Not so much a lesson learned, but a lesson confirmed
31 December 2007
We needed to buy at the request of a friend the Sing Star for their PS3 for New Yers Eve. It was too late to order on line, which is always my preference and the reason for this was shortly to be confirmed!
I decided to head off on 30th December in the madness of sale frenzy and try to buy this game. We trawled a retail park nearby for almost 3 hours. As a novice shopper I was pushed, trampled and elbowed as shoppers with more savvy than me headed for their sale bargain.
Needless to say the game was sold out everywhere and we came home empty handed, but knowing that I would never set foot in the sale crowds again! Once at home I checked online at our local Argos.co.ukonly to find the game there in stock! I clicked to reserve and the next day spent 4 minutes in the store and came home with my purchase.
Now that’s how it’s done!
