  • Just been to Cheltenham.I got a baby annabel,lots of zingzillas stuff and a waybuloo toy so I'm happy with that
  • Just got off the phone to sainsbury's, they told me the lego city garage is an online only item (has anyone seen one in store??) & that it wouldn't be going half price.
    Surely it would have made more sense for the online only items to be the 1/2 price items.
    really wanted this, didn't see it in my store :(
  • I was after the Ben 10 laser but no luck - they just seemed to have the small £4.00 characters and some of the new watches.

    b&m have these £14.99

    Rang Cust relations the kitchen is not a store sold item so no way of getting it 1/2 price :(:cry::(:cry::(:cry:

    Not sure where you live, but Sainsburys Heaton Park had quite a few in near the door.
  • really wanted this, didn't see it in my store :(

    Cheapest i've found is £49.99 at smyths:

    Would have loved to have got it for £30.

    Hessle/Hull main store didn't have a great deal, Only 1.5 isles, but more "big" stuff than last year. Plenty of Toy Story Lego. Some SF, Barbie, Zuzu, Lego (inc toy story) Polly Pocket, Liv, Transformers, Animagic, Furreal, Nerf, Large Fisher Price things too, Peppa Pig bits... Large Disney stuff toys. Arts/Crafty things, paperrooz (is it?) moon dough,
    Everything instore is HALF marked price - unlike online.

    The staff are restocking over night - I heard several commenting on the fact. It seems that the aim is to keep as much available for as long as possible.

    It's worth a trip to see what your store has, - if mine is anything to go by - - it opened at 8 - was mad for 30 minutes then was comparitively empty.
    was there any buzz, woody, mr potato heads, toy story toys. Other than the lego.

    what items have you bought - a quick look on amazon for them, should give you an idea of whether you have got a bargain or not. if not, then return them

    Wow thanks for the great idea! Looks to be good apart from the double charge!
