waits for everything to mysteriously go out of stock in the nearest 15 stores until the offer is finished.....

Business slacks, throw an offer on, trade increases :smiley:

Good deal, but what is it with Argos and these on/off offers all the time, they do the same with the £5 & £10 Gift cards.

I bought a toy on the last 342 offer, it was £119 but was price matched to Amazon at £63. I need to return it. Sounds stupid but could I swop it for another toy to a similar value (have my receipt). Bit worried as usually they want you to take everything back.

Heat added :smiley:

Went today argued for 20 mins that price match was with the 2for3 according to fb was told they will accept it this time but will remove this offer!! Also told they dont price match to amazon but did this last time for me.

So my advise would be buy all you can today because ita gonna get changed.

The manager was angry for some reason, as if it was effecting her directly :/

If i order today for 3 for 2, will the the honour tomorrow? Cant get it delivered, as it states in stock till i get to check out.

Bit of a problem with my order today lol
They can't find it res on Thursday
For collection sat/sun
3 pie face
Manager said she'd honour the 3for 2 when the come in stock again God knows when that is lol

Just to make sure.......I have paid for my order by FastTrack but will not pick it up til next week - I will still be given my order even though 3 for 2 will have ended as I have already paid...correct? Thanks!

Hello can we exchange the 3rd item if we don't like plz answer I'm waiting because I ordered 3 items same price but I want to exchange one item and get something else from toys there in store.

[quote=babymamax2]The reason this happens (and I'm guilty of doing it) is that when I hear it's going to be 3for2, I reserve it on the Thurs. And then when I check Friday, it's all gone up in price! So I do not bother to buy it as it is no longer a good deal

Argos normally honour the price you reserved at if you collect within your reservation time. Just give them your reservation number and tell what price you reserved at and they will check and honour that price. It's in their t & c's.

There is no conspiracy when it comes to items being OOS! Lots of stores will have items in stock but reserved, many of which I imagine won't be collected, the sooner Argos require prepayment the better.

Are match attax included In the 3for 2 offer?l:p

I've been adding to basket for a while now and there's lots of "out of stock" .... Getting bored now so not going to bother !!

What a surprise everything oos i want as soon as offer happened and one toy went up £40

just bought 3 BB-8 sphero, heat added :smile:
such a shame fx lightsaber oos

will Ebay store also price match Amazon?

What a terrible site!

AGAIN!!! As bad asDFS. Most times I'm unable to get 3 items in stock. Even if add 6 or 9 the chances of 3 items in stock are minimal. Finished my shopping in September.... Not so many discounts but all in and stress / crowd free

I must have got lucky. Reserved 2 things I was going to buy anyway (one is £5 more then elsewhere), both in stock, and added a third item worth £20 for free. heat added

lol the ebay version is much better... i mean the argos website is utter **** why the **** do i have to add the item 100 times and when i click continue shopping it have to browse back to the page i was on? so ****, pressing back works but it should work better than this, by far the worst website out of all the big companies

You are so RIGHT! I just used the Argos Ebay and got the 3 for 2 and chose toys with free delivery too :smile:

It was much easier to use even though a bit of a trawl to see what I wanted but it was really ok and now have one order to collect and one to simply wait for to be delivered , very good idea dealgerbil to use the Ebay site

In order to get the Amazon Price Match, does it need to be in stock at Argos?

Hi. The Argos pricematch..... I ain't heard of this before. Is this on everything they sell?

GUYS!! please! just get off the website until ive finished my shopping for CHRIST sake, this slowness is KILLING me....

Tried to get some extra cars for anki overdrive but 3 for 2 refused even though the offer states it's for "all toys" and says that radio controlled cars are included in the offer. Must be some law to protect against false advertising?

i went into argos today and what they dont tell you is that they will price match as well , i knew the 3 items i wanted for my son for xmas looked around and found all 3 much cheaper elsewhere, so i went into argos showed them and they agreed to match and got on 3 for 2 ended up paying £150 for 2 £100 lego sets and 1 £130 set

This has worked fine for me, just put in four separate orders so I can get the most out of the one free,

are xbox games included in this?

So Lego Dimensions are excluded from Toys 3 for 2 deal as not toys. Best not play with them then! Argos site seemed to have had a really Black Friday today with the number of apologies they posted for being too busy!

So Amazon have the lego spaceport for £40.99, but Argos are running it up at 69.99.
So by 3 for 2 off Argos and then price match them and you could potentially get 3 lego space ports for £82??

just tried it with 3 hoverboards......no discount :-(

does all toys include ps4? O_0

we had to wait 45 mins in argos for fast track today with no que in the store ... argos = joke

Anyone knows do they exchange toys if I like 2 of them and the third one do they exchange?
Thank you

A good buy - Leapfrog Leapbands are £14.99 so 3 for under £30

Seems to includes BB-8, so if you team up with some other folks......... 30% discount!

Just got two Innotab Max kids tablets, oh and one free for my three kids for xmas. They were also on offer too, £10 cheaper than usual. IN stock in my local Argos for collection as of NOW! Excellent bargain considering the prices ive been seeing lately.

Great! Thank you :-)

What a surprise. Site jacked up again... Getting boring

i noticed that the one i am looking for jumped up in price lego train was £97 ish now £140 ish.
but still ok if you find ok priced toys. just check other store first

Went elsewhere as when I finally got back on to the site my items were out of stock. Only ended up paying around £1 or so more than I would have in Argos.

For a company size of Argos they really should have better infrastructure to deal with the volume of people on their website during these offers & @peak times.

Website down

I really hate Argos

website is down.

R.E.V cars have gone down to £49.99 todaym!
Picked up 3 sets for myself and 2 work colleagues.... £33.33 each..bargain...

Also picked up 3 Miposaurs....and got them to price match to Smyths at £59.99 each...so £40 each.....really pleased...

Went to the Argos store and although they priced the kidizoom smartwatches at £34.99 they gave me yesterdays price of £29.99 and all included in the 3 for 2. Spent £103 for 6 items which would normally have been £150. :innocent:

up now

Treated myself to some Star Wars Lego, great deal.

Computer games no
But what about amiibo characters

I think argos have crashed?

Sites crashed! :disappointed:, but the phone is still working 03456403030,
You'll need the store and catalogue numbers

Crowd control, never saw that on their site before!

Amazon will price match hopefully

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this already but be very careful if buying in multiples of 3!! Online they give you the 3 cheapest free which is not so good if you are ordering 3 x £20 items and 3 x £5 items.....they charge £60...... but you really should only pay £50!!

Currently out stock and currently out of stock for delivery. Argos clearly does not have the stock to back up its offers, pure click bait folks

finally worked on after the 4th attempt! hurrah

theyre site doesnt work after checkout!! rubbish

rubbish

Been waiting for the 3 for 2 to finish and now they've started another one.

INterested in the pirate shooting game for an xmas pressie, was hlaf price at £9.99 jsut before the 3 for 2s started been £19.99 ever since, waiting for 3 for 2s to end to see if it returns to half price again or not.

They've definitely raised their prices for this.
I ordered this green kidizoom smartwatch yesterday for £29.99

http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Search/searchTerm/kiddizoom.htm

Now the site is priced at £34.99 yet click on the quickview and it shows the old price.

Very sneaky.

The 3 for 2 doesn't seem to be working for me either, is it definitely on? I'm pretty sure all 3 items in my basket were classified as toys (no games/electronics/bikes etc).

Just a note my sister in law works at Argos and with all these offers she has just been told to agree to whatever offer the customer asks for!

I put 2 Lego city items that were 3.99 in my basket last night and low and behold they're 4.99 today lol how do they get away with it??

is all the toys on offer ? because I just put 3 toys in the basket on Argos and it hadn't come up with the 3 for 2 . there wasn't any discounts like 2 for 15 or anything

More toys!!

I find most of the toys have had the prices increased before these so called sales! Its a CON, if it is on sale then its supposed to have been that price from day one, if not really a sale or offer...

Cannot see this being mentioned already but be careful when adding multiple items to basket - the 3 for 2 discount applies to the cheapest items of the whole basket and not of the same item. I wanted 3qty of 2 different items priced differently and it took off the 3 cheapest. Buy each of the 3 items in turn and higher discount will come off. Whilst this lower price overall is a standard thing it works for Argos as they want you to spend £50 for free same day delivery and to max the £50 on lower ticket items you will add more things per order when in fact your essentially paying them a delivery fee by not saving as much as you could.

Food for thought!

-- is it also best to wait til next Friday?

waits for everything to mysteriously go out of stock in the nearest 15 stores until the offer is finished.....

Well this on Argos is £69.99

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00SDTYY9I?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_2&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

yet its £49.99 on Amazon. Also the LF Hotel is £79 on Amazon, £99 on Argos. Another lego set is £45.99. Would they price match Amazon and do ALL 3 for Amazon price

Did my order at 3am. Surprised it said the 3 things I wanted were available and have had emails/texts telling me they are ready for collection. I'm not holding my breath however lol. Today's stress is about to begin lol.

Check the prices too as it's not as good a deal as you think. They always increase the prices of the toys by a few quid during these offer weekend. For example the "Star Wars: The Force Awakens Battle Action Millennium Falcon" was £100 quid just before midnight last night. This morning it's £120.

So they make you think that you are getting essentially 1/3 off but yesterday you could buy 3 of those for £270 with the £10 off voucher offer. Today you will get 3 for £240. Still a saving of £30 but it's not the 1/3 off offer it appears to be

They also have a lot of toys at discounted prices. Compared against Amazon and Tesco and they are about the same so with the 3 for 2 you are getting a great deal.

Argos have serious technology issues. Website slow, their in store tablets normally off-line. Products not in stock etc..,

I can't see it advertised on their website??

If I order a lot of items will I get all the cheapest free? Or say if I bought 3 for £20 and 3 for ten would o get one of each free?

Why do they always do these offers in the run up to Christmas?

On Facebook Argos have said they are still price matching while the 3 for 2 is on, so argue it :wink:

can't see offer on site

ordered but took ages to find 3 items in stock :disappointed:

Cannot reserve items to collect, cannot pay for items to collect, cannot order online...........seriously what is the point........monkey company that deserves what is coming. amen

Reserved clangers set last night. Has now gone back to full price. Amazon had it at half so bought it from there instead. Argos and their annoying ways have now lost my custom. Amazon all the way for me! Never let me down yet

I reserved some Lego at reduced price last night, but it's gone up to full price today. Does anyone know if I will pay the price I reserved it at or if I have to pay the price they have today? Thanks

Hmmmmmmm, so, prices going up, items vanishing, others out of stock...........:confused:

would be great, but they always seem to sold out of what I'm looking for. This is for collection or delivery. Very frustrating

As usual not a single thing in stock for collection for a billion miles and oos for home delivery, ill just wait for a 20% code or black friday thanks anyway OP

Ive noticed at least 4 things on our list in this offer that are more expensive than where I can get it elsewhere. Be wary.

If your kids like meccano, grab one of these: Evolution ATV (206pcs)
http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/2456456.htm
@£14.99
£30+ elsewhere on the high st (toysrus debenhams)

Seems to be intermittent - added three toys and no discount applied.

Reserved my 3 for 2s, Phew!

Yes it is online but the item which was £63.99 before the update is now £79.99 lol

One of the items I wanted is showing as £8.99 but adding to basket at full price of £11.99

I think they might be still updating the website , or need to :wink:

I had 4 items in my basket anyway so it made up my mind for me and I placed the order via Fast Track :smiley:

2 items I wanted have now mysterious dissappeared from their website!

Argos website is back up and running and 3 for 2 is active

I think they are updating the website ready for the 3 for 2 , Argos website is often down in the early hours

Don't suppose the 3 for 2 will kick in now it's after midnight? ... It hasn't worked on my order so will have to wait till morning I reckon

suprise suprise.....their servers have problems !!!

Do you have 7 days to collect with Fast Track?

If so I might place an order as I missed out last time and will only be in the area on the Tuesday for pickup

Surprise surprise, the toy I want says order today, collect in 4 days....

Argos not recovered from the last 3 to 2 toys sale ....as most of them are out of stock .....:confused:

I had reserved 2 items earlier on today to pick up tomorrow so after seeing this just reserved them again with an additional toy as another gift for free. Thank you! :smiley:

Shall be returning everything I brought on Tuesday for refund and then purchase with this deal :smiley:

Would nintendo 3ds be in this 3 for 2 offer

Every single Lego set I've looked except 1 is out of stock in the East Yorkshire/North Yorkshire/Hull area. Not impressed :disappointed:

I bloody love Christmas, all that money you've earnt over the year and you can toss it away on trash at Argos and get reward points : ) Hurrah!

I remember when it was Woolworth that done 3 for 2 on toys coming up to Christmas. Changed days!

u will not get ps4 consoles on the 3 for 2, is this definitely happening the 3 for 2?

PS4's are under technology not toys.

Thank you :smiley: I was a bit worried I would have to return the other two items but they have been wrapped up :smiley:. Fab I will return tomorrow :smiley:

Good if your local argos has any toy's in stock ...

fool

Will Anki overdrive accessories be included do we know?

Hmm, daughter is getting a new bike hopefully (would a 20 inch BMX be big enough for a 9 year old?). Maybe add an electric scooter and a third item as a freebee?.

have been waiting for months for stuff to come back in stock!

website down for me............

​Prices were lower before the 3 for 2!

Worth a note the £50/£5 £100/10 voucher ends tonight.

please have a look at their Facebook page before you order.

thousands of people have been charged twice over the last week or so... some then getting bank charges...

lots of people ordering 3 for 2 toys and only getting 2 delivered.

I ordered a £30 Playmobil set and was sent a £11 board game, been on the phone 6 hours trying to get it swapped (online exclusive so can't get it swapped in store)

seems like they have some major issues at the moment

Thanks OP, missed out last time and am after a few things to finish off the Xmas shopping for the kids!

prices look inflated on a lot of board items already. The offer will probably bring the items back down to the going rate in most other shops

Could someone please hurry up and check out all the best deals and report his/her findings ASAP you have my undying gratitude in advance.

again??seems strange after theyve just had one. They only normally do this twice a year. If they do bonus!..

I had a look last time this was on offer, as I wanted 2 of the items and thought a freebie as a 3rd. Ended up buying the 2 from Amazon as it was cheaper and not just buying a random item as the so called freebie.

Thanks

:smile::innocent:

Are computer games included I this offer

A slide and a scooter? Likely to be included?

Yeah plus bikes and trampolines

If you reserve now Argos hold your items for 2 days

Good deal, but what is it with Argos and these on/off offers all the time, they do the same with the £5 & £10 Gift cards.
