Yeah everyone I know (I'm in Merseyside) we always call it Home and Bargain

I find the Sainsburys have a habit of keeping too much non-food stuff. Kelso seems to have it right, with just a third of an aisle being lightbulbs and small things, but there are others that retain kettles a plenty when there's an Argos right there. I get that it's a different transaction and thus more faff but tbh if you need a kettle you need a kettle.Martin Phillp wrote: ↑Tue 19 Feb, 2019 23.37Argos is finally coming to my local Sainsbury's superstore. After years of rumours of "It's not coming 'ere mate" and "it's too small for an Argos", the former sound and vision section is being stripped out by the shop fitters. Staff in my store confirmed today that it's being refitted for Argos.
The downside is that the formerly excellent magazines section which had more titles than an average WHSmith has been downsized to around 60 titles of popular sludge such as Take a Break and What's On TV and moved rather oddly to the baby aisle!
Everyone thought my local Sainsburys wouldn't get one but it did before Christmas, it's only tiny though one of the smallest Argos store in stores I have seen yet.Martin Phillp wrote: ↑Tue 19 Feb, 2019 23.37Argos is finally coming to my local Sainsbury's superstore.

The smallest Argos I've seen is in a standard Sainsbury's supermarket in Penge, a store I thought they wouldn't be able to squeeze one into. However, the supermarket in Forest Hill isn't getting an Argos, it's an eBay/Argos collection point instead.DJDave wrote: ↑Wed 20 Feb, 2019 19.20Everyone thought my local Sainsburys wouldn't get one but it did before Christmas, it's only tiny though one of the smallest Argos store in stores I have seen yet.Martin Phillp wrote: ↑Tue 19 Feb, 2019 23.37Argos is finally coming to my local Sainsbury's superstore.
