    I wanted a Jack Sparrow, so got one off ebay for £3.20. No point going to all that bother for one little set. These free giveaways are so time and petrol consuming.

    I too for the last 2 days have trawled around WH Smith only to be told no stock left!:mad: I have email The Sun who have replied and told me that I can send in the coupon and what stores I visted and they will dispatch my lego toy. Only one coupon per envelope and its first come first serve basis.

    So thank you hopefully I will be able to collect the lego collection for my excited son !!

    Hope this helps anyone else out there who is getting frustrated in the search for lego!!
    wins so far= galaxy bar, child of our time book, with love cd :T

    manic in the eastbourne store. i have never seen queues like it before. it was like a post xmas sales opening. me and my son hatched a plan though. he gets in the queue and i grab 2 papers. yesterday they "sold out" of lego at 11.30am :eek::eek:
    life is like a loo roll. the nearer the end you get, the faster it goes.

    I remember it well, having to buy whichever toy from the happy meal set that our mcdonalds didn't ever seem to have it stock. Even if it was something rubbish he would still want it because it was part of the set. Needless to say I tried to avoid mcdonalds as far as possible :)

    I am still umming and ahhing over whether to buy a dalek off ebay from last week's mirror promotion. Our sainsburys said they sold out really fast, and they were on ebay for £6.99 as soon as I got home :(

    There were a few disappointed people in the queue as they would only give one lego toy even if you were buying two papers.

    While it's great that they are stopping people from buying a dozen for ebay, it's a shame if somebody has 2 children who will both want one :(

    Wherever my mother got them from today (Lichfield I think? She went to drayton manor park) let her buy 4 ... for her 3 grandsons and 1 for her car dashboard ... jack sparrow is so cool :D
