With regards to Amazon UK, the stock is limited. However, they are constantly restocking the PS5 in short intervals. Therefore, fans can stick around on Amazon and keep refreshing the page. If they are lucky enough, they might just manage to steal one for themselves.

Apart from this, John Lewis and Very also have limited stocks that ran out in the morning. However, Very restocked the console shortly afterwards. Even though that stock also ran out, they might be worth checking out.

While Currys advertised their sale for 9AM, they had to push forward the time to 11AM and finally issue an apology saying, “There will be no PS5s available to buy today”. Therefore, whether they will have the console again in the future is doubtful.

The best bet for customers to grab a PS5 for the holidays will be to hover around these websites. They might just get lucky and get on the right site at the right time to find a console for themselves.
