Argos, when we bought it. They seemed to be having a till melt down.

I'd had an email from sony the day before advertising PS4 + Driveclub, Little Big Planet 3, Lego Batman 3 and Minecraft for £349.99. Shortly after reading the email I'd read a news piece on a tech site saying that stocks of PS4's were running low all over the UK, so decided to reserve one for collection at the Argos in my mum's town for the next day as I was going down there to visit her and she was paying for it anyway (Christmas present init). When I reserved it online it was as a bundle, with the correct price - i.e. 1 item in the shopping cart.

The next day we were in tesco before argos and they had Destiny down to £33 and DragonAge Inquisition for £44. decided to double up my clubcard vouchers and use them to get those two games - Paid £7 cash on top of vouchers.

went to argos, gave them reservation number. woman confirmed back PS4 & relevant games... then tried asking for £500 ish (charging for each game individually), big argument ensues with me waving around iPhone with order confirmation email indicating price AND sony email promoting argos....manager comes over.... till button mashing ensues.

next minute she's like £319.99 please sir... and which two games would you like for £1?

I'm like er.... er. er.... Destiny & DragonAge PlzThx....

Card in machine... £319.99!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Took earlier DragonAge & Destiny back to Tesco for a refund

have no idea wtf was going on in Argos, we were there for aaaaaaaaaaaaages. + the amusing thing is, the guy behind me in the queue turned around and said to the woman that he wanted the exact same thing I did, and we both queued at the collection point waiting for our PS4's. I had the last white one, he had the last black one.
Hehe good deal., fucker ;)
