Argos indoor furniture discount issue

Hello!

Argos have a cool discount offering 50 quid off a 250 quid spend on indoor furniture. I really want a dining table + chairs but it costs 249.99 and refuses to give me the 50 quid discount cos of that 1p!

I tried adding some other items like batteries and stuff, but it won't give me the 50 quid off.

Anyone got any ideas of what to do? I can't find any 'indoor furniture' items that are cheaper than 60 quid... If I phone them up do you think there's much chance of them letting me have the 50 quid off?

    Problem solved, I discovered that adding a stool for 4 quid worked! I hope this helps anyone else trying to get over the threshold on the discount.

    Their site is under ridiculous load, so every click I make takes about 20-30 seconds. It was very frustrating trying all different items until one of them worked.
