    Could you not have slapped a couple of cheapo items on your Bill and tried to run it through the card payment machine?

    Better off telling managers nowt!!!!!!!

  • What was the reduced price for the code.

    If it was a free gift when purchased with another particular item - then you won't get it.

    By trying it only hacks off the Argos staff. Maybe you would have been able to get your Dyson otherwise.

    think you may have learnt your lesson the hard way. Still if you want your Dyson - try RR. Its quite likely that the Manager didn't want to get any bargains.

    Or the Phone even!!!!!
    LOL
  • No I did mean code. On stumpy's list if there is a confirmed RO item - there is a price against the code.

    No use trying the automated tills to get freebies even if you are buying other items - it will just ask to go to a manned till.

    No point in hacking off the Argos staff after all we do need their help to bag some more bargains.

    Reservations usually expire at midnight. It wont be the first time I've stayed up just to phone Argos!  ::)

    I've been finding the reservations ending half an hour or so after the store closes...happened twice when I couldn't make a pick-up and re-reserved.

    For anyone near the peterlee store

    yesterday they had 4 bt dect phone/alarm clocks in at a price of £0.00 code 8824642

    you'll have to buy something else before you try to get it but it might be worth a go.

    i got one from redcar a couple of weeks ago and you can use them with any dect base unit, it worked with my binatone one!

    [glow=red,2,300]RING AND RESERVE 0845[/glow]
    Just a brief note as I'm sure this has already been posted but it may be time to bring it to the attention of newbies.

    The Argos Ring & Return number is a national rate one - 0870 6001010, but you can get the same info by calling at local rate.

    This is dependant on your local store not answering their phone - so busy stores are best to ring.

    Call the store on 0845 1657 406. If the store doesn't answer you will be put through to an automated service, which gives you a number of options. Choose '1' and you'll be put through to the Ring & Reserve service.

    The 406 in the number above is for Swansea Extra store - usually very busy - but you can replace 406 with the 3 digit store code for your local store. Either way, it doesn't matter because you can check any store, no matter what number you ring.
    Life should be a little nuts; otherwise it's just a bunch of Thursdays strung together.

    .... or at least not in that meaning of the word!!!  (watch out for your kneecaps, people!!).  :o

    Taken from Longman Dictionary online

    patient:

    able to wait calmly for a long time or to accept difficulties, people's annoying behaviour etc without becoming angry.

    Maybe I was wrong. People on here don't have annoying behaviour, do they? ;) ;D
    "Heres aliasojo for more information on this product"

    Yeah, and you can't get rid of me by pressing '2'! ;D
