I ordered a bike today over 100 pounds and received an email with 2 vouchers for a tenner each. I didn't realise it would be in 2 different months (Oct & Dec) so can't use them together to get 20 quid off.
Especially as the first one is for this month with 3 days left of it.

It appears that I can only use these online, is this correct? If so i am rather disappointed as delivery is 5.95 so much left of the tenner

The 1st £10 or £5 voucher or online code is valid from now until 30th November.

The second one is valid from 1st to 24th December.

Promotional codes can only be used online.

Taken from the terms and conditions on the Argos website. (There are a lot of them!)

OK, it may not be what you had hoped for but if you were buying the bike anyway is this not an added bonus? 2 x FREE 10 pound vouchers/codes is better than none at all and this is how the free gift card promo normally works..afterall they want you to keep coming back so offering them over 2 dates makes more sense, as much as we like to save money they need to make money.

How do you know which items have free delivery?

I added a lego base plate to my order by it still didn't qualify for free delivery

Not at all, I was going to use Sports Direct with free delivery and 10% discount, but this swayed me to use Argos.

The staggering of dates I understand the reasoning, but given the first one is "Valid from 27/10/2011 until 30/10/2011" when item was purchased on the 28th, not much time to make a purchase I do not need otherwise I would have ordered with the bike!

Why do they not make it so you can use in-store too?

check your voucher coz the dates should be 27/10/11 - 30/11/11 giving you 1 month to use it

hm armed forces are currently 25% off on most of the catalouge items though online only dont seem to be for some reason
