Stocks are store-specific, and there are only a handful of units left across the UK. Worse still, the Sainsburys site has no real-time stock checking, so it will let you order the item if there aren't any in your area.
Then, to add insult to injury, if you haven't unticked the "no substitutions" box, they will arrive with an alternate drive and try to charge you £100+.
But if you have ticked the "no substitutions" box, they just won't bother even turning up - they just cancel the order without even telephoning or emailing you.
Loads of us got stuffed by Sainsburys with this offer last week.

Not available for home delivery, if it is for you then make sure you select "no substitutes"! Click and collect may be possible for some, not for me. All stores were too far away.

Yep. That's normal, and we all did it last week - just look through the thread I linked to, especially the last couple of pages.
However, don't be surprised if they don't turn up at your scheduled delivery time. If your local store doesn't have this in stock, they will just cancel the order without telling you.
But good luck, and I genuinely hope you get one.
