Argos gift voucher help

Hi, sorry if this is in the wrong place..

I'll be doing quite a bit of shopping at argos online, I was wondering, if I spend in total £560 at argos, could I split each transaction into £110 - using the £10 free they gave me on the previous transaction?

So first transaction is £101.09, I get £10 voucher, I then spend £110.. would I get another voucher? And follow the same process..

Do they mind splitting orders up online? - So I'd make 5 orders, obviously to get £50 quid off!!

Many thanks

    Would you not be safer to buy five lots of just over £100, and then buy something with your £50 of vouchers?

    If you are ordering online you need to consider the following things:

    Firstly, you will receive a promotion code in an email for a future online purchase, NOT a voucher.

    Secondly if you spend £101 you will have to knock off £5.95 because if you buy online I don't think the delivery charge is covered as part of the promotion. It's covered if you buy for home delivery in store but I don't think it is covered if you buy online.

    Thirdly, remember if you want to split your orders up you will have to pay a delivery charge for each order, ie 5 seperate orders = 5 x £5.95.

    Hope this helps!

    (p.s. remember it is limited to one voucher per transaction, ie spending £500 will get you a £10 voucher not £50!)

    Thanks for the help so far,

    - Band, there is ofcourse that option! - Can you use as many gift codes as you wish on one go?

    I basically need to know, if I use a voucher, am I still entitled to another voucher?

    Ha, I know this doesn't make much sense :(

    You should do. I'm the till supervisor for christmas in store and people who spend more than £100 and who used another free gift card to pay for this purchase do get a free gift card because the till prompts us to do the vouchers.
    For online, to be honest i'm not too sure. You should do, but don't quote me on it for definate! As long as you DON'T include the delivery charge in your price at the end then it should all tot up.

    at the moment you can get free delivery online if you spend more than 50.00 the code is efd10 runs up to the 2nd of dec.
    so if you split your orders up you should get the 10.00 (online) voucher each time hth :D
