Getting shops away miles for Argos

Just wondering... I used the shops away portal to reserve an item through Argos for local store collection today. In theory I'm expecting therefore to get my 2 miles per pound spent (it wasn't a cheap purchase!). But wondering if this will actually work and if the systems are sophisticated enough to track back that I actually went and bought the item that was reserved.
Anyone ever tried this successfully?

Don't know about Argos but used it for John Lewis for an I-Mac so not cheap and we collected. It went through but took a while to post think it was 28 days after,(in case you return the item) Lin

Hi RC
Anytime I have reserved an item from Argos and subsequently picked it up days later, I have always been credited the miles. Just be sure to check that they show as pending a couple of days that you have pick your item(s) up.
Hope this helps

Thanks Dan, good to know. What was making me unsure was the fact that you don't pay for anything at the point you reserve it, so effectively it's an in-store transaction.
