    OMG I cannot wait for this. :j

    I have decided to go into our store later tonight and see what they've put out, or if they have pallets of goodies ready to be put out. If they have what I want I am going to book a taxi for 5.30am tomorrow morning just in case I don't get it online tonight!

    Not long to go now! :j

    When I went last year, I got there for 7am when they opened. There were only 2 other women in the toy section. I had plenty of time to browse and choose what I wanted - definitely no fighting over toys!

    Might be different tomorrow if there is only one buzz lightyear on the shelf :rotfl:

    you go girl :T
  • My local sainsburys opens at 8am, anyone know if its likely to open earlier for the sale? I have phoned but there were playing it cool and just said normal time!

    Thanks
  • thank god i don't have any boys to get for as everything people keep speaking about seems to be lego and toystory stuff which i don't want ... maybe this means I'll get all my bargins and have nothing go out of stock in my basket ... although i've just checked argos in case i can't get some of the bits and they aren't that much more money (once you half price the sainsburys prices they are about the same sort give or take a fiver or so as argos normal prices) so I have reserved a basketful at argos as backup :) either way I'll have christmas presents all bought by the end of tomorrow just hope my overdue baby can hang on til tomorrow night since she three days late anyway ...
  • I hope Sainsburys have been reading this thread and if they are not planning to, will change their mind on making the sale online and on all toys.

    We asked at our sainsburys what time will they open and she quietly said 6am(usually 7am) so hubby will be getting up early tomorrow! Took our son in just now as he wants a big nerf gun and they had loads in yesterday but they've removed them all?!Only little ones left. Also a vtech toy we were going to get for our other son has disappeared too! Wondering if they are saving some to put out at a later date? Oh well, good luck everyone and hope you get some bargains - this is just as bad for me as the next sales lol!
