i just got email from mcdonalds about the new happy meal toys - hello kitty for the girls and sonic x for boys. the boys toys are just disc shooters but the girls ones look sweet - a bag, a purse, a notebook and pencil set and a diary :-)

little miss divadee loves heelo kitty, also remember you can buy just the toy for £1

I had a look too and was going to buy the four items without the meals, I hate their food so I usually buy the gifts for a pound each if they have something I would like to collect. I love hello kitty (did the aviator give that away???) so they will be for me!!!!

The diary is really good for a mc donalds toy ( daughter got one yesterday). It looks like it would sell for over a quid in the shops. You get a sheet of hello kitty stickers too.

OH had an extra value meal yesterday and tried to buy a Hello Kitty diary for me as a surprise but they would not let him buy one on its own!!! :eek: I have never heard of this before and have bought many toys without the meals as I don't eat their food. Has anyone else had this problem? OH might be getting a Hello Kitty happy meal in the week then :cool:

you may have got a new-ish assistant who just didn't know you can buy toys on their own, mcd's buy them in at 42p, of course they'll sell you one at 99p :-)

if not, a meal might be worth the extra pound if you want the fruit or carrot bag, and a bottle of tropicana or water.

Yesterday passed by McD and they had big notices up showing the Hello Kitty toys and free childrens Narnia cinema ticket with every Happy Meal. Decided to buy DD1 & DD2 a meal each as they love Hello Kitty and we haven't yet been to see the film. Got given a Narnia toy and no cinema ticket - told they haven't yet had their stock in yet. Why oh why put up the advertising if they haven't started stocking them yet?? 2 very disappointed children!

You can swap the toy when the Hello Kitty ones come in if you want & I would complain about the Narnia ticket as I know my local McDonalds has had them in for a while although I personally haven't been in but I know others who have.

does Mcds not do a different toy every week anymore then, so you have to go every week to build up the collection?

its just that everyone seems to be getting different Hello Kitty toys - my local Mcds only has the hello kitty bags at the mo, so presumed that next week they would have one of the other toys, is this not the case???
