One of the great pleasures in life of a Saturday afternoon is to pop down to the local Argos and watch as the free Theatre of Chaos unfolds before your eyes.
The first Act starts well with everybody more or less receiving what they paid for in the order they paid for it. But by the interval, tempers are fraying and customers are getting angry. By the end of Act 2 and the grand finale, the Saturday boys and girls employed to manage the flow of goods trundling down the conveyor belt demonstrate that clearly they aren't up to the task and the mess that inevitably follows can be a joy to watch.
But now there's even more of a reason to go because it's sale time and there are some bargains to be had. Check it out: Argos sale now on.
One interesting 'bargain' is the half-price treadmill. At £500 it's not exactly being given away but if you're the kind of person fooled into joining a gym then not using your membership this could be a viable alternative.
