    I'm also gutted as I can't really see anything for my 2.
    Im at a loss as for the first time my son isn't obsessed with anything in particular (it was transformers last year and Ben 10 before that) and currently prefers to do more made up games. Guess I should be pleased lol!

    My 1 year old girl loves her dolly to pieces, was hoping to see some accessories like a little cot, highchair etc but didn't see anything. Can anyone let me know if I've completely missed all that kind of stuff? Thanks!

    I was the same.

    How old is your son???

    I have an 8 year old who isnt really into anything either.
    For the 1st time ever he hasnt asked for anything. But I guess thats because our money lessons must be working and rather than give us a whopping list of tat that will end up in the bin by boxing day, he's taking his time to think about what he really wants, all he keeps saying is, if i save my money can i go paragliding in turkey when we go on holiday next year.:eek: He saw people do it last year but he had to be 8 so wasnt allowed to. Im hoping by the time the holiday gets here he's gone of the idea though.

    Theres lots of little dolss sets all over the place B&M do a couple, in fact B&M do a lot of toys are really cheap prices: for example the magnext coaster is like £80 at sainsburys but i got it for £15 in B&M last christmas.
    :TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T
    :T fortune with those less fortunate :T
    :T than themselves - you know who you are!

    Hi
    What age is your little lad - mine has done the transformers and ben 10 and is now into board games - the lego ones are great as once they are set up they are easy to play and don't drag on for too long and they should be in the sale - bargain HTH - Helen
    PS my DS is nearly 8 and has been playing these games for about a year
    Projects made for craft fair - 40 :)
    1st fair on 13/4/14 :j

    Does the half price toy sale include bikes?

    I got my son a Ben 10 Bike last year on line for £35. I was over the moon as it was obviously £70 full price, but the exact same bike was £95 in toys r us. Also got a little tykes police car for £25 for my youngest last year. All delivered within the week.

    I have pretty much got the boys presents sorted as I have been picking bits and pieces up since the summer. They don't need a "big" present as such this year and my eldest just wants Ben 10 everything!! I will see if I can pick up a few extras when the sale starts and maybe put some stuff aside for birthdays.

    Princesswoo and helenjelly - my son is only 4 but whereas if I'm in charge I'll let him watch Cbeebies or Playhouse Disney his Daddy always puts on all the big boy programmes as he likes them!! Therefore (as daddy is his hero) it's all the big boy programmes that he loves. Dear old Postman Pat was cast aside by time he was 2 *sob*. I'm sure now he's at big school it won't be long before his next phase!

    As for B&M I have never seen one of these shops so there obviously aren't any round this way!
    I've cashed in some of my shop and scan points for £30 of Argos vouchers so if all else fails i'm sure I'll find something there!

    My Tesco had the Ben10 van lab thing today reduced from £25 to under £5
