Sainsburys toy sale (merged)

Everyone should be checking their receipts. EVERY toy item should have HALF PRICE written below it. And your total amount spent should be the same as your amount saved. I was charged full price for Glow Buzz (£41.99) and for Lego Francesco (£25). Went straight to customer services were I was told that is the Buzz price!!! IT IS NOT!! Should be £20.98 so make sure you're checking. Got them to refund the difference after about 10 mins of explaining it to them!! Oh well...... back again at 2pm!!!

Password Journal £11ish (they were going to put the £5.47 sign on at ours too but noticed it was wrong ... shame lol)

Moshi Gold Tin £5
Zhu Zhu Puppy £5 (I was the one crawling on the floor looking for a pink one)

Took some lego sets back already didn't really want them. Seemed to have much more boys toys but still very pleased. Was all very civil, met a nice lady think she was another MSE'r :beer:0 -
Popped out to Filton Sainsburys with the boys to let them choose one present each for now (littlest has been very poorly recently so I thought they could both due with being cheered up). 5-year old chose a remote controlled car and the 3-year old chose a VTech Laptop (piles of them in the bread aisle at the far end of the shop!). The staff were restocking the shelves but could barely keep on top of it. They had boxes and boxes of dancing Mickeys in a big cage yet to be put out and they said they had lots more out back. HTH someone.0

Went to Swansea store this morning around 10.15 (had to wait for DS to wake from his nap) and managed to get:
a megabloks pack-£7.49
toby megabloks-£4.99
playmobil arc set-£9.99 (was pleased with this as there weren't any on the shelves but found one in the frozen section aisle, so its worth looking around the store to see if anything has been abandonded)
wooden puzzle-£1.75
Wasn't really expecting to find much as I started out late but was pleasantly surprised. It was quite calm in there and staff were bringing more things out.
Also, thanks to the poster who mentioned the yeo organic vanilla ice-cream for 50p (900ml container), picked up 3
