I so feel like LUCK is on my side today.

Got a ball and house of TRU this morning, then i have just won a pair of cinema tickets, so,

Im gong to buy a lottery ticket for tonight. 1st one ive bought in years. And hope my luck holds out.

I ordered 11 items from argos and the lady asked me what colour I wanted for something - I was perplexed as I didnt have anything with a colour option. She showed me the hamsters and then realised she had me confused with someone else. When I asked her about it, she said as people were collecting their 'normal' orders the hamster things were being casually mentioned. They sold about £70 worth whilst I was in there. People were scrambling for it.

Just reporting my experiences and suggesting people dont just go by the oos message. My Argos is still showing as oos but I know they had lots of stuff in there an hour ago.

You can be as cynical as you like

hi could somebody please pm the deals on how to do swaps on ebay - got a hamster house after a long queue at toysrus this morning in Batley and now a hamsterhouse has been delivered to my door from online order I thought hadn't gone through. Hope your all getting there with your searching there were loads of hammies at Toysrus this morning but only 1 per customer and we were all given a ticket and then had to queue round to get them. Said they would have more deliveries tomorrow if anyone in the area:T

No guarantees, I am not good at fighting people for things !

Im working on it, i think its much better. Its hard as im sure you know when you have a six year old who still thinks santa is magical and all singing and dancing to explain how he cant get the one thing she wrote on her christmas list. Thats all it says mr giggles and his wheel. Im sure on xmas day she wont be as dissapoinnted as i am thinking i bet other toys will distract her but i feel bad.

When my DS (7) writes his massive list - more of a novel really, we always tell him that santa will appreciate the list but cant possibly get him everything on it as there are so many children in the world and he has to try and be fair to everyone.

So he gets excited waiting to see what santa ''picked'' for him. He's never dissapointed.

As he gets a bit of mney from far away family, so anything santa didnt get him he knows he can go and get it himself, but he never does he prefers to put his cash in his savings account cos he wants to be a millionaire by the time he's 10.

Afternoon all.

Can I please just reiterate how utterly FANTASTIC Hooray For Toys are!!!! In all the hype last friday night for houses, we got charged twice but only had 1 successful order.

After contacting Carol today (left it a week to see if money would reappear!) she has confirmed they did take 2 payments and will refund one straight away. She did offer me a funhouse to be sent out if I wanted too, so something tells me there will be more stock soon!!!

Again, CAROL AT HOORAY FOR TOYS - you are ACE!!!!

I think the stock is on the increase for the hamsters - its the accessories, playsets and add ons that are proving to be more of an issue.
