Is your local Argos store open?

Mine isn't and neither are the next closest two. I'm worried they won't reopen at all.

Not yet, but sil has been working in the stockroom all through lockdown.

premiumshoes · 18/08/2020 22:42

Only the one in Sainsbury's, none of the stand alone stores in any of the towns near me have reopened

hastingsmua1 · 18/08/2020 22:44

According to google the stores in my local area have reopened (I haven’t attempted to visit!)

I know for sure the Sainsbury’s concessions are open

Check the store info on the Argos site. Google says all of ours are open, they are not.

Ginfizplease · 18/08/2020 22:49

nope

KurtansCurtains · 18/08/2020 22:49

Ours is (and has been open for a while). They have a very strict queueing system with someone on the door at all times, and a maximum of about 3 customers inside at any given time, even though it's quite a big stand alone shop.

mybonesache · 18/08/2020 22:52

No

hastingsmua1 · 18/08/2020 22:52

I’m in the midlands and yep, all local stores are open according to the Argos website

littlealexhorne · 18/08/2020 23:01

Ours is and never closed I don't think, but its one inside a sainsburys, which I think were treated differently than the standalone stores. Its strange that so many stores seem to still be closed though?

tywysoges · 18/08/2020 23:04

Just the one inside Sainsbury’s, which didn’t really close.

rosesandcashmere · 18/08/2020 23:05

Ours has closed for over a year now. It's only in Sainsbury's which is fine until Christmas

tywysoges · 18/08/2020 23:06

Just had a look and a few of the neighbouring towns’ ones have reopened, but not ours Sad

purpleme12 · 18/08/2020 23:07

There's two in our city one is open and one isn't

DramaAlpaca · 18/08/2020 23:08

I'm in Ireland, there are three in my nearest large town and all are open. I think it might be click & collect only, though.

notso · 18/08/2020 23:10

There's two in my town. The convenient (for me) town centre one hasn't, the edge of town retail park one has.

Megan2018 · 18/08/2020 23:10

No-East Mids

You can order and collect next day from Sainsbury’s and they deliver but store is closed as they can’t apply social distancing for staff.

HeeeeyDuggee · 18/08/2020 23:12

Ours shut down during lockdown. I wonder if it was an isolated site or if they quietly closed a load

pinkcattydude · 18/08/2020 23:13

Ours is closed and will not be opening up. But the Sainsbury’s one is great

MinorArcana · 18/08/2020 23:17

Our nearest Argos is one that’s in a Sainsbury’s, that’s been open for click and collect all along.

No idea about the stand alone Argos near us.

user1493494961 · 18/08/2020 23:21

Our's hasn't, the one in the neighbouring town has.

I think they're using it as a method to shift things round a bit. I imagine many of their orders are C&C anyway, so if they can provide that and save money, then I'm sure they'll take the opportunity.
angelofthelight · 19/08/2020 07:44

Yeah all mine are open

coronafiona · 19/08/2020 07:46

No. And their stock system is all over the place. V annoying!

fussychica · 19/08/2020 08:37

Yes mine and the next 2 nearest are too, including Sainsbury's in store. Wiltshire. Bought something click and collect the other day. Was out of stock first time I tried, tried again a week later and back in stock. Very well organised in the store which was moderately busy.

vanillandhoney · 19/08/2020 08:41

Yes, it's been open for about a month.
