Obviously, there's a caveat. You can’t just waltz into a Currys and demand a PS5 for the price of a Greggs sausage roll.

The stock will vanish faster than a packet of Hobnobs at a toddler’s birthday party.

Also, you might have to navigate that website. You know the one. It asks you if you want to add a “£9.99 screen protector” for your console or “protect your purchase with a £500 accidental damage plan.” Just click “No, thanks” and run for the checkout like it’s the last lifeboat on the Titanic.

Let’s not fool ourselves—you’re not buying a PS5 for the incredible spreadsheet capabilities. You’re buying it for games like Astro’s Playroom, which is secretly the best game on the system. You’re also buying it for Elden Ring, which will make you rage-quit so hard you’ll accidentally throw your controller through the telly. But hey, at least the telly was on sale.
And here’s a surprising fact: the PS5 loads games faster than my brain can remember what I went into a room for. Seriously, from pressing “Start” to being in the game, it’s about ten seconds. That’s less time than it takes for the kettle to boil. It’s witchcraft.
