Zavvi and Woolworths online Christmas deals!

Friday, November 26th, 2010

While both Zavvi and Woolworths’ stores on the highstreet are now closed, their online shops have been bought up by retailers and thus remain open for business.

This Christmas Zavvi has a special promotional event called Mega Monday which offers up to 80% off selected items. Bargains may be had, so it might be something to check out.

Woolworths want to tempt gamers with a voucher code that offers £20 off any gaming and console bundle. One example is the Playstation 3 slim 320GB console with the Move starterpack for £285.

To claim this deal or any other console bundle you may find on their site, you will need this voucher code: ZQ179.

We’ll keep you updated if any other fresh deals crop up!

Amazon: ‘Black Friday’ Christmas Deals.

Monday, November 22nd, 2010

As mentioned in our previous blog post about Christmas promotional events, Amazon’s week-long special offer event titled ‘Black Friday’ has now begun.

So far, there are plenty of deals to take advantage of, but we have singled out a few games that may be of interest.

First up is FIFA 2011 for the Xbox 360 at £37.46 total. A 25% reduction in price.

GuitarHero 6 – Warriors of Rock for the PS3 is now £22.00, 56% off the original price of £49.99. It must be stressed that this is for the game only.

The avid PC gamer should not feel left out, as there seem to be a few good deals for PC games as well.
Fallout: New Vegas can be snapped up for £15.99 (original price was: £34.99)

Call of Duty: Black Ops is another nice find, but reduced a little bit less than the others, ending up at £34.99 (saving 13%).

And for those preferring to play Assassin’s Creed on the PC instead of the Xbox, Amazon gives you the option to pre-order Assassin’s Creed Brotherhood for £24.99, saving 38%.

We will continue to keep our eyes peeled on the incoming deals this week.

Online Christmas sales from Play.com and Amazon

Sunday, November 21st, 2010

Many online retailers are currently enticing potential customers with special Christmas deals and promotions. We’ve managed to find two that could offer you some exciting money-saving deals, but be aware that they only run for a limited period of time.

First up is:

Play.com: Monday Madness!

This Monday the 22nd of November, Play.com will have a one day promotion event titled ‘Monday Madness’ where there will be a wide range of products reduced by as much as 70% in price.

This could be a great opportunity to snap up a quality game for a bargain price.

Be sure to check it out!

And here is the second Christmas deal offered by Amazon:

Amazon.co.uk: Black Friday!

In contrary to what the name may suggest, this promotion from Amazon will last an entire week, starting this Monday the 22nd of November. New offers and money-saving deals will be added every day. We will keep our eyes peeled on this one and add any interesting deals that may crop up.
