    Went in to pick up two orders one for £10.99 one for £9.99, the SA processed the order and it came up almost double. They told me I had to prove that the online price was different from the in store price. I only had £21 with me, My printers not working so I had no way to prove the reserved price, it got all too much for me and I burst into tears, the bears were for my wee grand daughters birthday. At that point the SA ran away and got the manager. They gave me the items at the glitch price.

    Thank you OP for finding the glitch and posting it. No more tears LOL. :D

    Strange :(
    The buy 3 for £19.98 isn't working either. As it is in the catalogue it could be negotiated in store. I wonder what the Quick Pay systems will come out with. I think I need to go and visit the store tomorrow :)

    The dressed duck is only £8.99 http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/9313059/Trail/searchtext%3EDUCK.htm not quite as good a deal but still reasonable.

    The glitch seems to have disappeared, but the offer is still on instore. I tried the Quick Pay screen and added 3 items. It took a further £1.50 off the total price, so not as good as the original glitch but still saving a little bit. The £19.98 deal still works as normal instore.
