    If you've got receipt, take it back get your money for a refund and then buy it again.
    No reliance should be placed on the above.

    yep thats the way , take the recipt with you buy then take it straight back with the old recipt , no sympathy with the big stores and their cynical sale policies.

    Tefal Quick Cup by any chance? (If it is, they seem to be sold out)

  • Hi, I did this the other day with a ps2 game. bought it last week for £24.99, found it this week in the same shop for £14.97. I had my receipt and just asked the girl for a refund got my money back and then just said can i buy it back now..... £10 is £10 after all!!! Good luck
  • hi
    i bought a bed that was £400, a week later it was reduced by £60
    i just phoned up and asked if i could return it and re buy it again because it had been reduced only a week later by £60, they said instead of doing that they would send me argos vouchers to the value of £60, which they did
    i was happy :-)
