**ARGOS GLITCH** 2 For €40 Toys comes to €20!!!

crushproof

Hi, just spotted this on Argos.ie .

All Toys in the 2 for €40 offer are appearing at 2 for €20 at the checkout!!
The example below, the listed price is €26.99 each but comes to 20 at the checkout!
Only issue is that it is for store collection only so whether or not it is accepted by the store is to be found out!
Good Luck!!!

I've no idea to be honest, but worth a try if you're heading in there anyway.

The 2 that came up for €20 were the remote control spiderman car and the remote control dusty
The 2 that came up for €40 were the dusty remote control plane and the thomas the tank engine tent

The card pay machine should be linked to the store system so although the website glitch is €20 instead of €40 its unlikely to be the same in store. Definitely worth checking though before they cop on a fix it.

But do you not just put the reservation code into the machine and print off your docket?

+1 guess I'll have to use them as Christmas presents !! Thanks op

I take it they will honour it considering you walk in type in your reservation number and then go to collect the items?? Cant see there being a problem?

joe316 hi i'm collecting from nutgrove, where abouts are you

chavezychavez

I managed to get 2 different things, toy story figures and cinderella doll or €20. Just went up there and collected them.

Staff were talking over the receipt to the side so they were aware that something had already happened.

Grand by me though, 2 stocking fillers for Christmas for me sprogs sorted.

It depends on what you order, some matches work some dont. Play around with the items til you get a match for €20:)

I actually have two reservation codes for the same items in stephens green if anyone wants one of the codes? Its the spiderman remote control car and the planes remote control dusty that I reserved

Reckon if you have a reservation number for 20€ that they'll honour it on collection ?

fleet_admiral

Can anyone advise me on what to say if they refuse?

It's only what's called an "invitation to treat", i.e. no contract exists until such thing as consideration i,e, money changes hands so they are not legally obliged to honour the price, might be good customer relations though if they honoured it

Not working for me anyway. Even tried some of the combinations mentioned here

Nope, they do not, but my money is on you getting your goods once the reservation details are with you.

vicwatson

if they say "it was a mistake on the system" and you show them the reference and screenshot of the order, what to say then? Nothing to say really isn't it? Had a similar siutation before with argos and they told me it was an error on their part, said sorry and that was it (mind you I wasnt happy and complained to head office and they sent me a 10euro voucher !!)
