    I am actually JUST emailing the head office about this because I had a similar problem, EXCEPT the manager told me I was no better than a common thief and I should be ashamed of myself for trying to take advantage of a company in the recession!!! :eek::mad::mad::mad:
    Cannot tell you how MAD I was, but also how thoroughly ashamed I was too because the store was packed and he made me feel and look an inch tall. I doubt he would have had the courage to speak to a man like that!


    what store was this in?
    Who would say I couldn't make you mine? You were mine since th' beginning of time. Who would say we were far apart? You ever reside in the core of my heart?

    Just picked mine up from Cheshire Oaks. Lovely staff there, very customer friendly. The till wouldn't let me have them for £2.50, it kept adding a further discount of 63p. They tried a few times to correct it before they let me have them for £1.87. :)
    Thanks OP. 2 more prezzies sorted :j

    Hi thanks op for the heads up, jumbaya, that's what's happened to me no matter how many times she tried putting it through the checkout it kept on trying to give me an extra discount, she was lovely though and not nasty at all and even muttered there was no way the computer was gonna tell her it was charging more when she had a printout to say it was a different price, so result a pressie each for my two boys and even better I remembered that I had an argos gift card in my purse that would pay for it so didn't even have to fork any money out today :T:j:rotfl:

    Oh email and try and reserve some more even if not that local, just to prove the point that they are still offering them at that price, its their fault they have known about this long enough to fix it. It's one thing refusing but its not acceptable to be so rude!!

    I have emailed and I have 2 lots reserved at different stores which I reserved after I was refused them and told that the glitch was fixed!!
    :hello:
