very easily , after buying a flat pack computer desk from there , to say it was crap would be an understatement :mad: :mad: :mad:
i resorted to ripping 6 , yes 6 boxes apart to make a good one from the lot of them , i dont think the manager was over happy , mind you i reckon he was lucky to get away with his life the way i was treat :mad: :mad: :mad:

Argos...LOL.

One of my housemates bought a flat-pack chest of drawers from Argos...they gave him half the parts for one, & half the parts for another.

Another bought a bed from there....they left out some of the screws & other essential items.

Everything I have bought there has been fine :erm:

Also, going to Argos means putting up with all the chavs in there, buying their "posh" jewelry at the Elizabeth Duke counter.

Too right :tu:

Much better than GAME. They also seem to give much better prices for trade-ins too.

I spent a couple of summers working in the main Hamley warehouse when I was a student.


The pay sucked, & the job was soul destroying.


Lots of fun playing around with the toys though.

There was many a fun moment hiding down the back, messing about with Spider-Man webshooters, air guitars, toy guns & so on :D

Pallet-truck racing was good too, lol.

Amazon
Waitrose (nice food)
Asda (bluddy cheap)
TKMaxx (for the chav in me) :D--but the savings are awesome! :shocked:

Re: Top Shops
 
Maplin..cos i work for em and get good discount.
Ebuyer cos they haven't messed me around and they have gr8 prices.
Indeed ASDA. even though i worked for them i still shop their.
Platform and other wholesalers cos i can shop trade and get real prices and proper tools unlike the junk people insist on buying from the likes of B&Q.
