The store in Dudley is well stocked on Olympic stuff too
I got a Beefeater figurine (99p), 2 union flag key rings (39p each), an 8 colour pen (49p) and 3 rubber ducks (tennis, swimming and boxing at 99p each)
Coupons = the only money we can legally print for ourselves:D
:j A coupon for a free item that is price glitched in Mr T's to be cheaper than Sada for an apg = HEAVEN :j
:money: total = £47.48 cc = 413 selling stuff = £23.00 Floor pennies = £5.790 -
Alfreton had LOADS of Olympic goodies, I was really spoilt for choice. I bought a magic flannel 50p, multicolour pen with key ring £1, small wenlock and manville cuddly toys which you can stick onto wondows £1, Backpack £2.99 loads of other things.
Also bought Squinkies £2.99 (RRP 9.99), moshi monster bath shower gel £1. Moshi Monster Katsuma sweets (like tick taks) 19p. 4 cans of Echo Falls Spritzers £2.99 (really nice).

Does anyone know if Home Bargains will be getting the 3 Olympic lion teddies back in stock? My niece got them a week ago, they're really cute and I'd love them too, but my 2 nearest HMs don't have them anymore and don't know if they're coming back in? (I consoled myself with buying cuddly Wenlock and Mandeville, but its not quite the same
). 0 -
Hard to tell, they are buying excess stock, i guess they might be a possibility after the games but its always hit and miss with Home Bargains0

oh wanted to do a picture of our olympic stuff before we started giving it away (collected over the past few weeks from nw stores)
mostly from home bargins & poundland the gel stickers (bottom right) were morrisons 50p
the union jack suitcase at the back was tkmaxx £19 (needed it for our trip to the olympics :j)

all these were still full price in london at the official shops
i also bought a team gb drinks holder from tesco for £3 down from £10 i forgot to put it in the photo

That is an amazing about of stuff! I can't believe Home Bargains is selling the stuff off so cheaply. Saw loads of those things full price at an official olympic stall but got a couple of £6.99 keyrings for 39p each in Home Bargains. Really glad I didn't buy one at full price now. You gotta love home bargains.0
