Battlefield 3 [Limited Edition]/Dark Souls [Special Edition]/Ace Combat: Assault Horizon [Limited Edition]/Call Of Juarez: The Cartel/Driver: San Francisco, Xbox 360/PS3 – 2 for £48.69 delivered

This is a bit of a complicated one, bear with me, but the result is (hopefully) getting any two games from that list for a total of £48.69 (or £24.35 each).

Zavvi are running a promotion where if you buy a selected item of clothing for £17.99, you can get any of those games for £17.85. That’s £35.84 for game and an item of clothing, not a bad deal, but we can do better than that. The terms & condition state that you need to buy one of each item to get this pricing, but actually just buying one item of clothing lets you buy any two of the games.

So, pick an item of clothing from here, and add any two of these to your basket:
Battlefield 3 [Limited Edition], Xbox 360/PS3
Dark Souls [Special Edition], Xbox 360/PS3
Ace Combat: Assault Horizon [Limited Edition], Xbox 360/PS3
Call Of Juarez: The Cartel, Xbox 360/PS3
Driver: San Francisco, Xbox 360/PS3

That should come to a total of £53.69. Then apply coupon “VCFIVEOFF50” to get another fiver off.

Whilst this obviously is a mistake, since the item of clothing ships immediately I’m not sure there is much they will be able to do about it. They’ll likely charge you immediately, at least for the item of clothing, so they probably won’t be able to squirm out of fulfilling the entire order.

If you don’t like the sound of a potential bit of hassle just for a saving of ~£10-15, then I’d say avoid this offer. It might end up being more trouble than it is worth, but it’s certainly good pricing.

Usual The Hut group caveat applies. Their track record for customer service isn’t very good, but this is cheap.

Fight Night Champion, Crysis 2 & Need For Speed: Shift 2 Unleashed, PS3/Xbox 360 – £10ish each

Cheers to multiple people for the heads up on this. It seems that Tesco are selling these three games for about a tenner (£9.10 for Fight Night, £10.10 for Crysis 2 or Shift 2).

It seems not all stores have got the prices marked correctly on the shelf, but they are scanning in at these prices.
