Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

Didn't see this mentioned in the other threads...

Littlewoods currently selling it for £55, but there is a discount code which, when applied at checkout, will give you £25 off all orders over £50, bringing the price down to £30.

http://www.littlewoods.com/rf/p.do/m...duct=634363837

Code is ZQ266

They are also not using Royal Mail and show a delivery date of 10/11/09.

The link is for PS3 version - but I'm sure the same deal applies to the 360 version...

re: Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

Incredible! What a deal! The delivery date comes up with Wednesday 11th, a day after it comes out, so if you can wait a day or two after it's released, you can save yourself £15+.

Nice work.

re: Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

The code also works with Very.co.uk (a subsidiary of Littlewoods), where MW2 is only £45. Add something like the Spa gift set to top the price upto £50.

You'll probably get some negativity because some people don't believe that Littlewoods honour codes, but I've personally never had any problems.

re: Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

I'm really tempted to order this now!

Although I have ordered at Coolshop and have been sent an invoice, I'm thinking of selling it off on ebay on my costprice + P&P so at about 39 quid.

From very.co.uk, its costing me 29 quid for game plus spa set.... Price includes delivery.

I doubt I'll get it at a cheaper price than this tbh...

re: Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

Yeah. Seems there's no way to cancel orders with Littlewoods. Was gonna go with Very.co.uk and get the spa set too, lol. Oh well.

Special Edition Modern Warfare 2 (now with spa set) - LOL!

re: Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

£23.95 del. by Wednesday via very.co.uk. using code.

£45 minus £25 voucher code plus £3.95 del.

Not a bad deal

ps I've never had a problem with codes from Littlewoods\very, but its always advisable to keep an eye out in the next couple of weeks.

re: Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

I thought the code only worked on orders over £50, hence the need to buy the spa set?

re: Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

I hate you all!

ShopTo balls up my pre-order by not accepting my card, regardless the fact I've had the game ordered for over a month, and still won't accept my card when I go to update the details.

And, of course, the bargain in the Hardened Edition that is mentioned here, is now sold out!

Sorry!

Nice work. However, I would be careful, because Littlewoods take the full amount then refund the difference you save with the voucher a few days later. Keep an eye on your card statement and make sure that they do refund you.

re: Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

Just cancelled my order with Amazon for the Littlewoods deal.

About 3 weeks ago I got 2100 Live points for £7 from them so I thought I would give them the benefit of the doubt and try again.

I only realised tonight (while ordering MW2) that they charge you full price and then refund the discount. Just checked my statement - they did the refund on the live points

re: Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

Many many thanks for this
I don't care when it arrives, i'm not overly bothered about the game. But at that price i know i can sell it come new year and it will proabbly be £40 new still lol


Whats the likelyhood of them not commiting to the deal because of abuse of the code?

re: Modern Warfare 2 - £30 (No longer available)

I also took advantage of the promotional code Littlewoods did a a month or so ago and got the cheap MS points. They did hold up their end of the bargain and refund the difference a few days later. I'm guessing alot of people used that code. So I expect this code will got alot of use also, and they will hopefully again, refund the money saved.

It says the full price on my order also, that's because they refund the money you save with the voucher a few days later.

As I said to travid earlier, the voucher states you must spend £50+ for the voucher to work, if you're failing to do that then they may not refund the money you would save with the voucher.

As I said, I have not had a problem in the past, but you still have to be careful and check your bank statement/cc statement.
