    Website me arse! I looked for the phone number for the Letterkenny store on the website and it listed an out of service number.

    Anyhow I found it in the local phone book and rang and they have their sale on now.

    When i was in today about 1 o clock, they were only starting to put on sale stickers to a couple of DVD's.

    No great reductions. €2 - €3 off most DVD's (Blade Runner - Final Cut for €16.99 etc.)

    Nothing amazing.

    But on the plus side, i made a fecking great buy in one of the local record stores in Sligo who were having a clearance with all DVD's half price. I had a voucher for €50 and i got all the following:

    Complete Fawlty Towers Boxset - €20
    My Left Foot - €5
    The Butcher Boy - €7.50
    21 Grams - €2.50
    Super Size Me - €2.50
    Speed - €5
    The Notebook (for the girlfriend.. of course) - €7.50

    Xtra-Vision will never top that methinks!

    One of my boys was in the Letterkenny store just over an hour ago and while he said there were items marked as being on sale there were no bargains at all and a couple of the shelves were empty.

    So they were either cleaned out or still to commence the sale.

    Basquille,where in Sligo,I may be up that way saturday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,437 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    It's The Record Room on Grattan Street.

    It's across the road from the new Halifax store.

    Mightn't be much left on Saturday though - some great deals in there and the majority of the stuff left was Irish "music" DVD's like Declan Nerney, Big Tom (etc).

    Went to Xtravision tonight and it is one of the worst 'sales' I have ever seen. More like a 'let's get rid of the **** that no one will buy' sale.

    thirded, terrible sale. i saw titanic for €9.99, hardly a good price for a 10 year old film. very little to be happy about. all i got was transformers 2 disc for €22.99 (reduced from €27.99)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45,437 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Yep, another one in the crap sale camp.

    Best things on offer were seasons of The Simpsons for €19.99.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,871 ✭✭✭Conor108


    Went into the malahide one this morning. Nothing great but I got metal gear solid 2 pre owned for 7 quid

    True.. but they've been at that price for a couple of weeks now.

    No reductions on games or anything! :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,790 ✭✭✭tvnutz


    No new games,which I was p!ssed off about myself,but the older ones have been reduced,Bioshock for 360 at €29.99 being the most notable. Godfather collection at €19.99,new Billy Connolly dvd down to €11.99 from €24.99,Battlestar Galactica season 2 down from €54.99 to €29.99. Alias Season 5 down from €59.99 to €29.99. (alias is €90 in Virgin and I bought it for €39.99 in HMV just before Christmas. There are some good deals on boxsets.

    I know you can get nearly all of this stuff cheaper online,everything is.but as far as shops go,the above are some good deals and there are a few more in the boxsets and the dvds for sale.

    The games are a joke though,I thought the newer games would get at least a fiver knocked off but nothing at all is just sh!tty to be honest.

    Does anybody know what bundles they have for a ps3 during the sales and how much they are?

    Thanks


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 829 ✭✭✭standbyme

    Terminator 6-disc = E25 - E5 off
    Mission Impossible = 5-disc E15 - E5 off
    Sopranos series = 1-5 E30 - E5 off

    Some ex rental boxsets E25-30.
