    Badgermum. Was that Alder Road? I was looking for moondough there but didn't see any!

    No it was Poole town centre. There was only two left when I brought mine, but hopefully they should restock it as it was at 7.30 and the sales of for a few days.
    Big Thanks to all who post on the comps board

    15 years ago i dont think mse was here so we'd just have our partners to moan at, and no great tips on offers... whereever they maybe. (just taken me half hour to catch up on all todays messages)
    Disappointed in sainsburys, but got what i wanted at amazon, no point in going to tunbridge wells as last year was rubbish.
  • well just back from Kettering store, and very dissapointed!
    got my dd a glitter lead barbie doll and thats it!nothing else there on my list and i don't think it was there when the store opened! the sylvanians were poor, couldn't see any of the sets they had the other day or any price labels for them?!
    there was quite a lot of lego and toy story 3 bits i noticed, and loads of peppa pig and baby annabels.
    Apparently according to one of the staff it was crazy at 8 people had stacked loads in their trollies, not sure what though as like i say i didn't think there was much there and there was no tickets/empty shelves to show that there had been more!!!???
    oh well.... poor mr s has missed out with me as i had £400+ in my online basket last night and got none of it, and then only spent £12 today!!
  • Anyone seen Razor spark scooter or swimming baby born in store?

    i was planning on going to colton one later today but from the sound of it there isn't much point! i was mainly after lego anyway. ;)

    To be fair, they did have quite a lot of stuff and it wasn't madly busy, I would say about 15 - 20 people at most. Might have changed now though?!

    They had different lego sets such as star wars sets, dumper trucks, fire engines etc....

    They didn't have any lego games left though when I got there.

    I'm after Peppa Pig sets, mainly the pull back car and the kitchen set - did you notice if they had those please?

    They had Peppa Pig but couldn't tell you what, sorry. My kids are a bit old for that! Best of luck though!

    Was first in to York store at 7:58, they had loads of stuff, easily 4 times what they normally stock. :beer:

    Managed to get most of what I wanted..

    2 x Deluxe Buzz Lightyears
    2 x Dr Who Sonic Screwdrivers
    Starwars Lego Freeco Speeder
    Lego City repair truck
    Optimus Prime Transformer
    Mr Potato Head
    Elefun
    6 x Lego Mini Figures

    However I did notice that some items were more expensive that on line. like the Lego Freeco Speeder which was 19.99 on-line, but 24.99 in-store (before discount). But still good prices.

    Could have got loads more, but decided not to go silly.

    Went to the Wigan store at 8am. A good few people in there, but I was only really after Star Wars Lego. Got two ships. A Zhu Zhu hamster and Gormitti egg for the stocking.

    If i hadn't already spent up in the Argos 3 for 2, I would have got loads more.

    Very pleased with the Lego and also very disappointed for all of those that were relying on it all being on-line.

    i went to the arnold store in Nottingham, got there at 8.15 after it opened at 8.00, was nothing hardly left on the shelfs, but still spent £77!!! there was loads off lego and boys toys, and still bringing loads out, but not managing to get it on shelfs, customers were opening the boxes themselves with there car keys! it was really busy, not much for my 8 month old girl though.

    The Lego Freeco Speeder was £24.99 on the Sainsburys website. Price change must have happened over night. This is one of the sets I got and DS will be very happy.
