Tried that in DID once and they said they considered Argos an online retailer and the offer did not apply to online retailers. Total rubbish of course.

It was their loss in the long run, used to buy all my stuff there. Never shopped in there again, since that we bought a TV, Dishwasher, Washing machine, blue ray player, few laptops and more stuff. Penny wise pound foolish!!!!!

I think it's gone from Jervis now - saying you can order for Monday collection.

I've asked them to send one to St. Stephen's Green for collection on Monday.

Good bargain if I get it thanks given to OP.

I reserved a Gazebo once that was 1/2 price. Girlfriend went in next day to collect but the price had gone up. Manager gave it to her at the reserved price anyway.

Nice man. (Dundrum)

I reserved the last one in Drogheda. Going to pick it up now. Great post OP.

I used to have a similar about 10 years ago, and I stopped using it after a few days because it kept giving me a rash. Im going to try again though and I have internet dry shaving tips to learn from!

They wouldnt get away with that. If you follow this link, you can see they are comparing prices with Argos in their price check promotion.....

I reserved one but the fact I didn't pay for it does that that still mean the price applies?

No. You reserve stock, not the offer. Someone said they had a price honoured. I would say that is just using some discretion. Either way you will see the price before you hand over cash.
