Sainsburys toy sale (merged)

BlueCow1975

Hi Victory, I did notice the price of lego hogwarts on amazon (checked out all prices when I returned!!). I do agree with your posts re: keeping an eye out for cheaper deals or similar deals & good job on pointing people in the right direction for good offers from other places. I do think that Sainsburys RRP's are a little interesting at times!! Smart marketing strategy on their point though as they clearly make a lot of money based on volume of sales - not to mention all those potential add on grocery sales as people keep popping back to store during the week.

It is really easy to buy for buying sakes as you get swept up in the sale frenzy!! I did end up putting a few items back (nerf guns and hot wheels stuff) as I really did not need them. Happy bunny now though as I have now finished the kids Christmas shopping, stocked up a few bits in the emergency party presents drawer and got a couple of things for birthdays in Jan next year.

Just as a quick piece of info, heard a couple of more senior members of staff in Bretton/Peterborough store saying that they had hit £4,600 in toy sales by 1pm today, expected to hit £10k!

In our Southampton store I heard a worker saying that they have held a lot of things back, to put out on other days and Bratz was one of them, new stock daily.
