Hi

I want to donate a couple of tesco mis price toys to a children's home or similar but don't know how.

Usually there's drop points in shops but I've not seen any this year.

Does anyone know of any stores where I can do this?

I live in the Leeds area.
Lead me not into temptation, I can find the way myself.

wins - peroni bottle opener, peroni bowl, peroni coastersx2 and a vodkat cocktail kit,
would love to win something 'proper'!!

    Often commercial radio stations do Christmas appeals for toys for children, I'm not sure which station will be your local one (Radio Aire?), maybe worth checking their website

    You can please some of the people some of the time, all of the people some of the time, some of the people all of the time but you can never please all of the people all of the time

    Not sure if it's just a Preston thing but Rock FM are saying you can drop presents into Asda

    My local Asda (Bury, Lancs) has a trolley for this - ironic for toys purchased from tesco though?
