    I got some bargains last year, - charged on my card as the 29th October - online so I suspect mid to late october again this year.

    I too have matchsticks and caffine drip at the ready ;)

    Definately 29 October, I posted on the 1/3 off post that it was the end of October but have checked my history and it was 29th.
  • I know the sale was the 29th October last year, I did get some bargains at 8am in the morning, but does anyone know what time it goes live on the website???
    Thanks
  • It went live at midnight on the Wednesday last year because I remember staying up for it. I hope its online again this year. There was a lot of uncertainty last year about whether it was online or not so I suspect if it is online this year it will be even busier. Some people were told by Sainsbury's it was instore only and some were told it was online.

    I didnt know you could collect from the store. I think I will do that this year.

    I remember falling asleep just before midnight and waking up at 5am gutted thinking everything was gone. Managed to get LOADS, sylvanian families grand hotel, Smart Trike, lots of vtech and fisher price toys etc..
    Then went in store at about 2pm and got quite a bit more.
    Really hope its on this year :)
    Gotta love a bargain :j
  • I currently have the dilemma whether to wait for the Sainsbury's half price sale or to get what I'm after today from Argos at 3 for 2. I can't make my mind up. Any opinions?

    I'm waiting for the Sainsbury's. I don't feel i'm getting a bargain unless it's half price or less :o It may backfire but i'll take the risk!!

    OK, I'm with you, I think I'll wait. The kids will probably change their minds about what they want between now and the end of October anyway! At least we can console each other if it backfires! :)
