Argos RIP thread

    The previous chat thread #1 is closed due to some weirdness going on with the code etc so we'll continue it here.


    I know this is 'chat' thread but can we keep it strictly to the items posted in the Argos Bargains thread for everyone's benefit.

    Thanks

    Thorntons classic collection is €2.56 in Argos. May be short-dated best before end of july according to HDUK, I ordered a couple from Stephens green branch.
    Order for collection in my local store. That's usually a very good indicator that you're wasting your time going through the rigmarole

    Picked up a kit in Strabane. Was only £10.99. Nice spot.

    Very good value- however note:

    "•Suitable for use with LPG (liquified petroleum gas)"!!!!

    I.e. there is an electric grill- but the two ovens are gas (at least that's my interpretation).

    Quite remarkable value though (I recently spent over double this on a Samsung).

    Edit: Reading the reviews- not entirely sure what the hell the comment about LPG is- looks like its a standard electrical oven after all..........

    Nearly went for this but the oven is just slightly too wide. Good deal.

    Just why would you want another oven in your home cinema room?

    So this probably won't work as a replacement for a conventional electric oven?

    Ignore the LPG thing, its a standard double electric oven.

    When you check stock levels shows as available, it shows as out of stock when you try to buy it

    Try bosch hbm43b250b


  • Registered Users Posts: 855 ✭✭✭laros


    Went searching for the bosch oven this morning and they are back up to over a thousand euro.... so I assume it was a pricing mistake on this.
