Deal hunters crash Argos site as last 3 for 2 toy sale of the year kicks off

Members of the UK’s biggest deal hunting community – HotUKDeals – managed to temporarily crash the Argos website earlier this week, as they rushed to take advantage of the retailer’s final 3 for 2 toy sale of the year.

The deal means that parents could get up to 43 per cent off a range of the official top ten Christmas toys. For example, members could get the Air Hogs RC Atmosphere, Hexbug Nano V2 Hurricane and Teksta for £71.31 – saving £53.66 on the RRP.

Such was the popularity of the deal once word spread, that one member reported a temporary site shutdown the day before the sale as HUKD members were reserving items for next day pick up.

HotUKDeals has over 880,000 members and is the UK’s largest deal hunting community.

The Argos 3 for 2 sale runs until Sunday, November 10th.
