    I was speaking to staff in Argos today and they said that the reservation system automatically updates at midnight so I suppose that is the time to search your local store to see if there is stock and to reserve.

    They update usually just after the store closes, so the best thing to do is check the opening times of your local stores and start checking as soon as they close.

    haha well...I have been saying I'm not buying anymore, BUT if i knew the ball was available I would probably get it...and two beds for the 2 hamsters I bought the other day. I haven't got the surfboard thing or the carriers but I'm not really bothered about those. :D

    Well if you are 'on the ball' (excuse the pun) you should be able to get the ball and the surfboard when www.character-online.com list them on 19/11. :D

    I have a reservation for Argos in PLYMOUTH which is valid until the end of Monday 9th November. I was intending to go down today but unfortunately something has come up so not going to be able to make it and I'm at work all day tomorrow. If someone wants the reservation number pm me. It seems that I'm destined not to get one of these things! Arrghh! :wall:

    Ooops forgot to say that its for a hamster and the house!

    Call them and ask them to extend the reservation.
    ACII and Chartered so now I can focus on learning to play my beautiful Sax. 🎷
  • well I managed to get 2 Mr Squiggles in the Cardiff Smythes (lots on the shelves, nothing else though) then went into Cardiff and Boots had the hamsters 3 for 2 so got 2 Mr Squiggles and a chunk, so then took the other 2 back to Smythes, I can hear you all gasp but I am not one to sell them on ebay and wanted to give others a fair go, I just want the bits I need for my girls xx Just need a playball now, typically I am in uni on the 19th when character list them so think I will miss out :o(

    If you are going to be out, can't a friend or a family member get them for you?

    The hamsters and the beds and carriers have gone mad in price on ebay. I think more people are hearing about them now.
    Yesterday DD wanted to watch the video of them again and DS, who 10 minutes before when writing his Santa list had said he wasn't interested in them, came and said they looked really good and he'd like Mr Squiggles and he 'wouldn't mind' if DD shared the play things with him. Luckily DD is very generous like that and undoubtedly will share them with him - wouldn't be the same story the other way round! DS is 7 and obviously doesn't feel it's quite cool to admit to liking them. Little does he know at least 4 other boys in his class are getting them for christmas, and they're just the ones I know about!
