Just a side note the PS4 could potentionally be got for 290/300 euro if you get 7 vouchers for the 10 euro off a 50 and buy the giftcards in Tesco I think it should work. Just have a load of gift vouchers for payment in Argos.

Sorry to go off topic but do tesco have a sale on gift cards again? Any chance it includes iTunes? Checked the tesco forum but couldn't find it

Off topic but as far as I know you can't use the 10 euro off Lidl vouchers to buy vouchers in Tesco.

I have a code for the PS4 bundle for Portlaoise if anybody wants it, has to be collected by this evening.

TallGlass · 21-05-2015 08:11PM

Anyone know when the stock checker updates? I missed out on my code want to see if I can grab it again.

You have to ring CS and they will put you through to Ilac, there is no direct line for Ilac iirc.

So I drove all the way out to Drogheda Extra to collect the PS4 w/GTA5 it I forgot to check online did they have the Witcher 3 to go with the deal, so I asked in store online to be told no they don't. So just decided to check there and they have 2 in stock. I am actully fuming here.

Should I ring tomorrow and ask for the manager to see if anything can be done? I'm just annoyed because I drove all the way out there and asked nicely if they had it in stock. The women never even checked, but I work in retail so took her word on it. :mad:

Most likely they were reserved by people but didn't pick them up before close of business. Just reserve one and go back tomorrow?

I picked up an xbox one bundle in tallaght before xmas minecraft was included in it but they had none in stock at the time.
But they had them in stock in kilkenny were im living so the staff member reserved one for me and took the money for everything and wrote it on the receipt that i was to get minecraft free in the kilkenny store.
Popped into the shop and got the game no problems might work for you if they had it in stock in another store that you can travel to?

Cheers. Some hope in this then, no stock in Dublin but I have reserved one up there if they say yes I can have it, I think its worth another trek up.

On a side note that toll is a pain in the arse, you know things are bad when your struggling to find 1.90€ when your buying a bargain at 360€ hahaha.

Suppose us bargain hunters take every cent into consideration. That's how I can afford it in the first place. Hunting down a 70€ game, chase is better than the catch as they say !

branners69 · 23-05-2015 09:16AM

I reserved a Ps4, Witcher 3 and Bloodborne for €349.99 in the Ilac yesterday!

I was constantly pressing F5 on checkargos for Witcher 3, one became available at midday yesterday so could reserve all three! I picked up the Ps4 and Witcher 3 yesterday evening, have to collect Bloodborne on Monday!

TallGlass · 23-05-2015 11:09AM

Can collect Withcher 3 in any Argos store once available, just bring the receipt.

Lau2976 · 27-05-2015 12:22PM

Do certain pages on Argos random;ly break for anyone else? It's like every so often when i go to their website a certain category will just be broke. Like their camping section right now.

Don't be on the site much but I've noticed it myself from time to time. You can still search to find the sections or use the A-Z.

Bargain on rattan effect garden furniture. It's the Havana 6 seater patio set complete with parasol normally €706.99 down to €364. For some reason the product code is not working on their website and if you search for "Havana" it still wont come up. However, I checked the in-store checker and it's definitely on their system. Product code is 304/3978. I purchased one earlier, just waiting for delivery, which is next week. The same patio set can be seen in homebase and I think it's reduced to around the €550 mark.
