I just did a successful MI thanks to your help

Good to read, and you're most welcome.

Im in the UK and dont want to hit currys or amazon again so soon.

When was the last SE performed on both?

I've seen it on John Lewis and Very but they both use CCTV as far as im aware.

Correct.

The same with Argos.

They are on AO.com but i havent a clue how they operate

Do your research.

If need be, perform a "practice run" (trial SE), by purchasing a very cheap Item worth only a few dollars or so and use the missing Item method. If It succeeds, your concerns have been answered.
