Argos shoppers are rushing to buy garden and kids bargains including 3ft trampoline that’s £25 instead of £45
ARGOS shoppers are rushing to buy garden and children items after the retailer launched its latest sale.
Among the items on sale is a 3ft trampoline for children that’s now £25, down from £45.
The trampoline is suitable for children aged three to six years old and can be placed both indoors and outdoors.
Another popular toy on sale at Argos is the PAW Patrol Rescue Wheels Tower – and you can save one third of the price as it now costs £66, down from £100.
The tower stands nearly 1.2-metres tall, with lights and sounds, for an immersive experience and includes one playset, one vehicle and one chase figure.
If you have a Nectar card, you can earn five times the normal amount of points if you buy either the trampoline or the PAW Patrol tower from the retailer.
Argos is also selling a baby walker for half price – now costing £22.50, down from the original price of £45.
The retailer says the product features “textured wheels, easy grip handle and durable design giving all the support your little one needs.”
Among the garden items on sale there is a two-seater folding wooden bench that costs £45 – down from £55.
The bench can be folded away when not in use, which is ideal if you only need it over the summer.
As part of the retailer’s garden clearance, you can also get a three-seater sofa set for just £159, down from £192.
The set also includes cushions and a glass table top you can use for your snacks and drinks.
A shopper shared the trampoline deal on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group, writing: “Argos are doing three-foot trampolines for £25 should be £45.”
A fellow customer was disappointed to have missed the deal, as they shared: “Devastated I’ve just paid 60 for one from Amazon.”
It comes after a shopper found thermal curtains on sale at Argos for just £12.50 – down from £25.
And other shoppers were amazed after the retailer cut the price of its Argos Home Premium 6 Burner Gas BBQ from £290 to £225.
Always remember to shop around when buying something like this as you might find it cheaper elsewhere.
You can use websites like Price Spy and Trolley to compare prices on thousands of products across different retailers.
The Google Product tab is helpful for running a quick scan across the internet too.
Also bear in mind that if you order online, you might need to pay extra for delivery, so you need to add that price to the total cost too.
Retailers closing stores in 2024
RETAILERS have been hit by soaring inflation and a downturn in spending due to the cost of living crisis.
High energy costs and a move to shopping online are also taking their toll.
Some high street shops have closed due to businesses opening up in different locations such as larger retail parks.
Shops may also close due to a number of other reasons, such as rising rents.
We explain which retailers are closing in 2024:
- Argos – The brand announced plans to close 100 standalone UK branches last year as it looks to move away from the high street and focus on expanding its presence in supermarkets.
- B&Q – The chain has over 300 shops across the UK, with two stores closing this year due to leases not being renewed. It has plans to open more in 2024 too.
- Boots – The health and beauty chain announced that it would be closing 300 stores last July. Closures are ongoing and this will see the retailer’s estate reduced from 2,200 to 1,900 shops.
- Clintons – Clintons mulled plans to close 38 shops in a bid to avoid insolvency late last year. We’ve listed the stores affected.
- Costa Coffee – The caffeine giant has around 2,000 sites nationwide, so chances are you’ll have one near you. The chain has shut the doors to dozens of its sites recently. We’ve revealed which stores are due to close this year.
- Iceland – The supermarket has more than 900 stores but closed nearly two dozen sites in 2023, and more selected shops are due to shut.
- Lidl – The supermarket, which has 950 stores, is changing up shop locations, which has meant that some stores have to close. But the retailer is also looking to open 12 new supermarkets.
- M&S – M&S, which runs 405 stores across the country, has been closing a string of branches across the country in a blow for shoppers. It’s not all bad news, though, because the chain also has big plans to open dozens of new shops.
- Trespass – The firm announced in July last year that it was closing six branches, but more are on the way.
- WHSmith – The retail giant, which runs over 1,100 stores, has shut eight stores since March 2023, but more are coming.
How to save money at Argos
There are a lot of ways to save money while shopping at the retail giant.
Checking for other vouchers and coupons can be a great way to discover hot deals.
It is always worth looking up at Argos’ website because there may be a voucher or code that will get you a discount.
Argos has a webpage dedicated to voucher codes which are valid on top of any discounts that might already be applied.
At the moment, the retailer is running at least eight different promo codes across a plethora of electronic goods and home appliances that could get you some discount.
It is also worth checking The Sun’s vouchers to get the best discounts while shopping at the retail store.
Another way to save money at Argos is to shop in the clearance section.
The big yellow part of the website is where the retailer discounts the last few products in ranges that aren’t going to be restocked.
While the products might not be the latest model, they are always brand new – and offered at heavily slashed prices.
As well as discount vouchers and codes, you can also get paid to shop at Argos.
Cashback sites like Quidco will pay you to spend at Argos as long as you click on their link.
Sites like these make their money by charging the retailer a fee for every customer referred to them by their website.
But it means that customers can make some easy money while they shop.
Buying Argos’ own products can also save shoppers some money as they are usually cheaper when compared to big brands.
The retailer stocks its value range of products to help you save even more cash.
The discount store sells its basic range in all departments including homeware, DIY and electricals.
