Ah! I didn't know Sainsbury's owned Argos.

As we all know our high streets are failing hard, I always pictured (given big enough tax breaks) old/traditional high street companies (Curry's / House of Fraser etc...) would literally just have shop fronts much like Argos for click and collect with a smallish warehouse (but only order online) - entice punters into towns for click and collect while boosting smaller/local businesses (restaurants/coffee shops / boutiques etc...)

I have a feeling C19 has well and truly punched the nail in the high street coffin.
