just been for a little look round as our store has been revamped and wasn't sure where the toy aisle was and there were staff there who were filling trolleys with toys that I presume they are putting by for themselves - really made me wish I work there!!

Just been to Ashton and the staff were filling their trollies and openly talking about it. It sort of anoyed me for a minuite but its just a perk of the job and i would love to work there right now, lol.
There wasn't that much in ashton, there only seemed to be 3 or 4 of the things they did have. The had the cookie dog, dancing mickey, hello kitty mega blocks house, the dolls house, play kitchen and checkout etc... it opens at 8 but oldham opens at 7 so going there first.
Does anyone know the the toy selection is like at stockport or heaton park, cant think of any other local stores???
I'm after woody n the girl cowboy from toystory for my little girl. Has anyone seen the anywhere? not sure if sainsburys actually sell them

the toy section in northampton seems to have shrunk so nothing there my kids really want even at half price, the sylvanian stuff is quite overpriced so not always a mega bargain (considering u can get 3 for 2 in boots etc), i wanted to get ds a 'sing-a ma-gig' toy for xmas but they seemed to have stopped selling them in my store recently

They had these at MK and at Bedford. Gonna get one for DD2. Is Nton not worth it then? Was gonne go up there after Mk x

What happens with stores that open 24 hours, does the sale start at midnight ?

I think if this is the case, Sainsburys should still make sure they have full shelves at opening time!

Anyone know what size the cockermouth store is. Its closer to me, But I have never been there before?

What's with the dancing mickey? Has anybody got a link pls so I can have a look. And how much are they going for?

Can't find it online

DD2 is obsessed with mickey and minnie. She has the minnie that dances and sings the hotdog song, and love mickeys playhouse (I find myself singing the songs under my breath without realising lol). She has set her heart on the dancing mickey so its the one thing I really want. If it becomes a rareity we can't afford to pay those ebay prices so fingers crossed for tommorrow or she may have to do without.
