Dealspwner “Hkem” has emailed me with a heads-up about a voucher deal which he has also posted on HUKD. While it hasn’t got an awful lot of heat over there, I think it is worth pointing out to the gamers who might possibly have a Smyths store nearby.
It’s a bit of a roundabout method, but is a good way to get yourself an extra £5 discount on any purchases £30 and over. If you buy a £25 gift card in-store, present the voucher and they will credit it with an extra £5 for free – meaning £30 worth of games for £25.
Now, the voucher does say “One per household,” so it’s probably not possible for you to buy 8x £25 gift cards and get the £249.99 Playstation 3 Slim for £210. Probably.
A few words from the deal-finder himself:
I posted a deal worth looking at for gamers. It didn’t get much of an airing on the main site but will be of interest to gamers with a Smyths Toy Store nearby. I’ve found Smyths to be pretty competitive price wise with some great trade-in offers. The voucher gives you an extra £5 when you put £25 on a gift card or, to you and me, a £30 game for £25. Pretty nifty I thought.
Please let me know if you get any good bargains.
UPDATE: Too late – you were too slow and missed this hot deal! Why not subscribe to our email updates or RSS feeds to make sure that doesn’t happen again?
Hey Emma, thanks for posting this! It’s worth mentioning as well, that the £25 you put on the card could be made up of game trade-in and the giftcards can be used against anything instore – not just games. Good day to you all!
