Argos £5 free vouchers ..?

Options
RULE..IF YOU SPENT THE £50+ ONLINE YOU CAN ONLY GET THE £5 OFF ONLINE. It is very unfair as unless you spend more than £50 online you have to pay £5.80 delivery! Therefor using the voucher would make me 80p worse off? We all have to think of the carbon footprint made by this rule as Argos has not.:mad:

    argos is giving you the discount online - as you shop online! what more do you want? if you went into high street store you would get a £5 gift card - thats fair isnt it?
    what do you want hun? free delivery too? why should they when millions of customers shop in high street? why should you be treated differently?

    oh - and if you want to bring in the carbon footprint - those huge argos delivery vans versus your average car? dont go there!
  • Minxwolf as Tandraig as so charmingly pointed out Argos actually want you to have a delivery and spoil the environment. Same thing happened to me for the delivery of a large item ie £10 voucher so I waited till there was free delivery and ordered something I needed anyway. -wait and see if Free delivery comes up or there is a code.
  • I ordered 16 packs of laminate flooring a month or so ago and it came by Home Delivery in a transit van so not necessarily a large Argos van.

    Go down to the Argos in the High Street, you can get things there and then and have a conversation with real people face-to-face. It's a much nicer experience, and easier if things don't go to plan.

    Smaller items are delivered that don't need two drivers to carry in are delivered by courier, usually Home Delivery Network.

    You will get a lovely blue lorry when you order larger items.
