Sorry had to tell someone about my great buy!! I went for the Cookworks one in Argos now reduced to £9.99... I had a £5 Argos voucher at home (been in my handbag for a couple of months!) so used that and got it for £4.99!! I'm so pleased... now I just need recipes! :money:

    I was worried that because they were only £9.99 they would all be gone but when I got there they had 25 available!! :confused:

    You do know that you can reserve on-line so you know that they will have it in stock when you get there.

    I use this so I can go in next day and know that they have one in stock for me.

    And hope you produce some yummy meals in your SC.

    Yeah I actually did this earlier today, I thought I'd check how many there were when I got there just out of curiosity! :j

    I see. Just thought I would mention it just so people did not trek all the way to Argos to find they had none in stock and had wasted time to making a trip.

    Which is about my luck :rotfl:
