We have been keenly following the news about the release of the Xbox One and PS4, and getting more and more excited as their release becomes imminent – just in time for Christmas.<\/p>\n

Imagine our horror when we received an email detailing ASDA Direct’s latest offers and discovered that they intended to launch the XBox One at a price \u00a33429. We have been saving up for our console in the past few months, but this price put it firmly out of our reach.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Looking around, we discovered that Amazon lists the Xbox One for \u00a3429<\/a>, Tesco are selling it at \u00a3429<\/a> and Currys are also selling it at \u00a3429<\/a>!<\/p>\n

The eagerly awaited console is due to be released on the 22nd November 2013, and we are certainly expecting a rush on – but surely not at ASDA’s extortionate price?<\/p>\n

So, you can imagine our amusement when we subsequently received this email from ASDA Direct:<\/p>\n
