Re: Fancy a free TV

Only if Murray wins Wimbledon though...what are the chances of him winning then?

Re: Fancy a free TV

It seems that this deal is available up until the final.

"Customers purchasing a TV from the site between 00.01 on Saturday 27 June until the beginning of the final match are eligible for the offer".

If this really is the case, this is a great deal!

Re: Fancy a free TV

Interesting idea; I wonder how they've covered themselves - side bet on Murray winning or some form of insurance ?
For a side bet, how would they have they guesstimated a suitable amount ?

Re: Fancy a free TV

Only thing is its not a free TV....your account is credited with the same amount you spent which you can then spend on something else. Good offer though if you are looking for a TV anyway.

Yeah but once you've bought something with the money, you've as good as got the TV for free.

Re: Fancy a free TV

I wouldn't call that free- closer to "buy one, get one free" (which would indeed be an option if Murray comes through).

Re: Fancy a free TV

They look pretty expensive though if Murray doesn't win. Struggling to find any of the tv's I've looked at for more money than they are charging. The Sony KDL 40W5500 can be had for nearly £100 less than CDiscount are charging, & with free delivery which you don't get with CDiscount. Anyone know if they price match?

Re: Fancy a free TV

Do the terms include anything about buying it and then if Murray doesn't win returning it under the 7 day distance selling policy?

Re: Fancy a free TV

If I am being a muppet please put me right but I can't find a TV bigger than 32" on this link...

Are they removing any TV worth having as the final approaches?
