Police in France used pepper spray to disperse a large crowd of shoppers that had gathered outside a new Lidl store that had advertised Playstation 4 consoles for the low price of €95.
The new store in the Parisian suburb of Orgeval was selling the consoles for more than €200 below their regular retail price.
Hundreds of people were pushing and shoving to enter the store when it opened this morning, with local reports that people had camped outside the entrance overnight.
The shop has since withdrawn the special offer.
