I dont think they actually made a loss, just less.

I myself think its a bad idea for them to expand the fitting and autocentres, especially under the Halfords brand.Should they go down this route I reckon a rebrand may be a better idea for this side of the business.

Perhaps they should concentrate on their core business, I dont know maybe expand further into camping ,as bikes do well.One thing is certain they need to invest in quality staff.

Argos seems to have turned itself around a bit with a slightly altered business model, Argos TV, more online presence,more welcoming stores etc etc.

They should hire you Phil!

The staff at these stores seem to be the main complaint I hear from anyone who uses them. Can't say I noticed, although I never ask them for advice on anything...

Last time I used them was for the CD player in my Renault megane.
