My interest in Argos supermarkets grew out of a family vacation we had years ago. I was excited to see what Argos was up to, so when they announced their grand opening we all came to celebrate. We were all in for the ride of a lifetime. We went through the grand doors and immediately had to go into Management training, it was fun just to be there. Our guide told us that our first stop was at the Argos store in London. 

It was located on an upper floor on Horse Guards Road in Knightsbridge. As we walked into the store, it felt like a movie theater. The store was filled with row upon row of shops filled with Argos products. Some of them we knew, like the potato chips and such, but there was a massive amount of other stuff. A great majority of the stores were completely new, but there were some old, slightly used Argos stock dotted around in the corner. When we walked back out of the store, my husband remarked to me that the place was like a movie theater. The shelves were packed to the brim with food. My first thought was that this must be one of the busiest Argos stores in London - I couldn't imagine how that could be. So we continued to walk, eventually finding our way to Argos opening times. We walked towards the front of the store, which was also manned by a huge employee who looked like he was in his twenties. His accent was definitely English, although I couldn't make head or tail of what he said. My attention was caught by an Argos employee in the store selling us a tour. I was really impressed by what he was talking about, so I asked him where we could go and he pointed right down the road to our local branch.

We asked where we could get the tour, and he just laughed. He told us that it wasn't actually a tour - it was just a thing to give us an idea of how the store looked like - and so he asked us to take a look around. It wasn't hard to see that the store was like any other Argos store. My eyes were immediately drawn to the fruit section, because I had expected to see lots of exotic fruits in there. So when I saw two boxes from aisle three, I didn't even bother to look into what they were. I soon found myself buying two bags of bananas. But that's not all - the thing took my breath away. The way the fruit was displayed was so impressive that I nearly choked on my own fruit! So the next time I was in there, I looked again. Instead of Argos bananas, I found Indian bananas. And then there was a mango. And then plum. There were plenty more - each different color, each with their own distinct taste.

This experience has definitely made me want to try and find an Argos supermarket near me in London one day. I think I'll head over there at some point in the future to try and check out the fruit section. Just like the guy said, it wasn't a tour, but an actual thing to take. I think it's quite an exciting place to buy produce from, all the same - and I'm sure I'll be back. I did end up finding the Argos store at Holywood Exchange in Sainsburys . It is a bit more fancy though, as the Sainsbury's branch is only a few steps away. Either way, the quality is pretty good and the prices are quite good value for money too. There are a couple of other fruit and vegetable shops in the area, but none of them compared to Argos.

If I could, I'd like to go there just once more. Once I have my groceries home, I would also like to get a bottle of wine there and take a bite out of some pizza. I've only eaten in the restaurant now and I really haven't got any plans until later in the week. Maybe I'll just pop along there for lunch one day to try and sample it. If I were to come by myself, then I might go into Highcross Court. It's not too far from London E1 - but this place can be very confusing, as the road names don't make any sense. I'm still not sure what all the restaurants are named for. All I know is that if I were to buy a packet of cigarettes at the Argos supermarket on my way back from work - I'd like to think I could understand the order properly.
