As temperatures drop even further in the cold snap, many of us are looking at ways to keep warm without being faced with a huge January heating bill. Now savvy shoppers have spotted a way to bring extra warmth into their homes without cranking up the thermostat, for less than the price of a takeaway coffee by taking advantage of multiple discounts in a technique known as ‘deal-stacking.’
Argos has reduced the price of dozens of well-rated heaters and oil filled radiators as part of their New Year sale, with the Bush 2kW Convector Heater, usually priced at £24 and reduced to £19.20 for the event, one of their biggest sellers. Shoppers praise it for being compact, quick to heat up and perfect for taking the cold edge off a room without needing to turn on the heating for the whole house.
However, bargain hunters keen on maximising their savings even further have spotted a way to get the heater for just over £3 thanks to a money saving website. TopCashback is offering people who sign up as new members for their site a £15 bonus on their first purchase over £15 at one of a host of online retailers, including Argos. This means that new members who shop at Argos for the first time can get the heater for £3.08 after TopCashback’s discount and cashback. If you’ve shopped at Argos previously the bonus is a little less generous, but you’ll still reduce the cost of the heater to £4.04.
Sporting three heat settings, a thermostat control, and a 1.5-metre cord, the free-standing Bush 2kW Convector Heater is not only user-friendly but also secure due to its safety cut out feature and tip-over protection switch. Happy customers have given it an impressive average score of 4.6 out of 5 stars on the Argos website.
One satisfied customer commented: “Good features, very effective heat, clean and stylish design. And the price was very affordable,” reports the Mirror. A second said: “Perfect to give a boost without having to put the heating on.”
Not every customer was satisfied with their purchase however, with one person saying: “The plastic leg stands kept removing from the first day because the screws didn’t fit.”
The deal works site wide so, for shoppers who prefer the style of an oil filled radiator, the Bush 1.5kW version is also available with significant savings. Originally retailing at £40, it’s now available for £32; however, using the TopCashback £15 new member bonus, new Argos customers can score it for £15.13, while existing customers will find it priced at £16.73.
The well-regarded Bush 1.5kW Oil Filled Radiator boasts three settings for heat and thermostatic control, and thanks to its wheels, it’s a cinch to maneuver around the room. Similar to the heater, this radiator also features safety elements such as a cut out mechanism and a tip over switch for added reassurance.
On Argos’ website, the product has an impressive average score of 4.6 out of 5 stars. One shopper said: “Love this little heater – exactly what we wanted. Great for when you just want to heat up one room.” Another remarked, “Warms up quickly even on the low setting. Keeps the conservatory warm without costing too much.”
However a third urged caution, warning: “I cut my hand lifting this out of the box as there are exposed screws at the base.”
To take advantage of these deals on either the Bush 2kW Convector Heater or the Bush 1.5kW Oil Filled Radiator, simply sign up for free as a member of TopCashback and then make your purchase by clicking through from the site to Argos as normal. Argos pays a commission to TopCashback for directing customers their way, which is then fully returned to you as ‘cashback’ and appears on your earnings page. Once Argos releases the commission, TopCashback marks it as ‘payable’, enabling you to withdraw and use it.
