2-in-1 Remote Control 99p @ Home Bargains!


£0.99

81°

FOUND BY: badboy07 7 months, 1 day ago

STARTS: 22/04/2009   

They had stacks of these Control Freaks brand remotes at the Leeds store, 99p reduced from £6.99.

Controls TV and VCR, I bought one and it feels really good quality and works great. Would make a great replacement if you've lost your current remote.

Apologies if this has already been submitted, did a search and couldn't find it anywhere

Yeah, maybe so, but the ones in Pound-Shop's are the worst quality ever. Its like the are made of old melted down crisps packets, tin foil and balloons.

I'll be having a look in HB...they look decent quality.

These are obviously very old stock ( VCRs .. lol )
Many recent TVs won't work with them. Even on ones that do work - you will only have limited buttons that work. Don't expect to be able to get into your menus and adjust brightness etc.
With the digital switchover looming these are pretty pointless.

The pound shop ones are even worse though. They would not even operate my old Toshiba CRT TV properly ( and none of my DVD players or hi-fi or freeview boxes). The codes are years out of date.
