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. Grin

Beryl is not coming out. I am fearing the worst 😫

MissesBloom · 04/11/2018 13:06

No ravens left anywhere near me Sad I've missed the boat!

I'm now making it my mission to find one no matter what.

Ishouldnotdrink · 04/11/2018 13:07

Has he put it in your car shocks? Y'know the pull down thingy under the dash? If I opened mine and saw that beady eyed creature staring at me,think I'd crash the carShock
Has your OH just taken out a massive insurance policy out on you?WinkGrin

Classics, anyone?

rainbowquack · 04/11/2018 14:06

@LilyMumsnet yes please!

CheshireSplat · 04/11/2018 14:20

Beth is doing a sterling job.... The raven identifies as a raven. 😁

Yonijust · 04/11/2018 14:26

Beth is great. I may have added a few answers myself Wink

MsMightyTitanAndHerTroubadours · 04/11/2018 14:29

somebody brought mine in from the kitchen Angry ...last time I saw the raven it was in the fruit bowl on the table, nesting on the baby squashes.

dh thinks the dog must have found it on the floor after the cat knocked it down, dh thinks that dog can do no wrong.

PaddingtonBearHardStare · 04/11/2018 20:39

It's in classics Russell

Shocksandboooos · 04/11/2018 20:44

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. Grin

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.

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?

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?).

SomersetS · 05/11/2018 09:54

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

ScreamingValenta · 05/11/2018 10:13

There's one available in Accrington.

Clueless1sttimer · 05/11/2018 13:40

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

SoupDragon · 05/11/2018 14:27

There are only a few scattered about the country though.
