No dont think this has been posted bud....tell all!!!

 

[Si]

Ooooo, I'm first to post something interesting on CS? this is a rarity.

basically... hit woolworths.co.uk, get black ops in your basket, head to the checkout and then enter the following codes:

ZZ018 - gives you £20 (only if you're a first time woolworths.co.uk buyer)

then...

XV04416 - gets you free delivery too!

Epic.

 

[RoryW]

Same as very.co.uk

 

[Jon.G]

Awesome Si.

Just done that. was going to get it tax free from work but this is even better.

 

[DrR]

Woop woop just ordered from woolworths to

 

[H182]

looks good. Like that they have changed it so killstreak rewards dont add to your killstreak.

This happened on consoles? Almost certain it didn't on PC, not like I could stick a turret somewhere and let it kill everyone till I got a new streak..

it never worked with sentry guns/care packages on consoles either.

 

[Scutch]

Still debating whether to get this or not.

Hmm.

Ah, so its only the harriers etc?

 

[Mr Pants]

Thanks for that Si. Just canceled my order with Amazon and ordered through this.

 

[172boost]

Anymore news on supermarket deals?
Also, what's the delivery date going to be with Woolworths?

 

[Gaz.]

Hmm.

I wasn't going to bother until I saw the Woolies deal.

 

[jamier27]

Their site indicates the 9th. (Release day).

I LOVE this killstreak, there is no hiding from it! It's kill or be killed!

 

[treemanx]

vouchers codes dont work...

 

[bollis]

Erm.... All of you that went through the Woolworths.co.uk website... Did you get a confirmation order email? Told a few people about this and they couldn't find the box for the promotional code so checked it out myself. Chekout process is totally different and I couldn't login, sent password reminder and apparently I don't have an account.... Think we may have been stitched up!

 

[DrR]

My woolworths thing worked fine, only paid £25 through paypal to

 

[Si]

I didn't get an e-mail.... i did get confirmation page though (which I foolishly closed and didn't save) but when I log in it shows my order. Only strange thing is that it says "item value" at £45 + postage rather than showing what I actually paid. My paypal shows they only took £25 though

 

[Si]

vouchers codes dont work...

thing they pulled the code eventully mate, sooo many people jumped on it.

 

[treemanx]

They moved the game around to the woolworths entertainment site which doesn't allow the code. I've heard bad stuff about them not honouring the puchase because they don't follow the term and conditions associated with the voucher code.

 

[C.J]

I would have posted sooner, but last time no one believed me.

Woolies and Very (Littlewoods) are a nightmare at honouring codes, just check some of the AVF topics.

Some get charged full price (Debit cards) while others have their order held until weeks later before being cancelled.

Someone on AVF emailed them too, and their response was pretty bad.

 

[RoryW]

Which is why I left my Pre order at £36 placed else where. No biggy if very sod me off

 

[kev182cup]

Just think of the amount of times you will play this game people 40 quid is nothing. Just stick with the big names known for good service.

They're hardly back street dealers are they

 

[kev182cup]

Well they pulled this exact same thing last year on the same game and throughout the year on everything else so I'd hardly say there ruputable and trustworthy. Upto you if ya wanna waste ya time there's plenty of warnings out there saying otherwise.

 

[young_lew]

Question.

If I pre-order from play.com right now, what do you think is the likelihood of me receiving the game the day it comes out?

Is the pre-order list actually a list? I.e I'd be at the bottom of the list, OR is it like a group which will all receive the game on launch day?

 

[Dredz06]

you will get it at the same time everyone else that ordered it from play.com, regardless of when it was ordered

 

[kev182cup]

Yeah you'll get it realease day. I went with amazon and hoping I get it a day early. Lol

Dredz did ya see my time on nsfp? On the cops side. Battered ya mate. Lol

Apparently if you trade Medal of Honor in at HMV, you can get Black Ops for £7.99.
