Argos Cherry Blossom Glitch?

12467

Comments

  • Just back from Argos, payed at the machine for the Grocery set and got the Post Office set for free :j

    Warning to anyone ordering 2 x Post Offices: Once you get to the till or self serve machine it is only allowing 1 x Post office for free but you can remove the extra one at the machine and still get one free. It might however raise suspicion at the tills.
    :heart: I love my gorgeous little girl :heart:
  • I used self pay yesterday and definitely only paid £24.99 for 1 grocery set and 1 post office set.

    I have just noticed that this range is in the Tesco Direct brochure too (no special offer at the moment) but I may wait till next clubcard vouchers and double up to buy the shop.
  • According to the Argos website,

    'Free postal set with selected Cherry Blossom toys'

    and the

    Grocery set 384/4036 £24.99

    Is one of the selected toys. So this is not a glitch but part of the offer!

    Still a bargain though!

    No it is meant to be purchased with the grocery store £49.99 AND the grocery set £24.99. It says so in their catalogue on page 1581 in the banner box on the Dream Town page

    Online it states: " Get the postal set free when you buy the Cherry Blossom Store and Grocery set together. To receive offer add all 3 items to your trolley. Offer ends 22nd January 2010."

    So is a glitch not part of the offer! :p

  • Apologies.. I stand rightfully corrected. I did not go in and look at the finer details but is a bit misleading if you just look at the selection page when you search on 'Cherry Blossom' alone!

    No they cannot process a transaction on your card without your authority, if this were to happen at a later date then you dispute the transaction with your bank as unauthorised ;)
  • Thanks Mookie and OP, just picked mine up to go away, DD will love it. :T
