I hate Argos.....reason No. 4657.3 recurring.
What an irritating shop. I go in, choose my item, go to the cash desk to pay for said item. But lo, no one has graced the cash desks - any of the 7 or 8 of them in the place *remained calm*. So, I meander to the jewellry counter, where one harrassed looking woman is directing everyone who approaches to go to the 'auto card payment screens over there, I am only serving jewellry'. I approach, and inform her that 'I have no such cards, may I pay here?'
Harrassed woman - 'What, you havent got a switch card?'
Harrassed customer - 'Noooo'
Harrassed woman - 'Not even a credit card?' with a sneer reserved for scraping nasty squishy things from the bottom of your shoe.
Harassed customer - 'You mean you dont take money?' Irony completely lost on harrassed woman.
Queue formed behind me, mutterings of 'I dont fucking believe this shit fucking shop', as befits the average frustrated Basildonian (usually followed by a head butt; however, harrassed woman was, luckily, too far away). Several irked persons leave, shopping unshopped.
What a silly place :oS
