    Well after me saying I wasn't buying any of the add ons yet as my 3 year old prob wouldn't be bothered about them, I saw them in Asda today, £14.95 crossed out on SEL and reduced to £9.97, so I got the car and garage and the wheel. Got to the checkout and first one scanned through at £14.95...told the checkout girl and she trusted me and put the other through for a fiver! sneaky me thought i could take the £14.95 one back and would have got the other for just a fiver :rotfl:

    I have two hamsters and a house, and nothing else - but, if I cannot get the other bits in time, Father Christmas will be leaving my girls a card each promising them extra hamster goodies in the new year if they behave and go to bed when mummy tells them to!

    Boots.com FAQ: When will an item be back in stock?


    We receive regular deliveries and most items are back in stock within two weeks. Unfortunately our Customer Care team cannot give you a specific date for when the item will be available again, so please keep checking back on the site.
    If the item was saved in your basket and is now out of stock it will be automatically removed - you'll see a message to let you know. If any items become out of stock as you are placing your order the item will be removed and you'll be returned to your basket.
    For items marked 'Sold out' we will not be receiving any further stock.

    There seems to be quite a few new people looking for the basics. These are still available, ok so they might be a bit more than the RRP, but after you'd spent hours, days, weeks on this quest, you may as well have just got it in the first place and saved yourself the time and stress. Have a look at my post i did this morning, it has all the stock on I could find today (houses, hamsters, cars and some beds and carriers only) and its all still in stock.

  • I am intriged by this hamster mania how do this kids know they want one are they off a cartoon or something?
    My DD is too small to ask for anything yet but while I'm shopping I'll keep an eye out, what's everyone find hard to get?
    By the way Asda Boldon (North East) had loads and loads of stuff about 6 weeks ago, don't know about now as it's not my regular store.

    Thanks again to everyone who has contributed to this thread, I think the kids will love this lot for Christmas!

  • LATEST NEWS

    Hi to everyone from Hooray for Toys!

    We are now able to provide our latest stock update for this range.

    We are not expecting any further deliveries in November. We have further orders in for December but this has not yet been allocated and we will provide further info if and when we receive confirmation.

    We will be listing the remainder of our current stock on Tueday evening at our normal listing time.

    We have:

    Hamster Deluxe Funhouses - good supply

    Mr Squiggles - Limited Stock (around 40)

    Spiral Slide - Limited Stock (around 20)

    Wheel and Tunnel - Limited Stock (around 20)

    Car and Garage - Limited stock (around 40)

    Beds/Blankets - Limited Stock (around 30)

    Carriers/Blankets - Limited Stock (around 30)

    All existing prices stand.

    We continue to have a reasonable supply of Chunk, Pipsqueak and Num Nums.

    ADD ON ORDERS - We have had a lot of customers recently making two orders in the same day. If we spot it (or they inform us by email) we marry the orders up, dispatch them together and refund one of the postage costs.

    If anyone ever has an existing order which has not yet been dispatched and they wish to place another order - please either contact us before you make the second one (we will advise you how to pass through checkout postage free) or contact us just after you make the second one and we will void the postage payment on your second order. It is in nobody's interest (except our courier) to pay for or send two orders out to the same address on the same day. It is important to let us know - either by email or phone - so we can ensure we process your orders together.

    Any queries at all please contact us
