    Oh I selfishly hope it is next week as I couldn't manage this week with the kids in tow (not back to school until tomorrow!). Seems odd there were lots of half price reductions on toys lately though - I don't remember that from previous years and when I looked in my local on Monday the toy shelves were about two thirds empty as if they had just been running stock down ready for the Christmas toys rather than selling off cheap :(

    funny you should say that because my local has been quite full. Theres a few items at half price but that's it. I do hope its next weds I was stood outside at 8:25am the staff must have thought I was mad!

    Just back from our nearest store, hardly anything on the 2 toy shelves but few bits half price or a couple of pounds off. Picked up 3 things as 3 for 2 still on 'baby' event plus 250 extra points on a £25 shop (from the advantage card machine). That's 3 in the cupboard now littley is back at school and the party invites are coming in already!
  • I've just been to my big boots, there lots of things for half price and 3 for 2. Mostly baby toys though, a few bits of playmobil, mike the knight, Micky mouse etc.
    The sales assistant said there isn't going to be a 75% off sale this year, she said whatever doesn't get sold will get recalled but I'm not if they really know what's happening?
    Last year there was lots of baby things like blankets, prams etc in the sale but there wasn't anything today.
  • Just rang my local def no 75% today:(
  • Popped in early this morning, there was no 75% off just a few more bits added to the half price sale. Still going through as 3 for 2.
  • No 75% off in my local Boots either. I asked the cashier to check a couple of prices for me just in case the price labels hadn't been changed but the items scanned at the displayed price. :(

    Naff all worth looking at today, I picked up a couple of little bit, Moshi figure packs reduced to £1.33 and Waybuloo bath stuff at 1.66. All went through the till at full p rice, I had to go and query it.
    However, I did pick up 342 items in Mini Club clothing, which was already reduced to half price and I had a voucher for £3 off when spending £12 or more. So what should have been £27 came in at £9 and extra points. :)

    Obsessing about remortgaging and interest rates all day, every day:)
