I have just been into the portlethen argos and i reserved 2 sets and i got another 2 sets free.
So i got 12 baskets for £14.98, happy i got the offer .

Hi well i went and got mine on sunday paid for my 3 and queued up, while i was waiting i noticed that the receipt said sorry free item out of stock please keep checking within 2 months (think it was 2 months) ..so when my set arrived i asked the girl and she said just keep an eye out and pop back in and i will have the free set so not bad for £7.49!! that's if they ever get more stock! Anyone else noticed this?0

there is a glitch at homebase. they are the same as argos.

for some reason if you click on add to basket rapidly eg 3 or 4 times in quick succession, it adds them to your basket at £0.00.
i've just ordered 5 sets, just pay £4.95 delivery0 -
I'm sorely tempted Heather but don;t feel I ought to push my luck too much......plus OH might just leave home if I got any more baskets......................lol
Spare room is already full of baskets/boxes/containers of all sorts.........plus the stuff to put in some of them.:jMary

Just put 3 in my basket and came up £4.99 + postage, put the order through but have since received an email saying they only have one in stock so have charged me £1.66 + postage £4.95 total £6.61.
Not sure what to do, still cheaper than buying one set if it goes through but not the bargain i was hoping

If anyone is a coward like me and hasn't got the nerve to try getting them for free (or can't get this to work) , it appears to have the same glitch as argos and three sets seem to be the lucky number. If you add three the total for 3 sets is only £4.99, 6 sets are only £9.98, and if you have loads of hampers to make 9 sets are £14.97.0 -
Did your order get accepted funnyfreckle?
It appears they are now out of stock - see previous two posts above.We love what we are doing and we love why we're doing it!!0 -
Definately out of stock. Doh!
I should get an email when they're back in stock so will try the nifty trick again then.
Thanks anway heather38
