    I would have thought with Argos's buying power they would have asked for cars only and Character would have obliged, Makro for eg have special sets with a hamster and playset in one box, I don't know anywhere else that sells these in this country.

    The thought did occur to me and I specifically asked the question about whetehr cartons would be split to fulfil an order for cars only from the playsets and I was told no, that they wouldn't do that.

    I haven't been in Makro in years and my cards have long since lapsed; is this really one 'special' box or is it two items shrink-wrapped together? I am really curious about this, but wondering whether someone is making bundles of the items for Makro rather than them coming from the factory like that.
  • Argos in Thetford, Suffolk has stock of hamsters too.

    oh and home delivery of fun houses no longer available to me (but was earlier)

    I love lamp...................and hammies.:cool:
  • have just ordered 2 hammie houses for home delivery from argos. website states OOS but tried with cambridge and sheffield postcodes (in the delivery option) and the order has been accepted. hope this is of use. I know store collection is a non starter, but delivery definitely worth a go.
  • 5+ houses in stock for reserve at Argos Wythenshawe
  • Thank you to Catmather for the reservation code :) As Edinburgh North Bridge said the reservation was only for one hammie, I am still after another! If anyone can help me out, I can collect from Edinburgh, Nottingham or Wolverhampton!

    Thanks again - You will all make two little girlies very happy on christmas day :) xx

    I have a code for 2 hamsters in Birkenhead store if it helps anyone. PM me for the code. I had reserved them for a friend but she doesn't want them now so they are up for grabs. Available to collect up until store closing tomorrow.

    Stores like Makro and costco often have a different offerering on their products and it is part of their uniqueness. So whereas you might be able to buy a car for 19.99 and a hamster for 9.99 - makro might buy them to sell them as a pack for 24.99 (sometimes it is a slightly different packaging sometimes just packed separates together) - they are technically the cheapest place that you can buy that product - that product is not actually available elsewhere in that set up. So when they purchase the product they often intend it to be sold in a particular way.
