Bump, I would like to know if anyone seen these too. My children just get fed-up with most other toys even if I buy them almost new for as little as £1 at car-boot.

I think the leappad has sold out in most shops so i doubt it will be in the sale (sadly), i know there is a thread on here where people are struggling to find them.

Wonder if the big lego sets won't be on offer! Does anyone remember if they were last year?

All the lego was half price last year got loads but I will say the little sets like the ones with one tiny vehicle and one man the sainsburys stores price them far too high compared to tesco so when you get the 1/2 price off I WORKED it out you only save 80p in total compared to Tesco so not worth it, the bigger sets yes def but don't forget that amazon sold lego last year at stupid hour in the morning (yes also stayed up for that:D) and they were 50 if not 60% off and well worth it, I also got loads there so much so that so far it has served one xmas, one birthday and some still left for this xmas:rotfl:

I have it on very good authority that none of the stores are opening early tomorrow morning. I even double checked my store just in case my friend who works in Sainsburys had got it wrong. Along with everyone else saying the same thing here I would get an extra hour in bed if I was you!

Well I'll be really annoyed if my local branch have lied to me and I'm standing there an hour early!

See you all in the car park tomorrow!

Like these ones I mean too highly priced at Sains so it does not work out at 1/2 price:D

Topic could be half as long if people checked

You can't specifically search for 24hr shops!

Never saw any, did see one lonely Toy Story £59.99 interactive but then on ebay followed one BNIB and it sold for £29.99 they would have been gutted:D

I have asked a few times but no one can pin point the date, I seem to remember it was a friday am very early around 5am it was but the date the actual date to stay up for no idea can't even find receipt to verify:D

I think Amazon waited until after midnight and then reduced a load of things to half price just for a few hours, for all the disappointed people on here that had waited up til midnight for nothing. By morning the toys were back to normal price!

Does anyone know what time the sale starts online?
