Woolworths.co.uk are offering Mumsnetters family tickets (for four people) to a special, red-carpet showing of Ice Age 3 in 3D this Saturday morning (4 July).

The London showing is full but there are still tickets for Aberdeen, Birmingham, Brighton, Cardiff, Castelford, Didsbury, Edinburgh, Hull, Ipswich, Milton Keynes, Nottingham and Sheffield.

If you'd like one, please email your full name, address and preferred cinema to [email protected]. But get your skates on: tickets are limited and will be offered on a strictly first-come, first-served basis.

LOL I bet nobody dares buy a froot shoot

I shall be the one with two browned and blond little ones, you can all judge me for not using suncream

POTC · 02/07/2009 21:40

I'd go for c King

tiredemma · 02/07/2009 21:40

if there are other Mnetters at the BHAM one, please ignore me, I am working a night shift tomorrow and so will probably be asleep through the film and look like shit.

Hassled · 02/07/2009 21:36

Marvellous - I've been missing Woolies. Will have a look at the site.

KingCanuteIAm · 02/07/2009 21:35

So are the cinemas booked just for Wollies and MN or are there other favoured sites getting this treat?

Or Are you all going to be walking into a room full of just Mners looking at you?

Or are your dc going to watch the film whilst their mothers play spot the MNer and try to put faces and names together?

clumsymum · 02/07/2009 21:35

Oh Hassled, do keep up

This is a re-incarnation of woolworths.co.uk, the name was bought up by another company.

If you're interested, here is the report from The Times

poorbuthappy · 02/07/2009 21:32

Just tried for Cardiff, haven't been online all day (for the 1st time in probably 6 months!!)

Disenchanted3 · 02/07/2009 21:31

Why would it be a trick?

Its easy enough to phone your local cinema and check there is an 'ice age premier with woolies' (hang on aren't wollies dead?!) on Sat?

POTC · 02/07/2009 21:31

The online domain was purchased when the company was split up in administration. They've just started using it.

mosschops30 · 02/07/2009 21:30

Have just re-launched themselves online only

Hassled · 02/07/2009 21:28

Sorry, but Woolworths? So they still exist then?

mosschops30 · 02/07/2009 21:28

yay I have some for Cardiff

POTC · 02/07/2009 21:25

Will see you in Ipswich Goober and Sherby

Goober - am guessing you've sussed it's me in my lazy typing guise but if not is Pillock

PfftTheMagicDragon · 02/07/2009 21:22

lets hope this isn't an elaborate trick

suwoo · 02/07/2009 21:04

Oh you've made me panic now Lupus, because DS is only 2 and hasn't been to the cinema before. I don't suppose he will keep his glasses on anyway. Is it a U or a PG? Will check.....

cathcat · 02/07/2009 21:00

Help I rechecked my email and realised I did not include my full name and address!! Shall I try again?

tiredemma · 02/07/2009 20:48

Is Adam a Mnetter now then??
(he must be mnetting from home- he will never get any work done again, my constant mnetting at work contributed massively to me being first on the list for redundancy- he will regret ever logging into mnet, it wll destroy him)

madamy · 02/07/2009 20:47

I've just seen this after returning from a long, hot nursing shift (sob story lol!!) so have emailed in the desperate hope of tickets for Nottingham!!

TheOtherMaryPoppinsDiets · 02/07/2009 20:45

Is it a freaky experience then? I've never seen 3D

LupusinaLlamasuit · 02/07/2009 20:42

woo hoo - got confirmation! Thanks!

Now, is my 4 yo going to be fraeked out by 3D?

TheOtherMaryPoppinsDiets · 02/07/2009 20:40

Have emailed you Adam

By all means keep sending requests through - I'm optimistic of the chances of squeezing you in once they've reviewed today's numbers but no promises of course ;)

snigger · 02/07/2009 20:28

My sister emailed at 17.35 but hasn't had confirmation for Hull - I'll tell her to be patient
