Check this out: here

The website states that these are out of stock but it is still possible to get them. They had been £25 so are an absolute bargain at £2.49. You can't order them over the internet, the only way to get them is to Argos's ring and reserve service (the code is 353/7697)or use the stock checker in store. I bought 4 in Birkenhead store the other day.

What was it then? Anyone?

rainbowtrout · 11/11/2004 11:49

Topper the trick terrier?? can't see it in book.

twoforone · 11/11/2004 11:59

That's strange, it was there before, now it is gone!!
Maybe 20.000 m/netters bought them, and now they are all gone!!

SoupDragon · 11/11/2004 12:04

I suspect it was an error and they've removed it.

agy · 11/11/2004 15:21

I got one! He's cute. Thanks CQ!

redshoes · 11/11/2004 18:10

got my 2 - thanks cq from me too!

cellulitequeen · 12/11/2004 06:20

Hi girls, sorry for not replying sooner but was out all day yesterday. The bargain in question was a "Topper the Trick Terrier" reduced from £24.99 to £2.49. Yes you're right it has been removed from the Argos website. However, you still may be able to get hold of some if you use the ring and reserve service and enter the code: 353/7697 and the code of your store. Let me know how you get on.

Good luck,
CQ

Thanks for the tip, CQ.

Unfortunately, I've tried all the stores in and around Glasgow and they're all out of stock - pity!!

misdee · 12/11/2004 07:56

out of stock round here. can anyone get me 2, as think dd1+2 would like them for xmas. pretty please. will pay for them plus postage!!

cellulitequeen · 12/11/2004 11:24

I know that they've still got them in Birkenhead (where I got mine from). My DH got them for me when he was in the area the other day. I live in North Wales and my local store is also out of stock. There are still some out there to be had!

misdee · 12/11/2004 11:28

is your dh going back over there soon? am desperate.

cellulitequeen · 12/11/2004 13:22

Hi misdee, unfortunately DH was there as a one-off. Perhaps there is a kind mumsnetter in the Birkenhead area who would be prepared to help?

i went and picked mine up today....was going to get extras for thos of you who wanted them but there weren't any left. Sorry.

misdee · 12/11/2004 16:32

well i have found some in peter borough store. will see if friends can pick up for me, or will have to get a train there tomorrow, which would still be cheaper than paying full whack (train is £15quid or there abouts). have reserved 2. yippee!!

cellulitequeen · 13/11/2004 14:48
