Play.com have issued a £2 discount code for use on all purchases over £20. This discount code has been released to celebrate a new look to the Play.com site. To take advantage of this discount code, simply enter the code NEWPLAY08 into the promotional code box when you reach the checkout. If you have got at least £20 worth of items in the basket, then £2 will be taken off. Remember Play give free delivery on all items.

So what’s changed? Play have gone for a cleaner layout, with a much better search function. The actual look of the site is I would say similar to that just adopted by Amazon. Plenty of Blues and Orange; the navigation still revolves around the top menu. In fact apart from the look and feel being that of Amazon, the menu’s operate the same too, with useful rollovers to get the submenus and contextual menus on the subpages.

Whether these changes are for the better, we can only assume that as two of the biggest online retailers, they certainly should have. The £2 sweetener that Play are also giving their customers should also help, get them looking at the new designed Play.com

One thing about Play.com, is that they still have their great offers available. From the latest releases, such as Sweeney Todd, save £10, buy for £9.99 to their new pick and mix promotion where there are loads of items from just £2.99. If that doesn’t tickle your fancy - I’m not sure what else might, but maybe the Buy One Get One Free on Disney DVDs may help?
If you’re an Indiana Fan, what about this twist on an old favourite of mine:

Mr Potato Head: Taters Of The Lost Ark

With Play’s huge catalogue, you are bound to find something you like, remember to use your discount code to get £2 off your purchases.  The discount code will run out25th May, so be quick!
