E-shoppers pounce for €69 PCs

SHOPPERS thought they had landed the bargain of the year when Littlewoods were offering a home computer and monitor for €69 on its Irish website.

Those who spotted the deal moved quickly to scoop up the Compaq mini desktop that was also on sale on the British website for £469 (€550).

However despite some shoppers receiving order confirmations Littlewoods the company said the price displayed on the website was done so in error and it would not be selling the computers for €69.
