To be honest, I've never known either shop to do discount codes or vouchers. Argos sometimes do the promotion where you spend £50 and get a £5 voucher back or £100 and get a £10 voucher back. Homebase just do the 10% day promotion as far as I know and the last one was over the Bank Holiday weekend just gone. You could always contact them to find out when the next promotion is. I recently bought a couple of sofas from Homebase and this wasn't on 10% off day but I asked for 10% off if I bought that day and they said yes so it's worth being cheeky and asking.

If you have an Argos Storecard (yes I know the interest rate is shocking!) then you quite often get offers sent through the post. You can now use it in Homebase, and we've just been sent a voucher fro 15% off if we pay with the storecard, we also get the same interest free period that we would in Argos. I'm making up a list of stuff that I need at the moment - I think I may be in for a busy Summer! As long as it's paid of during the interest free period then we get the full 15% off. Incidentally it does say that it can only be used instore, and not on 10% off days.

We also occasionally get £4 off a spend of £40 or £5 off £50 vouchers for Argos. If you think you can use it wisely, then it may be benificial to get one for the future.

Not much help for you now, I appreciate, but thought I'd share!

There's a 15% off voucher for homebase valid this weekend if you know someone who works for BT, but it's a paper voucher so no codes i'm afraid.

I used one last time to buy 2 sofas delivered for £300! Bargain.

I don't know but my dad got them and sent them to me last time, and he rang me to see if i needed more because they were repeating the offer this weekend...they possibly came out of the union magazine, i'm afraid i won't be seeing him to ask before the weekend

I googled and the only things I could find were ebay listings! Cheeky sobs!

The 15 % off is also for people who work at BAE Systems this weekend. I wanted to buy a summer house from Home base for £999 as I could get it for just under £850.
I noticed, however, that if you ordered it on-line it states that the product may be delivered from Argos.
Having then visited the Argos site I found that it was only £849 without being in the sale!
My question is therefore, how can Sainsburys justify charging a whooping £150 more?
I have printed off both website's product pages and will challenge Sainsburys to meet the Argos price and then brandish my 15 % discount at the tills (knocxing it down to a respectable £722).
If Sainsburys won't play ball I will ask Argos to accept the Sainsburys voucher (worth a try) .

I thought Argos & homebase were the same company? I didnt realise sainsburys were part of it.

I always compare Argos and homebase when buying something they would both stock. I would print off Argos page and go to homebase and see if they will price match.

good luck!
