Sainsburys half price toys!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BeenieCat

Sounds like loads of people have had a budget in mind for Xmas and instead of saving the 50% are buying their kids twice as much instead lol.

Think i'm a little guilty of that too (well not quite twice as much though!)

I phoned Sainsburys about 15 minutes ago as I hadn't received a 'your sainsbury's order has been despatched' email. The chap I spoke to checked my order and said my order is OK and will arrive tomorrow.

As if by magic I have now received my email.

The only thing is I realised when I was on the phone that when I typed my post code in for the order and did the automatic address search my village isn't showing up just the town. I mentioned this to the chap and he said there shouldn't be a problem as they use GPS trackers. The only thing is for some strange reasons they send people a couple of villages away.

Oh well fingers crossed it will arrive safely otherwise I will have to get on the phone again.

When i was in my local(bolton) this morning the shelves where full and they had a row of trolleys full of more toys. the girls sorting them said their store was full to the brim with toys so i suspect it maybe worth your wile to have a look. They just keep replenishing the stock onto shelves.

gghh

i went to my local store earlier and got a few bits, not much on the shelves for my boys, mostly for young children (I'd say 2 and under!) but I did manage to get the Peppa Pig classroom set and two Power Rangers motorbikes which I'm really pleased about!
They were re-stocking the shelves while I was there too so I'd say it's still worth popping in if you can, they said it's on for the next 7 days

Wish I could afford to spend hundreds of pounds on toys!

I have a budget of £50 for each of my daughters this Christmas. Hope I can get some half price lego in the morning and it hasn't all been bought up by people with hundreds to spend...bitter, me? Nah.

£50 is just perfect for a child, on principal I don't spend hundreds as they don't appreciate the more they get! I buy half price so i suppose i get £100 worth for £50 which is MORE than enough.

Just imagine the clutter in their houses with £300 odd worth of toys going about. Eh no thanks...... :rotfl:

thanks to everyone is this thread . i went to my local Washington Sainsburys this morning queued from 7.15 dashed in at 8am and wiped them out of Star Wars and Transformers gear spent £375 me and the wife had two trollies , i am really surprised everything was half price WELL DONE Sainsbury's :T

My niece has just rang and she gave up in the Washington store, she said it was carnage with women grabbing things out of other peoples trolleys! The poor store assistants just stood back looking frightened!

She went to the Team Valley store instead and said the shelves were stacked with hardly anyone there so she managed to get everything she needed.

Thank you so much for everyone who contributed to this thread as I would never have known about this sale otherwise (no nearby Sainsburys). I decided to try my luck and wait until midnight to check the website, really wasn't hopeful but was so pleased when it happened.

I have spent the day quietly worrying though as my order has been stuck in "processing" but finally I received the magic dispatched email about 6pm so I guess they are still working through them.

Thanks again everyone!!
