V-Smile Joystick and game at Argos - £7.49

I hope that I get this right as it's my first post

well to be honest the the title say's it all but Argos are selling a second Joypad with Toy Story2 game for £7.49 item no - 3481437

The Joysticks are £9.99 in Amazon and the game is £16.49 so it's a saving of £18.99

so even if you don't need a joystick there's still a saving to be had you could even sell the spare joypad on ebay!!:j :T
I hope this helps some one
DEBT FREE 23/FEB/07 TWO YEAR's!! £2 £1020.00 Banked New total £268+ and counting SAVINGS 3000.00- ISA £30. :j

  • Cheeky, cheeky... was looking at the Argos site and they have a "VSmile Software Assortment" (3481499) for 16.99 --- four games... "The Wiggles: It's Wiggle Time", "Thomas & Friends: Engines Working Together", "Dora the Explorer: Fix It Adventure", "Bob the Builder: Bobs Busy Day".

    I thought "WOW WHAT A GREAT PRICE!".... then at the bottom of the page..

    One game supplied. Very sneaky!


    Toy Story 2 game for 7.49 is a great find.

    Just to let you know that my wife just went to pick one of these up but they haven't actually got the games and the joystick. They couldn't work out what was wrong, but guessed it was a error on the website. That number relates to the joystick only.

    She was in there about 30 mins arguing with them to give her money back also had to fight to get that!!!

    THey tried to phone around but couldn't get anywhere with it and simply said it must have been a mistake.

    I went it to order it today and when the manager told me that it was a mistake on the website and that argos don't even sell toy story 2 game. I spent 10 minutes arguring with him and he eventually gave me a £10.00 argos gift voucher to compansate.

    Argos don't sell Toy Story 2 game? Oddly enough it's also advertised here on their website:

    Am going in to argue the case today!
