So I got a reservation code for 2 of the Asus Memo Pad tablets for €59.99 each off 'Fergald'. He was kind enough to e-mail
the confirmation onto me so I could print it out and bring it with me. I drove from Wexford down to Clonmel this afternoon.

I went up to the girl at the till, she entered the reservation code into the system. It came up as todays price of €99.99
each for the tablets. So, I pointed out I had reserved them and the price said €119.98 for both of them. She said oh yeah that's no problem. We
should honour them alright. So she went and got her manager who entered the over-riding codes into the till. They then went
out of their way to put them through in such a way that I could get them even cheaper again!

They put through 1 tablet and 1 case first of all, charged me €69.48 for the 2 of them. Then gave me a €10 voucher and then proceeded to use that €10
voucher off the balance of the second tablet & case which cost me €59.48 and then to top it all off as if it couldn't get any better, gave me a €15 voucher
to use on something else the next day

So all in all I got 2 tablets, 2 cases & a €15 Argos voucher for an unreal price of €128.96 :eek: :cool:

Thanks very much once again Fergald, and also soundddd Argos :cool:

It's stories like this that would make you return to Argos in the future. Well done
OP and very well done Argos.

If I buy something using Argos vouchers then return it would I get a voucher or cash?

I presume there's nobody with an Asus Memo Pad reserved at €60 that they don't want? Bought a 10 inch tablet for €180 but couldnt turn down the Asus for €60....

I have a code for the PS4 LBP bundle (349euro) for Childers Road Limk. Reserved until close of business, tomorrow evening. Drop me a pm if interested

Update: 01/12/2014 (5:40pm) this code is now gone.

It's bargains like this that make me love boards! Wouldn't have known about it only for boards and wouldn't have got the reservation code if it wasn't for a boardsie (Fergald)!

I have a code for the Asus memo for Ashbourne store. Email says 59.99, for collection Tuesday 2nd til Thursday 4th. None showing in stock as of now. Anyone want it?

I collected one today in Drogheda. Reservation had said available Wednesday til Thursday but I checked stock levels and collected it early. No problems getting it at the reduced price and I got a €10 voucher too. Very impressive.

The Lenova Yoga 8" 16gb tablet is back in stock end of this week - current price of 139.99 is valid until tomorrow - I've reserved one at this price - from posts here I am hoping that they will honour that price for me!

If anybody has any of the reservation codes for any ps4 deal in Cork it would be greatly appreciated

thanks!

Berty · 01-12-2014 11:43AM

I got the Dyson on Friday for €189 which is now €279. There was only one in Limerick Extra, saw the leaked HUKD list on Thursday so reserved it at full price and collected at reduced. Girl at collection point gave out because she said she wanted it and at 12:01am it was gone.

Tried to argue that it shouldn't be allowed as it was an unfair way of reserving the item. She begrudginly stamped the receipt and off I went with it.

Anyone know that Seagate 2TB HDD that works as a PS4 HDD replacement? was linked in here or another bargain thread recently and I can't find it

Nemeses2050 · 01-12-2014 12:07PM

folks, who got their Memo pad how do you find it. Is it worth? Is it fast enough / is the touch screen responsive? any info appreciated.
I have one reserved for collection.

The Bottom Line For those looking to save a buck, for its low price, the Asus Memo Pad HD 7 has a bevy of useful features, though there are better performing options out there. - CNET Review

It took a lot of arguing with the manager in jervis but eventually I got my asus memo pad 7 for 59.99...its definitely at the managers discretion

01-12-2014 01:29PM

Why is there so many of the laptops on sale not available to purchase ? Is it possible for the store to re order them if you go in ?

Will let you know how I get on in Dundrum later this week. Don't hold your breath. Still annoyed there is doubt about this. As advertised price with a confirmation mail should be enough to get that price.

Siobh73 · 01-12-2014 01:46PM

Re Asus Memo, I just had a quick try last night and found it very responsive. The screen is very clear and I had no problems loading apps for my DD after a slight delay in connecting to Google Play. The camera resolution wasn't great but I was testing it in a somewhat gloomy room so might be better in daylight. It does feel a bit "chunkier" than the Samsung equivalent and the power and volume buttons are awkward to reach but all in all I think it is great value at 59.99 and perfect for my 6yr old from Santa

It's not mine, Bought it as a birthday present for my father. But I researched tablets for quite a while and it ended up being recommended as one of the top for that price, so I went with it!

The girl behind the till looked at my reservation email and just changed the price back from 99.99 to 59.99 on Saturday. Even gave me a 10 euro voucher too.
