    If there is anything in particular you looking for this year let me know and I will check what stock I see tues night. Have noticed in last week or so some bigger playmobil and other sets have appeared that they don't usually stock.

    That's really kind thanks. Oldest one is into Rapunzel this year and lego friends sets. Also looking for vtech baby driver or leapfrog alphasaurus for nephew. Not planned to buy oodles this year as have been picking bits up during the year but no doubt I will go home with a few carrier bags full!! xx
  • Last year our Saiinsburys had a big banner outside saying about it, there isnt one this year its all about the fireworks etc. They wont say either so not sure if it is here or not on Wednesday (our half term is next week).

    Will go and have a look on Tuesday PM to see but I gues it maybe later in the day or they are not advertising it early?

    Shame its not as good as last years, 50% was awesome (saying that brought loads)OH not beest impressed lol:rotfl:

  • sainsburys always opens for the sainsburys workers at 6am , and there familys cough cough , i stood with all the sainburys workers last year and made small talk as if i new them ! , when the doors opened we went in and a security guard closes the doors and guarded them so no one was allowed in till opening time , we were out at quarter to 7 and we had everything we wanted :) i bet things dont run as smoothly this time x

    Of course ;);) thanks so much for the update :) so its looking highly likely then for Wednesday by the sounds of things. I do like the girls lego camper van but it will depend what % is off it as bought her the "normal" lego camper van last year before the girls range came out. :)Thanks again for keeping an eye out:)

    I did exactly the same accidentally! I had no idea it was for workers only. Can I say my sister works there and get away with it again? This will be the third year I've gone at 6am...
    £20k in 2023 = £2718 £2023 in 2023 = £196.41 Grocery challenge £250= £195.80 **MONEY MAKES ME HAPPY**
