Argos Chat Thread #1

Mr.Crinklewood

Seems most weeks we have a bargain or two from Argos, thought it might be an idea to have a dedicated forum like the one for Tesco:-

Sound Asleep Pillow - was € 39.99 - now € 11.99

Morphy Richards Fastbake Breadmaker - was €159.99 - now €79.99.

PAC-MAN Remote Controlled Man and Ghost Racers - was € 39.19 - now €19.59

Mod Edit:

If anyone is looking for an item and is looking to check for stock nationwide. Use http://checkargos.com/.

Mod note please read post 352 - here

I know this is 'chat' thread but can we keep it strictly to the items posted in the Argos thread for everyone's benefit.

Thanks

This ASUS from amazon is better value @ £220, the processor has twice the power of the AMD one in the Acer, although dont expect great performance either.

The processor has a max TDP of 6 watts meaning it is very efficent and will extend battery life , its about half the TDP of most i3 processors.

Edit: theres no access bay to upgrade the ram and hard drive easily in this model:

Youd have to unscrew the whole back case, keyboard and top of the bottom case id imagine.

So i "reserved a fire tablet" in the local argos. No stock showing up today and available eary next week. No reservation number in the email or item description from argos.
Am I out of the loop or am I still good with the reservation ye think?

Have one of the Acer Aspire ES laptop for €219 reserved though it might be ideal for Leaving cert student and for first few years of college. Would really only be used for writing reports and presentaions watching dvd's or something like streaming tv and skype I suppose.
as she is not into gaming etc
At that price i was hoping it would be worth it.
Now the doubts are starting to develop

It's mostly likely a placeholder for the new Touchbar MacBook Pro. They've only started arrived for using in Europe the past day or so. Argos most likely haven't even got stock yet.

That certainly has never stopped them offering items for sale

It's in BA. Not active until Thursday night at 12. No one is sure of stock, so don't bank on it.

Just looking at that AMD Acer Aspire ES laptop going on sale on Friday.

The cpu has an extremely poor benchmark compared to the deals in the UK near the same price.

It only scores half the amount of the likes of the Intel N3700 which are in the same class.

https://www.cpubenchmark.net/cpu.php?cpu=AMD+E1-7010+APU&id=2820

I think ill be gunning for the Dell on sale on Friday.

Got one to fill an emergency during the summer- it regularly shuttered to a halt- performance was appalling. After the emergency was over (a few weeks later)- I donated it to Camara.

James Delaney

Is the Dell on sale in Argos or Dell.
Please send Link.
Cheers.

A bit off topic

Looks like someone didn't get the memo

Just wondering, does Argos often do 25% off furniture or is it only once a year?

Hi - hopefully some1 can assist re SandDisks as I know nothing about them except they're used for storage on phones.

I am required to leave my Samsung Galaxy S5 phone in for repair (its a 16gb phone) & have been advised to store my ph content on a SDisk.

Amazon are offering the follow:-
1) SD ULTRA Android 64gb mocro sfxc ckass 10 memory & sd adapter £14.99

2) 128 version of No. 1 above @ £24.99

3) SD EXTREME 64GB Micro SDXC CLASS 10

Can some1 please advise what they consider is the best option for me.

Thank You.

First you'll need to check what is the maximum size micro SD card that you phone can use.
There is no point in buying a 64GB if you phone can only handle 32GB.

Gods damn pink Hatchimals is up to order since last night the dreaded out of stock San reservation number message since 2am from every store I've tried in and out of Dublin.

Not a hope in hell of getting one. Smyths in Naas said it would be after Christmas. Amazon have them but have added a premium to the prices and if you try to buy, they are not available.

Just saw this on HUKD

Chromecast reduced to £20 on Argos.co.uk

http://www.argos.co.uk/product/4475662?tag=ar:chromecast:buynowbottom

Wonder will we get a similar drop here. Must be due to the new 4k chromcast thats just out.
