    The bundle with the dvd remote was pulled due to the remote not being compatible, I think what is happening here is they are giving us the free items without making us buy the games as we are getting a Tri format wheel and controller, the exact 2 items you get if you buy a bundle with 4 games for £150 like with the xbox freebies - if that makes any sense ::)

    Whatever the reason, this has got to be THE best offer available for the new PS2. No being tied into silly priced bundles like some of the other shops were doing last week, just a great deal on a new PS2 and iro £40 worth of accessories for £99.99 :D

    I would urge anyone who has purchased a PS2 instore or anyone who buys one instore between now and Christmas Eve to ask for the two free accessories (882/4350 & 882/4367).

    I have had lots of superbly priced goods from Argos in the last 2-3 months, in my mind they have been the trader of the year for bargains ... WELL DONE ARGOS ;D

    Not looked at the accessories yet but are they really worth £40 :o I assumed they would be rubbish and worth £10 each. See what you mean about a bargain - Argos have done some very good deals especially in the run up to christmas and I am extremely impressed with their CS as well, very polite & helpful when compared to index which is a complete dump (well the Leicester one is) ::)

    The lady you spoke to made a mistake as this relates to the OLD style PS2 item number 5672842 (I'm looking in the christmas catalogue now), but if they want to honour this for the new PS2 I dont mind ;D ;D

    Howdie, I suspect they have to honour it as they see the new PS2 as a direct replacement for the old one, which in reality it is anyway. Suspect when they came up with the deal, they didn't think there would be such a buying frenzy due to a lack of demand! I heard several people asking for PS2's when I was in my local store and one woman really kicked off as she had seen they had stock online, had turned up without reserving one and couldn't work out why she couldn't just have one (apparently they had 15 units go before 10am). When I went to the collection area and was passed one, she went balistic!

    The 882 numbers will not appear online as they are Free items that are only supplied with special deals, and only mean't for internal use only.

    The 882 numbers appear on the cashiers till display when the main item is ordered.

    The 882 items can be reserved using Argos Ring and Reserve however.
