Just about to buy a 1T network hard drive for £107 from a big known retailer, most places have it just under £130, the RRP is closer to £150...

Sometimes the "offer" price can actually be more than buying a similar quantity of the same product but in different package sizes at the regular price. -- Cheers Dave.
