Edit: offer closes tomorrow.

    If you need a modem router the Asus Dsl AC68U is down to £150. Another £5 will get you the dsl version of the Nighthawk.

    Both are extremely good routers. Setup on the Asus is a breeze, all the Irish ISP settings are baked into the router even Skys whose settings can be difficult to get.

    Could that Asus be used as a replacement for the F2000? Just swap it out?

    Yeah. The ASUS has a vdsl/adsl modem in it so it can just swap out the Huawei you get from Eircom, make sure you get the dsl ac68u and not the rt ac68u. The Nighthawk D7000 will also do the job.

    A router/modem combo usually works better than an all in one, but can be trickier to set up and rrquires 2 power sockets.

    Has anyone here ordered the bundle from tesco direct for delivery to parcel motel ? I ordered it yesterday and I got an email saying the games are ready for collection from 3pm in my local store (I put down newry as I'm working there a bit at the minute) and that the console is waiting to be shipped , is this an error and they will actually send them to parcel motel or will I have to pick them up from the store ? I don't mind collecting them it's just I'm not up there on Friday , thanks 👍

    Borderlands : Handsome collection is showing as free on the store, they'll likely cancel it but no harm in trying.

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/p/borderlands-the-handsome-collection-unlock-bundle/bvrk77xxgbwb

    Spotted on reddit

    EDIT: Seeems like it could be just tied to a free play weekend :(

    Not much of a bargain, considering the cost, but Microsoft are giving away an Xbox One S with FIFA with every 256GB+ Surface Pro/Book. Useful if you're looking for a great Laptop/Convertible and you want an Xbox at the same time

    Surface Pro deals are here.

    Surface Book deals are here.

    The Tesco orders automatically default to "click and collect" so that items are collected from the store nearest to your delivery address.

    You need to specify when making the order that you want it to the address you have given. Also be careful that the order isn't split into multiple items. When I initially placed my order, it was sending the games to my parcel motel, and the console to a store. Had to cancel and reorder.

    I posted this in the Deals with Gold thread, but it bears repeating here:
    Right guys, a few things to note.

    I've edited a couple of posts that made reference to false addresses. Remember, you can talk all you want about the deals found on foreign markets, but don't make reference to how to do so, as it'll almost certainly require the use of a false address. This includes talk of paying tax in another country, as again, that would most likely need a false address.

    This next one isn't a requirement, but you don't actually need to say that you're on holidays on the time, you can talk about deals you got on the Canadian store all you want, just not how to do so.

    Another thing I'd like people to do, is to not clutter up the threads with "PM ME PLS!!!", find someone that looks like they know what they're talking about and PM them instead if you must (I don't think anyone would mind getting a PM request for help), or as Stone Deaf said, Google it.

    Now, back to bargain alerts!
