    Hi All, They have 3 cars available to reserve at Birmingham Argos.
    If anyone knows where I can get a Num Nums or a Ball from I'd be gratefull - I work all day with no internet access so always miss the online stuff. and can only get to the shops at weekends so miss the deliveries !!

    I'm at home all day tomorrow so if the stock comes up tomorrow I will try and get you a num nums
  • Woohoo!:j I can't believe after checking stock availability at my local Argos and them being out of stock for ages, today, one hamster showed up as in stock so I have reserved him/her. I have managed to get house, ball, wheel and chunk from a local independent toy shop plus the slide and Mr Squiggles from Hooray for Toys a week or so ago.

    I will pop into the shop where I bought my original stuff tomorrow and will post if they still have anything left.

    Thanks to everyone who has posted information on here.

    Some Toys R Us (quite a few it seems) are getting stock this weekend, call your local one and find out if they're one of those :)

  • ther is a car and garage on ebay finishing in 9min which is currently 16.50 inc p&p worth checking out if thats what you are after
  • Hi, I'm not sure if anyone is aware of this, but you can ask Argos to notify you by text if an oos item comes back into stock, and you can then reply RESERVE to reserve it. This may help people who don't have continuous access to a PC to keep a check on stock.

    I have copied the info from the Argos website below:

    *****************************************************
    Back in stock message
    How does it work?
    You've tried to reserve a product for store pick-up using Check & Reserve but found it was out of stock? Don't worry, you can find out when it's back in stock by using your mobile phone to receive a text message when the product is back in stock.

    STEP 1 - opt in to a 'back in stock' text message
    Type the catalogue number, enter a space, then type in your nearest town name or the store number where you want to make the reservation e.g. 5003727 Woking (list of stores provided at the back of the Argos catalogue or in our Store locator).
    Send your text message to 61201.
    Unless the item has come back in stock since you last tried to reserve it, you will be advised that the product is out of stock. You will then be offered the option to opt in to a ‘back in stock’ text message. Opt in to the message by texting YES.
    We're sorry but we can't reserve items by text at this time.

    STEP 2 - ‘back in stock' message
    When the item comes back in stock, you will receive a text message (normally sent at around 8.00am on weekdays and 9.00am on weekends).
    If you reply RESERVE, the product will be held for you at the store of your choice for 24 hours.
    If the product does not come back in to stock within 10 days, you will receive a text message advising you of this. At this point, you can opt in again or cancel the request.
    ********************************************************
    Hope this helps someone.:o

    Hi and welcome:hello: Thanks for the info. I have only tried Wilkinsons in Taunton but they had nothing. I work all week and can only get to Taunton or Bridgwater at the weekends but will try again on Saturday.
  • bridgwater is the only local store that stocks them apparently as not all wilkinsons do if i go there again this week i could pick one up for you if they still have them

    Ys Im near Taunton. Was lucky enough to get quite a few bits in Toys R us a few weeks back but have found no stock around this area since. Have you had any luck?

    which toys r us is that? i found a hamster in asda but that is it no other stock anywhere at all
    In the end, we decide if we're remembered for what happened to us or for what we did with it ;)
