Unlikely to be national but some offers might be at other stores (vary rarely these special prices stuck to just one store but also rarely national, usually semi-national). At the back of the Worcester store by the pharmacy / toys / cafe entrance.

    Have an earlier gen Chromecast, and from looking online the only benefit with 3rd gen is additional video codec support (so not worth even £7.50 for me). Am I missing something? (edited)

    Versus ver 2, 3 can stream 60fps at 1080p, 15% speed increase

    Just realised I did get these three barcode numbers for the following items, if you have the scan & go app might be worth checking out, won't mean they will have stock bare in mind.

    Chromecast - 842776106445
    Polaroid Soundbar - 5057172618194
    Breville Bold 2 Slice Toaster - 5060853630507

    Is this national?

    Likely will vary store to store, these deals rarely are totally national, but quite often will be at a handful of stores. Worcester store isn't too big, not a supercentre, so maybe just at some smaller superstores, but just an assumption.

    I can recommend the soundbar as a cheap option, if you have realistic expectations of its 'Atmos' performance. It will vastly improve the sound of a cheaper or smaller TV, and even has two additional HDMI inputs as well as one for eArc

    Thanks for recommending. Can the HDMI inputs on the soundbar be used in the same way as you would use in aTV e.g. plug in chromecast, firestick etc? The HDMI on my TV is located in an awkward position so this would potentially help with access. Thanks.

    The Chromecast (3rd gen) is a reasonable device at that price - provided you're aware of its limitations

    Setup: you need to download the Google Home app to set up the chromecast - but once you've set up the device, you can delete the app (provided you don't change your WiFi/password etc.)

    Casting: 3rd gen chromecasts use a proprietary casting protocol - you need to launch media/content via a compatbile phone app/computer browser and click the 'cast' button for the chromecast to take-over the content - this isn't true 'wireless casting' (unlike Miracast / WiDi etc.) as only apps that support the Google casting protocol will work

    Output: 3rd gen chromecast does 1080p60 via HDMI - it does not support 4K, it does not support BT audio

    Control: either via your phone (the phone should give you playback controls once you've pressed cast) or HDMI-CEC (if your TV/remote supports this) - unfortunately the 3rd gen chromecasts doesn't support BT remotes/keyboards (only the later Chromecast with Google TV versions do)

    Power: runs off any USB 5V supply - the 3rd gen should work with most USB A ports on the back TVs - whereas the 4K / Chromecast with Google TV versions need a deciated USB PD power supply

    Updates: 3rd gen was released in 2018 and discontinued in 2022 - you're unlikely to get new updates - at some point it will probably stop working when Google decides to switch off the servers to make them end-of-life (this caveat applies to all modern/cloud server supported devices) (edited)

    All the Rokus and Chromecasts were cleared out at mine. But the shelf still said full price.
