Follow on from here

Got back from Morrisons about an hour ago and surprisingly, was a good boy. Could have spent so much morel...



So yeah, now I'm in a pickle...
Too many choices!!

The games were identical to the photos in previous post, 360 and ps3@£25, Wii@£15 (including Mario Kart + Wheel and Brawl) and DS@£12 (including Guitar Hero). Limitations to the deal are that only one title per transaction and a max of five titles per transaction.

*Edit - should point out though, the PC and ps2 games aren't in the offer*

Dang! Thats a great haul there man. Well played Morrisons.

It suprises me too why the big supermarkets dont offer these deals more often. For example, Tesco offer cheaper deals on dvd's and music so i figured why not tap into the gaming market too?

My mind is blown... I can't get my round this.

@Demios - Cheers, now after a mad day of dashing around the place, I can hopefully try to make the choice as to what to play this evening... As for why the supermarkets dont do them more often, well, the only thing I can guess is that they dont buy enough units to qualify for discounts or not enough repeat business (or too many ship returns/unsold units). Any which way, has probably up until recently been seen as a niche market with not much potential for profit. Hopefully This is the dawn of a new era of supermarkets competing with games as well :)

@Clance - Offer runs the week of 8th till the 14th OR until stock runs dry... So yeah, maybe one day only. And Limitations comment was that you can buy up to 5 different titles but not 3 Mario Karts for example.

The nearest Morrison's to me is like 10 miles away :( I may have to go tomorrow on the bus and have a look see. I want me some Viva Pinata!

I love Morrisons because they always have taster stuff so you can practically have your lunch in their from the freebies

Epic!
