Thanks for that hazelwoods
I have just ordered bunny,fairy outfit and cap/rucksack to collect tomorrow. I have made sure I printed out the order conformation showing the price of £12.99.

How did it go?

I'm going to buy the reduced items to go with the bear. They are good value at the reduced price.

For those who asked, they don't fit Build-a-Bear or BearFactory bears. I have the smaller size bears from these stores, so tried the outfits last night. They are just a bit too small. But the Designabear could wear the BaB outfits or others designed for that size.

The bear is lovely and soft and cuddly

The price of the rucksack and cap has gone up to £5.10, so not as good a deal as before

I had to go back with the print out yesterday, but they then honoured the price for rabbit, 2 outfits and 1x accessory. £15.xx. Thanks OP!

You can still get a deal if you take one of the reduced outfits, but they've now adjusted the amount taken off for the 3 items. Yesterday it was £8.26. Today they've reduced it to the original £7.98

They've not completely closed the loophole yet, but almost.

The Designabear teddies and outfits are now heavily reduced on Argos (most outfits now £3.99 down from £9.99, honey bear £5.49, puppy £6.49).

I missed getting this during the 'glitch' - they increased the price of the rucksack before I had the chance to get to Argos.

Might just have to get some now

I have bought most of the outfits over the last few weeks. But I can't find the Outdoor outfit, or the Casual outfit in stock anywhere in Central Scotland

Today I got a honey bear, along with some outfits. The casual outfit is so cute! The nicest was the fairy outfit. Not really impressed with the rock'n'roll outfit to be honest, looked a bit 'tacky' to me.

This glitch is working again. 2 of the bears and a couple of outfits and accessories have been reduced.

I reserved the lamb, messenger bag accessories and casual outfit. The reservation cost was £12.99. This time I printed out the confirmation.

When I went to collect them tonight I first went to the pay terminal. The price there was £15.99. I remember last time the terminal wasn't taking any extra money off. I then joined the queue for the normal paypoint. Again it came up as £15.99 so I showed the printout. There is an option on the till to honour the reservation price so the assistant adjusted the costs to charge just the £12.99 I was quoted.

They'll probably reduce most of the other items in the next few weeks, or just after the new catalogue comes out. If you are looking for any of these be ready to reserve quickly because some outfits will go quickly.
