wow, that must have taken you ages to post! Thank you!!

I had written it all down in excel and listed all the kids/ nieces / nephews / neighbours for who was getting what lol. Bagged everything up for christmas. So after that I just shifted it onto here thinking it should do you guys some good when looking. Then noticed it was a bit of jumble so changed prices to red so you can all see them better.

Some of the cars Toon sets are amazing, Son loves this and for £2 and £1.70 where they are like £35+

But do fear what everyone will think at christmas lol, like omg we didnt get enough for blah blah, where each kid in total has had pennies spent on them lol

Wow, a full 2 days of tescoing for me! My local Extra had big bins out marked '90% off toy sale' and staff were emptying roll cages into these. Customers were left to scan for prices, resulting in long queues at the scanner. To my horror the one in clothing dept had been disabled! Of course, stuff was left in piles all around the scanner, sincerely hope this doesn't lead to it being switched off in the future... And now the public's been alerted to scanning, so possibly harder to find bargains soon. This was M.h*ll.

Anyway, found Playdoh puppy set- 1.40, wooden 56 piece train set- 1.00, waybuloos 60p, sand bucket and tool set 40p. Lots of ball pools for around a pound, foam balls 1.00 and other bits and bobs. No cheap electricals except for last 3 breadmakers at £8.17 and Brita filter kettle £5, still some this morning.

In St R*ll*x this morning there was a Nebulus converta scooter £1.50, Thomas airport set 3.00 (all gone) and Galt mobiles scanning at 1.75! Took last one. Monitors strangely still full price and a bed rail in a battered box scanning at 24.95! Also got Professional curling tongs for 1.76 and Hertford folding chairs 2pk 6.00.

That's Christmas sorted. Just wish I can find one of the cheap hard drives! Staff not very forthcoming with pricing bargain laptops, gave up trying after many evasive answers. Hmphh. Still, can't complain about what I did get!

When I got to D*ndee King*w*y earlier there was no trace of the bargains 1mmaker got during the night, so well done on your timing. I asked if there might be reduced toys elsewhere in the store, but sadly no luck, so if you are thinking of a trip there for the toys, don't bother.
Did you happen to ask why they are closing tonight while you were there? No-one seemed to know (R*vers*de and Sth Rd closed too) so may be interesting tomorrow after 6am if you are nearby.

Riv*rside and so*throad are closing tonight to do what kingsw*y done lastnight. Well according to the both managers i spoke to lastnight.

Bearing in mind riverside and southroad had loads of stuff on normal shelves which was scanning cheap. Just had to find them.

Was also told to watch out for some crazy prices on electricals (especially tvs) which was going to start from tonight at midnight but obv store will be closed till 6am and staff will more than likely get first picks on these.

But i recon tonight is the last of everything so should be a bit of a crazy day on monday.

hope this helps.

I asked today about the laptops and just got a smile and a comment that most of the staff had them. I scanned my £4 slow cooker in the mobile phone section and when the SA saw the price he just laughed and said that can't be right? I just said it's a RTC and he said can you show me where you got it from I think I might have one. I took him over and my mum was with me and she wanted one as well. Their were two left and he had one and so did my mum. As he walked away he gave me a smile and said "Thanks for that, we've all got one and we'll keep it between the 3 of us":T:T:TSo I think I have a new friend at T's that will happily scan stuff for me now:T:T:T:T

@MrsBartolozzi

Alot of the stuff on the end of season sale isle was scanning cheaper than what it stated on the shelf. Not as easy there as there are no self scanning machines.

Also all the baby Digital Tomy Baby Monitors were £13 but showing ast £55 also lindam bed rails 60p and everything else that was straight ahead and to the right hand side at end of first isle you walk down. But none of these had prices on them but were very cheap.
