Cold 6p if they put it in a bag :smiley:

Quidco?

lol not laughed like this on a forum for a while. Keep up the good banter people :laughing:

Don't worry about BB... she's old skool!

Don't be put of by the nonsense and trolling seen here. It was a good deal and I bought two. Best 2p I ever spent :smiley: Keeping posting!

Unbelievable, hottest deal yet only one sold.

I tryed to buy this online it came up at £5.99 at also at checkout....I not amusedoO

Damn £5.99 online

Yes thanks, thats what I meant :smiley:

So it's relevant

I found a bunch of similar but not quite the same 1A 5VDC USB socket power supplies in a PC Wurries near me a few years ago, for 99p each, so I effected the purchase of three of them. I’m never quite sure if they’re underpowered or not. They can charge a phone, but sometimes slower than I expect, sometimes quite fast enough. I use one on a Raspberry Pi 2, which I think is slightly underpowering it (I see the little square quad of colours in the top right corner, which I believe is an underpower signal?) but otherwise seems to cause it to work happily. A Pi 2 should be better off running with slightly more current than 1A though.

Rather cynical, but no I don't work at Curry's but what does it matter if I do or don't? It is offensive to most, wherever you work is not irrelevant.

hands up who can spot the currys minimum wage worker :laughing:

same in London

£5.99 in Witney ....

Hahaha. Dead right, you and Lee both, and their own grammar shows serious gaps too!

But not limited to the above.Pence or or penny depends on the usage. Either can be plural and either can be noun or adjective. Why risk showing the limits of your own linguistic ability by criticising others? Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.
Obviously you don't live in Sixpenny Handley,Dorset SP5 5ND and have probably never owned a ten shilling note, but if make a habit of criticising others, then sooner or later you will find out what a four penny one is!
Half a pound of tu(two!)ppenny rice
Half a pound of treacle

​Because they lack them in real life. It makes them feel important and manly, instead of the feeble, petty, sad individuals they really are.

They are £5.99 the 1p is for write off purposes, perhaps the colleague that served you was feeling generous

Don't forget TCB. Click and collect Rodders.

Curry's Oldham £5.99 at the till..

Found it in my local curry's. Scanned at £5.99

When having a penny on you is useful

Found one left in Curry's Beckton. £5.99 at the till. Left at the till.

All sold out in Bolton Currys; in PC World it is scanning at £5.99 :disappointed:

​the irony is strong in my family! my father has it and I have it!!!

Drove to Currys £1.20, parked in shopping centre £2.40, bought a Costa latte £2.65, bought a 1p item!
Bargain

why the hell are people so fussy .... its just for 1 damn pence.... get it or get lost...

It's like m and s food, it's not just food but it's m and s food. iPhone Is not just a phone but an iPhone. Every other phone is a phone. Hope that clarifies it for you

1 amp is slow but for 1p im not gonna complain. i might buy a **** load and knock em out for a squid on ebay.. Hello Vegas lol

Haha, well I wouldnt worry too much about that as there's no chance of that for sure!

Forget it...It's a Tesco-like con

USB Plug ..... today that has to stand for Unbelievably Stupendous Bargain Plug!!
Ta for posting, will be the best 1p spent if I can get me hands on one :smiley: xx

Haha, good one :smiley:

Though to be fair, I don't mind that quite so much - in fact, I think some people call generic tablets 'iPad', it kind of did start things going I guess, though I'm not a fan of iOS on any device.

And I assume you will want a government grant for having them fitted to your house?

....and it's illegal to refer to your iPad as a tablet. :smirk:

The old 'How do you know someone has an iPhone? They tell you' is so, so true isn't it?

Could you not have just forgotten your phone charger?

Imagine if someone had forgotten their charger for say, an S6 Edge - a similarly expensive phone, do you think they would have said 'I forgot my S6 Edge charger'?

Nothing personal OP, it just makes me chuckle every time :smiley:

Yup Curry hoax to get you in---learning
from Tesco?

Not in any Manchester store or, Ashton, They all scan at full price

Big question is has any one managed to get 1 at this price apart from the person who posted it. It seems it a hoax or 1 off for some reason or another.

nice one garry you sold one for a penny :-)

I hope you are having a nice weekend away - now stop messing about with your phone! :stuck_out_tongue:

think I will wait for few days as will be cheaper on Black Friday :stuck_out_tongue::stuck_out_tongue:

Sounds like you need to replace your 'old' non USB wall sockets to these:

is this available on BOGOF

i will try bespoke to see if they can get the price down further

Not got any in Crewe currys just been in

i want proof op has an iphone.
good deal if u can get it.

Or he'll be promoted to head of marketing..

Imagine the increase on footfall of visitors entering the store, or secondary purchases made due to their visit for this charger, or the heat on hukd keeps this curry brand hot...

I can't remember the last time I stepped into curry maybe 5-6 years, I'll b visiting on Monday - I,m tired of trying to persuade people to go upstairs/downstairs to get me the usb plug.... Usb should be a standard for wall sockets these day!!!

I need at least 4 upstairs and 3 downstairs.

​Is that you Garry?

​That's the friendly, customer orientated face of Currys talking.

They wouldn't let me have one because I was a penny short :wink:

You know it!

Just bought the last 6 from my local. Heat added

How do you "like" a comment when using the hokukdeals app?

Post of the month, and I thought I came out with some quirky comments :smile:

You are my hero of the month.

Hotukdeals keep removing comments. I wonder what the point of this website is, if they do so? Might as well pack up shop now? But happy to leave comments up, when people **** you off. Shame on you guys!

Why don't you go the whole hog, after badgering and further refine your maths using technique of rounding to one decimal place so it is 0.2, which is what that guy had originally.

I reported it but the button didn't work so that's why I posted it....... lol....... I wanted to post 3 rather than include my comments in 1......... double lol......... load of verbal diarrhoea...... priceless

The actual price of this item is not 1p and is definitely a mistake made by the cashier. The code that has been used to reduce it to 1p is there for store use only and is a way for the store to take the stock off the system so it can be used to power demo units around the store.

What a great offer

I like to see this now. lmao

Can I pay by card?

lol, and you fell for it again. You dumb smuck!

Quidco?

You imagination is pretty far fetched, but I like your crazy ass thinking. I say nearly as wacky as me at times. I like way you try to put the morals of story, unfortunately currys don't have any of these, or marbles come to think of it.

A quick response back, and never check what I wrote, considering the time i sent the message.
Watch out the grammar police are about guys.

Why such small men have big balls on the internet, is beyond me.

Great price.....wish it was on ebay for the flash 20% sale. I'll sit tight for a few weeks and see if it gets any cheaper for black friday.

Have some heat! (For both the deal and the entertaining read on this thread) :-)

If you want to be offensive to people, try to use a little imagination and avoid using American English. Not only does it make you look like a clown, but there are plenty of good, old-fashioned, English English expressions you could have used. Over and out!

Did they try to sell you a £20 extended warranty on the item op?

Why don't you learn how to spell "grammar"?

You've gone to a remarkable amount of effort to recount that story, heat for that alone (and, perhaps making me chuckle!)

Don't worry, the grammar police have already been called in an earlier post. Any constructive on topic comments to post?

Well done to the OP, great find :smiley:

The OP is reporting on his experience of purchasing an item, and posted a copy of the receipt. You can't say that his action will cause this apparent disciplinary any more than you can blame the Archduke Ferdinand for being shot at the start of WW1. Picture the scene....


"Good morning wife. Shall we go to Sarajevo today to buy new-fangled electric gadget?"
Wife reply: "Ah yes husband. We go to shop called Currys and buy item." So saying, they get into the motor carriage and drive to the shops in Sarajevo.

They enter Currys. It is a small electrical store selling everything from bulbs to newly invented electric mangle. Mrs Ferdinand gets very excited by all of the gadgets that she sees: battery operated wooden spoon; 55inch cabinet for a yet to be invented technology; batteries, bulbs, torches, accumulators, fuse wire, electric candles and an electric cattle prod. She chooses a packet of fuse wire, and approaches the cash desk.

"Good morning Frau Ferdinand. That will be one krone please. Would you like to extend your guarantee for five years? It covers you against theft, water ingress, breakdown, civil unrest, war with a neighbour and full scale war. It's only 100 Krones."

"No thank you, young man. I just take fuse wire."

He fills in the sales ledger and gives Mrs Ferdinand her receipt and a cheeky wink. Mr Ferdinand carries the item towards the door. The manager approaches the cash desk. "Adolf," he asks. "Did you just sell a 6 Krone fuse wire pack to that couple for 1 kone?"

"Yes sir I did."

"You idiot. That is a promotional offer only available when the customer buys an electric toaster, invented only in 1909."

The manager is mad. He chases Mr and Mrs Ferdinand to the car park, demanding back the fuse wire. Archduke Ferdinand waves to the manager, assuming that he is simply waving them off. They drive on, and the enraged manager decides there is only one way to retrieve the bargain fuse wire. He pulls a revolver out of his pocket, aims, fires and kills the Archduke dead.

Adolf, the sales assistant, witnesses this and is so traumatised that he resigns and gets a job in neighbouring Germany working for the government. (He worked his way up into government but that is another story.)

Now, back to the one penny charger. Is the customer responsible for the actions of the assistant? No. He simply bought his one penny charger and posted an image of the receipt here. Was the Archduke responsible for his own death? No, he simply purchased a packet of fuse wire for one krone. The manager's over-reaction killed the Archduke, not the transaction. And, my friend, this action led to World War One and the deaths of many millions of people.

Let us hope that the OP's purchase of a charger for one penny does not lead to another war. But if it does, it won't be his responsibility. Do not blame the OP for WW3. Blame Currys.

3 posts when 1 could have sufficed. Posting for mods when you only had to click on the post and report....... but then you wouldn't up your post count...... and having the audacity to say everyone's wrong when each item is subject to vat however the billing is composite but strictly speaking the vat charge is still on the item sale.... Good luck finding a dictionary.

good old HUKD .. over 1000 degrees for a single purchase :smiley:

this should go in the "hey, look at what i randomly found!" section ..

1A is quite a slow charger but cannot complain as it's just a quid.

just bought one from Ikea for £7. This is a bargain!

If it's a store/regional decision to clear stock, surely you'd be shouting the price as "ONLY 1p TO CLEAR!" not having them priced at £5.99 then hoping it gets onto HUKD? This seriously smacks of till point error, is likely to be a one-off where a discount promo code from a bundle was scanned not the normal selling barcode.

Has anyone else actually managed to buy one at 1p?

​*You're

Your all wrong. Curry's and ever other retailer don't have the VAT charged on every single individual item. Imagine the paperwork for that, would be ridiculous! They pay VAT for their overall sales total in any tax period. So all the 1p sales would be added up together anyway, along with every other sale.

Being put on a disciplinary for that would never hold up in employment law. And I seriously doubt anyone at Curry's HQ or the individual store are that diligent or pro-active about keeping tabs on their employees. The OP just posted a deal in good faith, lets not bash them!

If you want the deal, buy the associated product, get the 1p plug and take back the associated product later on for a refund.

Actually that is wrong. This could be a store/area/division decision to clear out old stock. So yes for the most part when bought with, wbw, deals are normally just that. They can be used in other ways in certain conditions.
The offers button on Eclipse is there for a reason.
As someone who worked in stores for 7 years, was part of management, divisional merchandising and a company forum representative, my comment is sound.
All I'm saying is that in this instance it could be perfectly fine, not 100% bad as you state.

Am seriously cringing at your reply - you can just sense your anger when writing it. It's toe curling :laughing:

Ummm, how was the original poster supposed to know that though? You're being a bit heavy on the OP.

Peoples comments definitely make this site *grabs some popcorn*

I notice you made sure to tell him that with your best grammar

Don't you worry about them Sonny Jim, the spelling police are going to kick your ****! :stuck_out_tongue:

I've learned so much today.

​Why don't you tell the grammer police

1 pence is correct

****

I may well pop up to Kingston park tomorrow

​I'm afraid that effingetc is correct. 0.167 to one decimal place = 0.2.

instore scan glitch..... 1 in a 10000 chance it will scan wrong.

being a bigger badger I have to correct you. In the UK it is not possible to have an amount of vat lower than the smallest denomination of tender. So if you purchased only one at 1p the vat payable would have to be zero. if you purchased 10, at 10p the vat would be 1.67p a nd therefore due to available tender charged at 1p :smiley:

Bloody hell that's cheap good find op

lol seriously?! my comment about spending a penny got deleted

the one a guy made about how him and his mate apparently indulge in a bit of double penetration with my mother remain however
(not this thread)

I did. If you read it again, you realize I am asking if anyone else can confirm that they got it at the price you paid.

The words goose and chase come to mind as well as 33 replies from people who should get out more.

Work at a Currys store and that is a when bought with code !!!! £5.99 to anyone not buying main product .

It was put through the till using code 112043 by the stock item to check for availability is 009993. Stores generally shouldn't process a standalone item with the first code.
So either it's promo to ditch old stock, in which case it could be store specific or the OP got lucky.
Yes it will be national but only if the staff member uses the right code.

Cold. Not a BOGOF.

That receipt shows it as being a add on code, for example you buy a ipod and get a free charger, so is probably £5.99 in stores unless you press customer offer button,

Waiting for a price drop

1 PENNY. Pence = plural - 2 or more pennies...

Cold 6p if they put it in a bag :smiley:

Cold - too expensive

can I use PayPal?

I call BS on this right away. Any proof other than you found it in your local store? :smirk:

whats the barcode of the product

Damn £5.99 online

Heated.. Just for the fact you only bought one.

I would have paid on credit card...just incase

i need some of these..may have a look tomorrow!

reserve and collect 1.05% cash back available :smile:

Haha, I'm very sorry!

Any promo codes for this .

you've just ruined my month

I think he means elsewhere

can anyone else confirm this is 1p then?

thats great, I bet it cost them more than 1p opening and closing automatic electric door

and 0.2p is VAT

Bargain! Heat added

Trying to work out how to post a picture of receipt in comments via my
Mobile?
