30.7.11 Amazing Argos

Of the 2300+ "Hot Deals" that are available from today until 17th August, I thought I'd share with you the details of one particular offer, which demonstrates an unusual approach to retail.

Catalogue Number: 652/2740 Aluminium Cafe Set
Table and four chairs
Save 1/3  £149.99  £99.99

The text beside the dimensions for the table and chairs noted is, and I quote - "Has previously been on sale for £63.74"

So, we have a catalogue containing super deals where apparently a table and set of chairs was £149.99, but we're now supposed to be overwhelmed to the point of rushing to purchase because of a reduction to £99.99, when in the recent past, the price was in fact just £63.74.  What a complete farce.

Note: the 'Atlantic Four Seater Patio Set' is on a deal as well - Save £10  £79.99  £69.99 (although it "was previously on sale for £59.49" !?!)
