After looking around the net for a while at reviews of the eagerly awaited Nintendo 3DS. I started to make note of the pre-order prices as I am pretty sure I going to give in and get one (even though the launch line up is questionably poor).
I started at the obvious place, Amazon. Here I saw that their best price for pre order is £197. Considering the RRP for the 3DS is around £230, I thought this was the best buy and pretty much had my mnd set.
Then on my weekly shop at Sainburys I saw their offer for the 3DS at £199.00 with 1000 nectar points. Now I havent done the math but this does work out at a slightly better offer if you use your nectar points and shop at Sainsburys enough.
Then I finally came across the cracking deal. I heard that at Morrisons they have slashed £10.00 off Amazons selling price and are pushing out the 3DS at £187.00. It only costs 10.00 to pre-order.
From looking around a bit I have changed my mind a few times but I don’t think this price will be beaten.
I thought I’d put this out there as I am sure a few people will find this useful. Of course if anyone knows of a place where the 3DS is being offered at a better price, please let me know in the comments below and I will update the post to include it.
£187.00 is definitely not too bad of a price for a brand new handheld console. I am just waiting for the decent games to follow. Theres only so long I can play Pilot Wings Resort.

Amazon have just dropped their price to compete with Morrisons. Seems to be a price war going on. Get your 3DS at this price before March the 31st and before stocks run out.
