    Last year they sent double my order and so had to send them back, customer service were very good.

    Ooh errr I'm getting really nervous now!

    Everything is still in my basket and still in stock at the moment :j
    Going to pop into the Sainsburys down the road just before they close at 10pm to see if there is any new stuff being put out. The tiny toy bit had one Woody, one Buzz, some Halo things and some random stuff when I went this afternoon. Really hoping they clear some space elsewhere for more, I managed to get loads of stocking fillers last year that weren't online.

    And now for more Sainsburys fun I need to do my meal plan and shopping list! Will keep me amused til later anyway!

    I really don't think this is a good idea. Cash wise or for the sake of fairness for others.

    If it sets anyones mind at rest I ordered in this sale last year and got tons of bits in the fortnight after (im at my pc loads and lots of stuff came back into stock occasionally for a couple of minutes and I was lucky to catch bits like that).

    Everything I ordered was delivered within a few days and I dont recall anyone else having any problems??

    I say just order what you need and if it says its in stock and takes your payment you'll probably get it.

    Same here, I did free delivery and got everything I ordered 3 days later.

    There was also lots of stock being replaced in my store for days after the sale started, In fact 2 days before it ended I got some extra bits for my nephews which was being put out on shelves in the afternoon 'just filling the gaps with left overs' said the SA!

    The only bleeping thing I wanted went out of bleeping stock this afternoon and as it's £150 and not a most wanted toy I am very suspicious, makes me think it is online and the bleeping bleepers are putting the stuff oos that they aren't including. I am so bleeped off right now:mad:

    My bleeping theory also!!
  • Hi all,

    Can someone please tell me if the sale is expected to be on all of their online toys? Or just a select few (the items already reduced)?

    I want to get a few things but how will I know if they will be on sale or not? Also do I need to put them in my basket before midnight to avoid them coming up as sold out?

    Sorry to be a pain but I really didn't fancy reading through this whole discussion to find out the answers. Many thanks in advance. :A

    Arrgghhh! This is making me stressed out now!

    I have had 4 items in my basket for about 5 days now and 1 has just gone out of stock! I'm planning on staying up until midnight tonight to get them. Unless they all go out of stock before then of course. I will be annoyed if they don't all get reduced to half price. I am so tired i could really do with an early night!

    I was here for the countdown last year and got some wicked bargains online at midnight then went to a store the next day too and got loads more!

    Exciting ............ but nervewracking too!
