    Good deal alright. However, never rely on a jack to hold the car up while you're under it. That's what the axle stands are for, and even then I'd use blocks as well to be sure, just in case they fail or they topple. Sorry if you know this already, and I know it's off topic, but with a jack and a creeper in the deal, some people may be tempted to rely on the jack alone.

    Was always told to put the wheel under the car while the car is up on the jack, in case the jack gives way. That way, you'll still have room to get the jack back in underneath again.

Beautiful jewellery too, the girl said once its gone, it won't be back for the new catalogue.

    Got mine yesterday, they had done trouble finding it though. It's in a plain brown box, I think in the jewellery part.

    Lovely set, the jewellery in the box is definitely for kids, but the teddy could be for big kids too :)

    Advice

    In todays examiner there is an argos catalogue however there is an incorrect price attached to a product, the price was so low it caught my eye but when you go onto the website the price is way more expensive.

    I have reserved the product what chance do i have of getting it at the lower price in the shop?

    Very high if you bring the catalog with you and ask to speak to a manager if the server doesnt hand it over straight away, which they will 99/100 times.
