I think the one on the right is having it every day - the packet of Ginsters for a £1 that is.
Sure looks that way. laugh
She's the one that caught my eye when I saw them on a news clip - better than all the rest put together.

Products to go on sale 28 November, with prices revealed on 27 November:

Polaroid 40in TV - current price £249 - Black Friday price £139
Xbox 360 bundle with Halo 4 and Forza Horizon - current price £349 - Black Friday price £99
LG BP135 Blu-ray player - current price not listed.
£349 for an xBox 360? Who the hell would buy that at that price? I'm surprised that they are even still selling them.

Nothing wrong with the prophet Muhammed handing out TV sets.

Jesus was a cheap git and only handed out fish and buns, probably why Christianity is seeing dwindling numbers of followers whereas Islam is on the rise.

In the same way, that when you see footage of the Boxing Day sales large numbers of the punters who are first in the queue are hiding their faces with bags/hoodies/their hands.

Nothing to do with being on benefits or not legally allowed to be here, of course.

Reporters are there to capture the moment! biggrin
According to ttter not only were they there to capture the moment, they had paid the ladies in question £500 each to stage it.

Not even remotely surprised to be honest. This country is so fked.

Why pay someone when the animals will do it for free?

That's an inflated (original RRP?) price, shirley. Would cost well under 200 notes.

I recall buying a base spec (4GB) 360 console for my brother almost 4 years ago (was middle of December). Not a bundle - no games included.
But only cost me £120 - £130 iirc.

The 360 didn't even cost that much at release!

Having walked past their store (and spotting APR%), who'd in their right mind would use them?

Nought wrong with the latest 360. I bought one a couple of months back. Same bundle for £200.

Was going to get the One but decided it wasn't worth the extra. Games are cheaper to.

Would have loved getting one for £99 though, especially as I've just bought one for my son for Christmas.

Cost me £199 but the hard drive is twice as big and it has FIFA 15.

Those scenes will have alienated a lot of traditional Tesco shoppers. Very bad PR. They seem to be on a downward spiral lately..

Absolutely crazy scenes. All fighting over cheap st.

Most of the people fighting don't look like they need to be at work the next morning. I'm seeing a lot of diversity too smile.

This country would be totally fooked if we had a genuine disaster situation.
