    i had a conversation with argos customer services before. I reserved something in the evening and knew that the next day the price was going up. He said that Argos must sell you at the price that you reserved it at, regardless of what it says in store. Providing you pick it up before the reservation ends. It shouldn't be down to individual manager's discretion, apparently it is an argos 'rule'. I went in the next day and they didn't even query it, I had it at the price i reserved it at.
  • i ordered 4 of these from the longton store, to give to childrens xmas charity, went through the till and came up at £11 something, but the nice manager there corrected the price to £5.00,
    big thankyou

    Thanks OP, just ordered 2 - sadly one from each of the 2 stores near me! But a great bargain, and I needed two smallish presents for two six year olds this weekend. Fantastic timing!!

    Reserve online and use the self service checkout in store to stand a chance of this going through...

    The glitch takes off £5 when you add 2 of these skateboards to your basket, making them £1.25 each...:beer:

    Getting 2 is cheaper than buying 1... Get reserving!
    Thanks, just reserved 2.
  • Every time I get to checkout it says out of stock - shame. Good find though!!
