Thanks for the information. Just ordered the silver Hill from go outdoors. Still think it's daft to rename a product... from what you've said go outdoors price match is actually a huge scam lol.
Of course it is, as is all of Go Outdoors pricing which changes almost daily.
I have the Kalahari Elite 8. The old ones were blue. Last years one was green. This year it is blue again. Each time the porches etc disappear instantly out of stock by magic to try to make you buy newer stock. Few people are that stupid.
When I bought mine the carpet was £40. 2 weeks later I wanted a second carpet, it was £73, then £80, then £64. When they came to £57 and I had a 10% off voucher I snapped one up. A few weeks later they were £27.99. Then they were back up to £65 again.
At the moment GO claim there is 20% off everything but exclude bundle deals. It's crazy, you can buy the footprint, tent and carpet cheaper separately than in the bundle deal, even though the bundle deal lists the separate prices - at different prices to the actual prices lol!
Same with the tent - this week it is £100 more than it was last week even though it has money off.
They also claim savings against RRP including all of their own brand items. It's sharp practice to place an RRP on something you make for your own outlet because the only actual price is the price you are selling at - it cant be compared to anyone elses item because it is yours!
I buy a fair bit at GO but I certainly check things out as much as I can first. There is no real loyalty from them.
Oh, last week they upgraded my card to a silver one and gave me 15% extra discount off everything. I put a load of stuff in my basket, including another tent, added the discount code and it was rejected.
In big letters it says 15% off ALL PURCHASES. On the bottom of the leaflet in microwriting it lists all the exceptions which are pretty much everything which has any saving on it whatsoever, making the 15% totally useless. In the bin that went lol!
