  • remember if you order online go through quidco for cash back
    I can't believe how amazing you are at hunting down bargains already! I have so much to learn from you :D

    At the back of my mind is the knowledge that there's no way I'll know where those baskets are next Christmas, I probably won't even remember buying them! Happy days heh x

    To be honest i always look through argos at sales, although i am trying not to be too organised this year :rolleyes: and when you find a bargian you must share it :) as for remembering where they are set up a documnet on your pc or even write it all in your diary. if you start now you could buy something for each basket on your monthly shop ;)

    Btw argos also have huge wine glasses here for £1.99 :rotfl: and dont forget boots have there 1/2 sale live now ~ also through quidco and discout vouchers can be found here

    Well, I have done it, ordered 6 (sets) and the total incl delivery is £14.98. does that mean I will be getting 18 baskets delivered on Monday :eek: Hubby will think I am mad, better warn him and tell him what a bargain it is...:grin:
    Thanks for the tip!
    Guess it's baskets for birthdays, easter and christmas next year. I bet as the year goes on, I will wish that I had ordered more baskets...
  • Fantastic find. Has anybody been to collect them and found out if they honour the price? I've reserved 3 (haven't room to store anymore particularly if I'm looking for bargains to fill them with!) but don't want a long drive if they come up as more expensive.

    Thanks

    Just ordered 3 sets ......they showed up as costing £4.99 !! Stuck on the delivery of £4.95 and fingers crossed now..............waiting for confirmation e mail. Hope it comes through ok. Can't understand the variation in pricing at all.,

    I'm starting to look round the house for other things that would do as 'containers/baskets...........

  • Web is now telling me they are out of stock for home delivery. It has only let me reserve 3 at my local store, too. Hope it's honoured - thanks for the heads up OP!

    Hi,
    I went to pick them up this morning and they didn't honour the price, so I didn't buy them! it was worth a go though and the girl was very nice but I just told her I'd leave them seeing they jumped from £4.99 to £22. Might work differently in each store though so have a go!
