Getting back to the OP.

The wife bought some boots today and what did the assistant say, yes you guessed right, "would you like some cleaner for them" of course the wife politely said no thankyou.

I went to buy some jeans, I had a 25% voucher that I didn't know had expired, this was pointed out to me in the minute small print at the bottom of the voucher, ok I said but I don't want the jeans at full price, so she sold me them with 25% off, nice girl.

I asked the girl at Argos why they always ask for your email address. The reply was: " It is in case you lose your till receipt and you bring it back within the warrantee period. We can trace when you bought it then." It makes sense but she still didn't get my email address.

But the warranty is usually with the manufacturer not the shop. You fill in the guarantee card and send that off. So a shop wanting your email on warranty terms sounds a bit bogus.

When I go shopping I only ever buy what I set out to buy, I'd ignore a Bianchi for a tener unless I'd set out specifically to buy a Bianchi.

If you do ever get offered one, buy it and I'll pop round and take it off your hands for a tenner.

I dispute that. When you buy goods from a shop, your contract is with the shop and not the manufacturer so the shop is responsible for it.

Which not all agree with, telling you to get in touch with the manufacturer.

What you'll find is that the "manufacturer's guarantee" is for a longer period than the statutory rights a customer has when buying something
