Good afternoon, am I the only person who would faint at the thought of spending £50 in a coffee shop, I honestly would not spend that in 10 years:eek:

Cafe rouge is actually a restaurant rather than a coffee shop.

Look out for an email from Argos offering 1000 Nectar points when you buy homeware or furniture. I can't see a minimum spend requirement.

Hope you are ok. Could be so many explanations at least you are being seen quickly.

No idea what it is, not worried just want it sorted, that's one reason i hardly post now as too bloody knackered and fall asleep as awake half the night in pain:o

Look out for an email from Argos with the header - it may be by invite only and so everyone gets a different code.

Bonus 250 Nectar points for you

order something and then collect in store and give the till person your code and 28 days later magically 250 extra points will appear in your nectar account

Looking at the rules and regs I think clearance items are allowed. I suppose someone will find something for 10p
But I was going to order some of clearance grey single sheets for £2.99 a few weeks back and they were still there so I ordered one as its better to have something I actually need.
Its going to grit having to pay with real money - I doubt if you can pay with nectar points and then get bonus nectar points in the same shop.

Last pair I bought from Tesco soaked me through and I sent Tesco a pic of state of my wet pants after wearing the waterproof ones and there reply they couldn't do anything without a receipt :mad:

Or a better range of sizes here

They've got zips up the side of the legs so you don't even have to take your shoes off to get them on. I've used them for 10+ years (through all sort of scottish weather ) and they have never let me down.
