Argos RIP thread

TheDriver

The previous chat thread #1 is closed due to some weirdness going on with the code etc so we'll continue it here.

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

Thanks

Do you have to quote this code at the counter or (if you reserve the items) can you enter the code at the credit card display machine?

There is nowhere to enter the code in at the machine.
You must deal with a human

I don't understand how the Argos food50 code works, because there is nowhere to put the code in?

When you go to pay at the till- you quote the code and they apply the discount. Don't use the pay yourself terminal- use the cash register.

Avoid the large polar bear cookie jar- I'm bringing 2 back today (when I get a chance) they were broken in the box). Some ecclectic bargains in there- the Ferrero Rocher at half price- would be a no brainer- only looks like they're well and truly gone. Snow globes also seem to be in constraint. My 6 and 7 year olds have their hearts set on them- guess I'll have a bit of a hike at lunchtime- hopefully the traffic isn't as bad as I suspect it may be.

dyson v6 handheld = 117 euro

is this worth it at this price? - had one a few years ago but the battery died after about 2-3 years so wary of getting another.

Thanks for the tip Daddy Sharpish inspected the two bears in the shop and they were grand. Delighted with the bargain.

Never had one, would never buy one, Dyson = overpriced, battery = POS.

As you have never bought one I suspect you are not qualified to say what they are like. If the battery fails Id be having it replaced free of charge as not being fit for purpose.

Li-ion batteries last, on average, 500 charges. This includes partial charges- where you briefly use a product- and then put it back charging again. Typically- a rechargeable item (phone, vacuum- whatever)- has a typical lifespan of 2 years. This does not mean its unfit for purpose- this is a feature of rechargeable products- if you're not happy with it- you really shouldn't buy it.......

Some good reduction s on drones ,

Can anyone tell me the difference in these two apart from the colour and price that is?

They have the exact same weight on both- which would lead one to suspect they are simply different colours (despite the price differentials).
Note- have a look at the reviews- they are pretty scathing- it may very well be the case that you're better off paying a little extra for something with a better pedigree.

The Muppet

Thanks . I can't see any difference myself.

I Will read the reviews later if I decided to get one .

Mantis Toboggan

Typically little to no stock on either.

dunworth1

RobbingBandit

Still is available to order (the cheaper white one)- the more expensive 'blue' one however, is not available- its letting you order it- but no order no. on the text and e-mail........ Wish Argos would stop doing that.......

What's the difference between both?
10 mins flying time.

Honestly- I think they're just a different colour........ Both have 10 mins flying time- with a 2 hour recharge (though you can buy additional batteries). There is a lack of detail in the descriptions- perhaps they have different specs- but its not obvious that they do. They are both listed with exactly the same weight- to the gram- which would lead one to believe they're the same product?

What I was thinking too. Pity the propellers are open and not protected

A Google search on the The ean number on the more expensive one comes up with this

https://picclick.co.uk/Star-Pro-WiFi-Drone-507A-253277302882.html

Which has 1080 camera and waypoint .

I Have one of each reserved , think I will go and have a look tomorrow to see if there is any difference.

Review seems quite reasonable- however, if its less than $100 in the US- one would have expected it to be better value here- which it obviously isn't.........

If you want an amateur drone- you could do far worse than this- but the 10 minute flying time is a bit of a killer- and sort of negates all the other features........?
