Argos is getting a makeover - but can it attract new shoppers?
Do you still shop at Argos? And if so, what do you think of it?
The chain has been a fixture of the British High Street for more than 50 years and is still used by around half of all UK households.
But it has struggled to thrive in recent years amid fierce competition from online giants like Amazon, with sales stagnating.
Its owner Sainsbury's recently announced it was selling the chain for a lot less than it paid for it just 10 years ago.
But the new owners say they see "real opportunities" for growth, including opening new standalone shops. Can they succeed where Sainsbury's did not?
Enrico has fond memories of using Argos's now-discontinued print catalogue
When the BBC spoke to shoppers in central London this week, the retailer seemed to divide opinion.
Some, like Enrico, 28, said they loved the convenience of same-day collection, and felt nostalgic towards a brand which unlocked fond childhood memories.
"It was a great way of doing your Christmas shopping," he told the BBC. "We'd go into our local Argos and we'd get the massive print catalogue."
For others, though, Argos has not moved with the times and is at odds with the seemingly endless online choice.
