70% off selected toys at Sainsburys

My local Sainsburys only has a small selection of toys but this morning I noticed that they had a lot of outside type toys/games with 70% off.

The assistant said they had only just reduced them to 70% off this morning. There was some Peppa Pig stuff in amongst it.

Examples: boys car club play tent reduced from £14.99 to £4.49 and Space Hopper £5.99 to £1.80.

Hope it's of interest to somebody.

    Typical, I didn't go to my Sainsburys near work at lunchtime - will see if there's anything left tomorrow.

    I got a trike for my toddler, was priced at £24.99 with 70% off - advertised at £7.49, however when I got to the till, they had the normal price at £14.99 with 70% off, so I actually paid £4.49 for it! It's going to be part of her 2nd birthday present!

    Thanks


    They had construction vehicles and SOS vehicles about 3/4 different types of each pack. They were about £1.20 or £1.40 for a pack of 3 - might make a good stocking filler or even party bag filler. They also had individual Matchbox cars for about 89p each, but my boy is all about fire engines and diggers at the moment!!! Hope that helps,

    Fantastic Thanks OP.

    Went to Sainsbury's Durham today (expecting a wasted journey) and got;

    Zinc Girls Scooter 12.99 - 3.90
    Hopper 4.99 - 1.79
    Cars 2 Speedway ball pool 29.99 - 9.00

    Thats christmas well on the way!

    interestingly everything has gone through the till at 1p more than the SEL, but think a penny an item is worth it at these prices :rotfl:

    Loads of stuff in - also had peppa pig wheelbarrow sets, small peppa gardening sets and peppa tea sets with 70% off.
