Is anyone planning on going to TRU tomorrow? I phoned my local store today and was told they are having a delivery tonight and will be on the shelves in the morning.

Don't know if this is nationwide or just locally..

Just one question please Maximouse, do you think it is at all possible to get carriers or beds at rrp anymore or should I just go the dreaded other side (ebay) and cough up so I have them and that'll be me done..?

Would appreciate your thoughts please

I think that's the million dollar question and I can only go off what we, as a collective forum, have managed to gleam from various sources. According to the character website when they originally had expected dates, they said 18/12 for carriers / beds and I think with courier service, they might have just have made Xmas. However, with recent events of everyone F5ing, they haven't been able to list anything because the sheer volume of people kept crashing the website. So my understanding from what a few people have said is that they have distributed their stock to retailers (playsets - ball, surfboard, skateboard, may be some hammies and houses but not add ons (car, wheel, slide) unless any came into the country that were originally destined for the retailers anyway). So the best chance to get anything is at places like TJ Hughes, Joh Lewis, Wilkinsons, Argos, Toysrus, Asda, Tesco, sainsburys, local toyshops etc and may be some online retailers but even they will only have miniscule amounts to stock their stores / websites compared to the demand. And it looks like anything that is going out on the shelves is being spread thinly and drip fed. So realistically, you've got to think about how much time you are spending on this quest, if most of the people were just getting the minium wage for each hour spent refreshing websites, we'd have a tidy sum. And trawling around the shops, public transport or petrol / car parking charges etc etc and even if you saw what you wanted online, you'd still have to pay postage and many of the retailers both in store and online have hiked their prices up. So thinking about all this, then some of the ebay prices are actually realistic as it is what you would be paying anyway in your time, petrol, P&P etc etc etc. And above all, think of your health, I was so busy on my quest a few weeks ago that I didn't hardly eat or sleep and I had permanent bags under my eyes and lost 1 1/2 stone!!! So anyway, everyone has got to think about what is important to them and also do your children actually need all the things you are trying to get them. Most will be so over-awed at what santa and relatives bring, that they wouldn't even notice that they didn't have all the hamster bits.
