Was £99, then 1/2 price, then £10 off. Just thought I'd share the tip. I've just bought one to power my mini 12v fridge, lights, radio etc. Can't go far wrong for £39.

Website says item 'should' be delivered by Thursday 14th. That's cutting it a bit fine.

Do the stores actually have these in stock or is it online only?

Might not power them all at the same time, be a little cautious

I bought mine in store. I checked one shop on Friday, but didn't have the car to pick it up, but they had it in. Then my local (very small) Woolworths did this afternoon.

And 650W is easily enough for my needs. My lights are less than 100W total and the stereo's 40w. Not sure what the fridge is, but it's only a small one, which I normally run off the cigarette lighter, so it can't be much. It also has a trip function so it turns its self off if you overload it.

B&Q were selling the same one off a couple of weeks ago - £33 each I think. Maybe a different colour but they all flow out of the same factory in China, I bought one about 3 years ago at what I thought was a bargain price of £58!
