    It will charge full price - you have to go to a till and persuade the sa to override the till.

    Back and thought i would report on how i got on.

    Got a manager on the till. How lucky thought i! He agreed to honour the price (after a bit of an argument) he then realised that i was getting both for £3.82 and not £3.82 each. He would only give them to me at £3.82 each, i thought it was still a bargain and got them.

    When i collected them the girl commented on how cheap they were, i told her my wee story and how manager would only give me them for £3,82 each and she said "thats coz he's a tight bastar*"

    Should have went to her!

    Thanks for the tip. What a bargain.
    Got 2 today from Perry Barr Argos.
    Manager very nice and did a price override. Even apologised to me for the confusion!

    Unfortunately they have have now fixed the glitch on line, two are coming up at £10.22
    so you could probably get one half price still if you argue in store. I only managed to get them to half price one of mine and he insisted on phoning head office.
    Oh well still a good price, many thanks a good find!
  • tried to charge me £11.50 for 2 and would only budge to £10.22 for the 2 so i let them keep them!

    does anyone have the screen print out, that they could email me as they have charged me full price and if I go back with a print out they would let me have them at that price.

    thanks
    Nice to save.
