[QUOTE=3010;54640719]Tower Bridge online at Argos.£153.80
/QUOTE]
It is 152 euros on the italian amazon site, and 7 euros shipping (regardless of amount), ordered late monday night, arrived in perfect condition yesterday morning, so was rather impressed! So if you can afford to wait a couple of days it is well worth it - site is the same, so you can stumble through it without knowing a word of italian! The spanish site also has some good prices too - but not on this item

Does anyone know of any forthcoming Lego sales? Quite a lot seem to be on sale at Argos, Amazon, etc., but I'm looking for a particular set that is not: Dirt Bike Transporter (4433). [I can't link to it because I am a newbie.  ] It's for my nephew's birthday which is nearly a month away, so I'm happy to wait a week or three if it saves some money.
The most I can find off the RRP at the moment is 50p or so! For that little a discount I may as well go to the high street and save waiting for delivery. Thanks for your help.

I know its a long way away but it's always best to think ahead incase (like train tickets) it's best to book xx months in advance to get best prices.  £240 for October 2012 it has GOT to be cheaper somehow for next year (2 adult, 1 x 4yr old, 1 x 2yr old)
Thanks in advance. |
You'd have a better answer on the UK Holidays thread

thanks Mrs MP I tend to only 'live' on the boards where I have had friendly responses - don't stray far from my 'usual' threads and there may have been people on here who may know the answer. Didn't have the time to search MSE for a thread but will do tonight.
sorry for any offence.
