    Mine won't be in stock until Wednesday, I have a feeling all managers will be alerted to the mistake by then

    Did anyone notice if the code on the two trays matches the code for the ten items?

    Seems to be at the individual managers discretion, but wouldn't hurt to call up some of the pictures of receipts on here on your phone to help back up your case.

    According to the Argos stock checker there is only 1 left in drogheda and 2 in Wexford. All the other stores in the country are sold out.

    That would suggest you were fully aware of it and trying to take advantage so would pretty much ensure any discretion went against you.

    They are still advertising it as a ten piece set at 2.49, a handful of people on here have had it honored (myself included) so why shouldn't anyone else who has reserved the item get the same deal?

    If they question you, you can say you thought it was a bargain, not a mistake

    You wouldn't have a collection of other people's receipts then.

    got to say, that I have a problem with this. Its an obvious error on their part. Why keep pushing and still asking for the discount?

    This isnt a bargain alert now, its just plain robbery.

    yes, but you would be lying. You know it, I know it and they will know it.

    Its poor form.

    Its advertised on the website for 2.49 for a 10 piece set, as far as im concerned thats advertising a price, people expecting to pay 2.49 for whats advertised isn't robbery its business and if they cant check an ad before it goes live its there loss and our gain.

    Good joke ! We are asking whats advertised. They dont even have common sense to report it and get it removed from the website !

    It's really not.
    Reserved it again to collect by Friday. It's either not a mistake or the left hand doesn't know what the right is doing, many opportunities to pull it by now, it's still live.

    This is my thinking, if it was really mistake and meant to be a 2 piece set, why is the 2 piece set listed at a different price and why haven't the fixed it yet?

    As long as the listing is live, I'm going to assume it's not a mistake.

    Argos in Stephens green didn't honor it today :-(
    Girl working there was very nice and apologetic so I didn't even try to push for it :-)
