I'm quite annoyed now. Finally got my dispatch email over a day after the dispatch was showing on the 'track my order' part of the website, and they've cancelled the cars order and I'm only getting the garage.
I now have a tracking number, so I can see the garage was loaded on to a van an hour from where I live first thing yesterday morning. Yet there is no sign of it more than 24 hours later!0 -

oh no! My local Asda has a box of 20 cars for £4 if that would be any good for you for xmas day? I hope it turns up, it's probably because the roads are bad0 -

Thanks, I'll send my hubby down to our Asda for a look.
I've just received the receipt/delivery note through the post, and that says the cars are dispatched, but not due to arrive for 4 weeks. So I guess I'll wait and see what happens as it's not making much sense at the moment!0 -
Just recieved my garage today. No cars! :mad:
Phoned mothercare, a bit vague though. Apparently I should be recieving them when they come back into stock. We'll see.0 -
i got my garage but no cars! they are not even sure when they will be back in stock and then the guy said that the offer where you got frtee cars is not on anymore. they would have to check when i placed the order to see if valid. i am going to return the garage to mothercare.0

Garage arrived today, but NO CARS!! It just says they are out of stock on the delivery note and that we should receive them within 3 days.
Not quite sure I believe that based on the response others have got. And if they don't, then we don't have any cars for Christmas! (and I don't have an Asda near me)0 -
Garage and cars are with me today woot woot.
I put my local Mothercare down as my home address!
Turned up at the store today to collect it, the manager was obviously a little annoyed but the SA thought it was a genius idea.Sealed pot challange no: 3390 -
no cars here either, dispatch note/invoice says 1-4weeks too. Thanks for the asda tip, I'll try and pass through one before Friday.look after the pennies.....0

Very pleased with Mothercare today. Ordered clothes 2 days ago in the sale (expecting after Christmas) & they've just arrived:D (& we've had snow overnight)Smile and be happy, things can usually get worse!0

My garage is here
I was annoyed about the lack of cars originally, but even without them it's a great price on the garage, so it's definitely still a good deal. I know I'll have a happy boy at Christmas0
