Index Closing down sale? Ooooooh a Massive 10% Off ?

[jongla]

We don't have an Index in Halifax, but we have 2 argos stores, the nearest Index to us, is in Huddersfield, I don't think Bradford even has one.

Anyway don't shop at either of them much but when I do its always argos online or in store.

I always found Argos in Halifax to have some of the best customer service (used to live in Halifax). By contrast, Argos here in Ipswich seems to be constantly under-staffed when its busy, and over-staffed when its quiet (?!?) However, Index here in Ipswich seems to be like every other Index store - rubbish on floors and under-staffed.

I agree about the Ipswich Index cybertrax! Generally go there as it's more convenient, but compare the stores: Argos: bright spacious, chairs for waiting, and a good computer/tv screen system which tells you when your order is at the collection point. Index: old fashioned, messy and few staff.

I don't know if that's a joke or not, but for anyone who doesn't know, Argos evolved from the "Green Shield Stamp shop"

No wonder it reminds sludge of them....

No way! LOL!!!

I loved the green shield stamps. I remember my mum getting some every time she shopped in Liptons...

Try going to the Argos in Wandsworth - not enough staff, shabby/torn shelf displays (clearance stock), mess, litter, no pens, and the catalogues/special offer sheets/order slips all over the floor. Oh, and 2 chairs for the queue to share.

prefer Argos..when our Index closed the first time we shopped at Argos and have done since..the only good thing for our Index is that its near the bus stop
