Stumpy

is Stumpys protection service in this area yet?

I'm working on it ... but I'll only "protect" people shorter than me, so I should imagine that rules most of the adult population out!! ;D ;D

Think the threat of Stumpys protection service scared everyone off! Thread fell to bottom of 2nd page.
Cant think of anything relevent about argos to type (ok its not stopped me before ;D ) apart from looks like the real bargains are drying up, sure they can keep trickling till the next RO sale if there is one

dolphinl

awh thanks!!  :D
i sure have missed being here!
Hopefully things will calm down a bit after christmas just in time for the 22nd Jan would be fine ;D ;D

Wish i did have a stall, would have made a mint,lol but instead have very happy families and friends who have saved money and got nice presents so i too am a happy bunny!  its worth more helping them save money and see the enjoyment on their faces.  
Its been fun too helping out here, its a great wee site with great people, it makes helping out an easy option.

Markr thanks for the pink thingy tip, will avoid them,lol. and a big well done to dolphin1!!! Sure deserves that jaggy top spot!!!  bet your glad, butt must have been sore,lol

Glad that you are now back, I dont think that I deserve to be on top of the tree - it was only one box that was sent!!

MarkR_2

'Clearance Bargains' Warehouse

The 'Clearance Bargains' clearance warehouse opens for business at 10.00am today in Corby, Northamptonshire. Clearance Bargains is a large warehouse style store where, for a limited period we will be trialling clearance of ex-catalogue stock at great prices. The minimum discount is 40 per cent off the original catalogue price, with many items at half price or less.

Note that you will not be able to use your staff discount in Clearance Bargains and the 16 day money back guarantee will not apply. Goods can only be returned if they're faulty, with proof of purchase. Goods can be purchased using cash, cheque, or all major debit and credit cards, but Argos Card, Argos gift vouchers and other methods of payment accepted in Argos stores cannot be accepted.

Please also note that if a purchase is subsequently found to be faulty, it cannot be returned to an Argos store, and can only be exchanged or refunded in the Clearance Bargains outlet in Corby. Clearance Bargains is trading as a separate business venture so this is a necessity.

Why are we opening Clearance Bargains? We have an opportunity to experiment with a very low cost route to market for clearance stock, with minimal investment and little risk. If this helps us to clear running out stock quickly and brings in a good level of return, this could potentially allow us to use our existing store space more efficiently and further improve service levels to customers on current catalogue stock.

Why isn't this outlet branded as Argos? As the day to day range availability, the shopping method and store environment are all very different than that of an Argos store, we have branded the outlet as Clearance Bargains to avoid any customer confusion. The outlet is a discount 'shed', with goods available for self selection from pallets and display shelving. The internal shop fit and branding are designed to reflect the clearance environment, so we also don't want any overt connection to Argos which may damage our brand.

What can we buy and are there any restrictions? The range of goods available will vary from day to day, but we'll endeavour to keep the store stocked with a wide mix of product such as toys, leisure, audio and electrical goods. In fact, the only ranges you'll never see are watches and jewellery.

Where is the store? The address is: Clearance Bargains, Cronin Road, Weldon South Industrial Estate, Corby, Northants, NN18 8AG

What are the opening hours?
Monday - Friday 10.00 am to 8.00 pm
Saturday 9.30 am to 5.30 pm
Sunday 10.00 am to 4.00 pm

They are still out there! I picked up an emerald and diamond ring last night that Argos ordered for me.(that's husbands pressy for my birthday sorted) When I keyed in the codes it told me to purchase at the jewellery counter, well I've heard that before but hopefully went up. "Not in stock" they said. "As usual" I thought"
"But we can order you one" they said!!!!
The saphire adn ruby ones were coming up no such item though.
It is fab!
Happy hunting!
