What can I buy from Argos for £4ish to win a bet?

I have £4 worth of Argos vouchers that run out on Friday.
Dh tried to throw them in the bin this morning, saying that I wouldn’t be able to get anything worth having with them without adding a lot on.
I need to win this bet as I lost the last one and haven’t lived it down.

I thought I’d cracked it when I found a pair of slippers but you have to pay online for TU clothes and the vouchers can’t be used online.
We have a 2 year old so stocking filers are a possibility. Please hit me with your best suggestions so that I can wipe the smug look off dh’s face.

I missed out on collecting the one I had reserved at my local store.

It seems appropriate that the nearest Argos with ravens in near me is Gravesend.

Heeheehe
I’ve just heard a “squeak” coming from upstairs. I think that he may have spotted it.

Accrington is the closest to me. It’s about 40 miles away. I have printed the pic at work. Will try to get home before dh.

There are only a few scattered about the country though.

Clueless1sttimer · 05/11/2018 13:40

The raven is now 40p!! I vote you buy 10!!!

ScreamingValenta · 05/11/2018 10:13

There's one available in Accrington.

SomersetS · 05/11/2018 09:54

Sold out everywhere near here - nearest one only available in Port Talbot!

MrsFogi · 05/11/2018 09:32

The ravens are only 40p now. I hope someone has told Argos that Beth is a star (there must also be some sort of MN award for her?).

subspace · 05/11/2018 09:23

My nearest ones are 40 miles away. A mile a penny seems a little steep. Why can't I order online and they just release mine with my postcode and he can fly to me?

ohfourfoxache · 05/11/2018 06:51

Looks like you could buy 10 for your original £4 now....

Just sayin’.....you could get them delivered......!

MsMighty it obviously wasn’t the dog. I mean look at that innocent little face.
I love my cat but she is an utter fucker and I wouldn’t put it past them to try to frame the dog.

Ok so I have found her. The twit had put her on the top of the curtain rail in our bedroom with her beady little eyes staring at me in bed. With the darker mornings. I’ve not been opening the curtains. I did this morning and she fell down and landed in my cup of tea!

Plan toilet is go once I can get the picture printed.
