Not looking hopeful - have a look at the last paragraph.

The new argos vouchers give you 3 years, so it looks like giving it up as a bad job - can't see it would be worthwhile taking it to the small claims court which is your only other option. You stand to lose far more than that in costs if it goes against you which after such a long time it probably would.

Statute of limitations would apply here I would suggest.

This site is Irish, so does not apply.

If they have no expiry date on them then they should be still valid ?

Hyello!

I've not been in my Argosland this week because I'm on holiday!!

Check the voucher, if it doesn't have an expiry date then it should be accepted. Check carefully, it may be either in the small print on the back of the voucher or even stamped on the front with an inkstamp maybe? If none of those are there you're quids in!! The cashier may want a supervisor/manager to check but in the past we've taken old vouchers with no exp date on.

Don't forget everyone that this almighty free voucher offer finishes on Tuesday!
