Olympic stuff at silly prices!

Just goes to show, you can't please all of the people all of the time....

Just bought my 6 year old a hoodie and my 3 year old a t shirt from Play. They look great for the 4.99/2.99 price tag. Hopefully my son will be pleased as he is now Olympics obsessed! Thanks to the poster who said about Play!

Wow thankyou so much for this, my little boy had some birthday money which he was saving to buy the police man figure for £10 when we go shopping on saturday so he now can have all six for the same money and we are picking them up from the shop on Saturday :beer: he will be over the moon :beer:

Sorry to go a bit off topic, but are everyone's children really into Olympic stuff now? This stuff clearly didn't sell during the games, so are you just getting it now because its a bargain, or do you genuinely want memorabilia & souvenirs?
And what did your kids think of the mascots?
Just curious (it is to do with my job) & I'd be grateful for some feedback!

I think the previous prices were so high that no body purchased the items. Now they are at sensible prices more people are buying.

Mine are Olympics mad even though my husband and I really aren't interested. They seem to really like to mascots although I think they look awful LOL. I keep thinking of the term "one eyed monster" :rotfl:
