So I bought the elite controller with a free game for £99.99 for the Xbox one, the cashier said I could have forza 6 standard edition download code for an extra penny. Bargain.
616/9103 for the add on in store when you are paying.

Yep this worked spent 10 quid on something that wasn't gaming related and asked them to try the code. They were puzzled and I just said it was a black Friday thing. Swiftly walked out. Redeemed and working. Thanks!

It's not against the rules if you sell it for 1p...
x80ssm
26 Nov 16#159
thank you. i wont sell the codes on here then bcoz its against the rules
If you're looking to sell a Forza 6 code, bear in mind that one of the most important rules is that profiteering.is not permitted.

Glad you got one,getting it for £12 was much less than i was gonna pay for it anyway,so i still see it as a bargain,so it all works out,have a good one.

Thanks OP. Had reserved the elite controller (with Gears of War) this morning and needed to spend at least a penny to take the spend to £100 - in order to use a store card £10 voucher. Staff member added the catalogue no' to my reservation and the code was printed.

I went into Argos earlier and was told by the manager this was under no circumstances to be sold and supposedly it was part of an old bundle deal. The sales associate I spoke to before the manager intervened also said the same thing. She said that this would be stopped as no game should be sold for 1p LOL So well done to those that managed to get it but it looks like they are clamping down on it now. The manager said I have seen this on HUKD and it should be taken down!
x80ssm
25 Nov 16#129
yep same to me at that store but then went to cricklewood and got it. didnt purchase anything but the 1p game

25 Nov 16#117
Wife went in to buy one, but was told by the member of staff that an internal email has been sent out saying they should not sell the item...so I guess it's over.

I just tried this in Edinburgh. The bemused cashier ping-ponged between staff (after printing out the code) before finally being told it was 'only given away with Halo'.

Sod scalping them on ebay (the price will crash anyway) just cant be arsed, so handed them to 3 or my sons friends on Facebook, 3 happy kids for the sake of 3p :smiley: Merry Christmas! :smiley: Thanks OP!
PS: I added one code to each of the 3 other items i went it to buy (all non-gaming items and ranging from £5 to £45) and each one printed out it's own unique game code. Just heard back and they have all installed just fine :smiley:

Well that was eventful experience but the party may be over now.
Walked into argos give the item number and asked for a stock check, erm forza 6 1p with a bemused look on her face.
Nice i'll take 10, erm it's only allowing 9 that's fine i'll take 9.
Paid for 9, received 8 and the machine refuse to print out the 9th...the manager comes over codes are paid for i grabbbed the 8 printed.
Cashier explains that system has printed 8 out of 9 codes, they try to put a seperate order through and the system said 'you are not authorized to sell this product'
It was at that moment i knew the jig was up, was he expecting me to hand over the codes? No he apologies refusely congratulated me on getting the system to glitch and refunds me 1p
