Having shopped at Argos for the past ten years regularly, both via the web and in their shops, I have come to the conclusion that there is little need for me to visit the stores any more, due to the wonderful service I receive by ordering online. Argos stock just about every conceivable item you could want for the home, together with personal items, garden furniture and toys.

But how many times have you been called up, and your item isn't even ready ... more

I have always had something of a disliking for Argos. Whilst I would concede that they are pretty cheap, and that they stock tonnes of stuff, I’ve always thought that they sell things in an extremely complicated way. It was therefore something of a challenge to me to see if their online branch could fare any better than their high street stores.

The store is probably most popular for toys and games and for electrical ... more
