Good news and bad news - press release from http://www.jsainsburys.co.uk/index.asp?PageID=424&Year=2010&NewsID=1396!

October 27, 2010

From tomorrow (Thursday 28 October) Sainsbury's will be running a week long promotion offering 50 percent off all toys in store, representing potential total savings of £18m.
Unlike offers from other retailers Sainsbury's half price deal applies to every toy in store, giving parents the perfect opportunity to stock up on Christmas gifts, with less than two months until the big day.
The biggest saving is on a Thomas the Tank Engine Train Set which normally retails for £139.99 and will be £69.99 from Thursday. Other big savings include:
Top Toy Savings Original PriceSale PriceWooden Dolls House & Furniture set £99.99 £49.99 Micro Scaletrix £79.99£39.99Baby Born with Walking Horse£79.99£39.99Landrover 1:10 RC£74.99£37.49Disney Princess Royal Kitchen£59.99£29.99
With the success of Toy Story 3, the Jet Pack Buzz Lightyear is tipped to top kids' wish lists. These are Sainsbury's predicted ten best sellers for Christmas 2010:
Top Ten Top SavingsOriginal PriceSale PriceToy Story 3 Jet Pack Buzz Lightyear£39.99£19.99Kung Zhu Hamsters£9.99£4.99Barbie Fashion Fairytale Transforming Doll £24.99£12.49Talking Zingzillas£16.99£8.49Zhu Zhu Pets Rock Star Hamsters£9.99£4.99N-Strike Deploy CS-6£19.99£9.99Bakugan 7 in 1 Drago£39.99£19.99Monopoly Revolution£29.99£14.99Club Penguin Puffle Soft Toy£5.99£2.99Bendaroos Creativity Centre£19.99£9.99

Luke Jensen, Sainsbury's non-food managing director, said:"Whether you have children, grandchildren, nieces or nephews, this is a fantastic opportunity to make big savings. It's a great time to stock up and spread the cost of Christmas at what can be an expensive time of year. The only thing you'll need to worry about is keeping them hidden."

Notes to editors
The offer runs until midnight Wednesday 3rd November. This is an in store promotion, only a very small number of toys will be offered at half price online.

Hopefully whatever toys we have online in our baskets are the ones included!

Hi Guys,

Can I join you, lol! I have stuff in my basket but I am not logged in for checkout. Should I log in or do that once I refresh my basket at midnight? I only have 6 items in my basket and all still ok at the moment.

Thanks for any advice, this hour is going to go so slowly, I'm tired already, lol!

log in now get your basket ready and at the stroke of 12 checkout and pray that it all goes half price ... if you don't log in you'll have to faff about putting addresses and payment details in ... every second counts i'd imagine ... good luck

nightwisher666

I only want one thing in particular and three im getting just for the sake of half price....if they are half price! Not very MSE i know

I wasnt gonna buy anything in the sainsburys sale, but my mum has given me a list, so here I am staying up for sainsburys and then trying to satay awake for the travelodge sale at 6am, and I have college in the morning too.

It better be worth it.

ok why are people trying to get 28 or 99 of anything ... experimenting ? or just being a pain in the @*$% so others of us who are genuinely trying to save money (rather than make it) can't get what our kids have asked for cos someone has bought 99 of something ... :mad:

:eek: Ermmmm........actually I added one to my basket and on doing so you could see on screen that there were 28 left. Just trying to be helpful so take a deep breathe lol!!!!!!!! :rotfl:
