Is it just for one day, or does all the good stuff go straightaway?

Weeel In Sainsburys this week

Me, (to very young man assistant) I know the sale is Thursday, will you be having more stock than is here right now (very limited choice)

Assistant, Well I'm not allowed to say if there is sale, but we have lots of new stock waiting out the back, what were you looking for

Me, A Lego Police Station

Ass, Well I cant say if there is any, but we do have more stock, its all on a big crate

Was in a giant Sainsburys for hours today and they didn't say anything.

Pigleychez · 26/10/2011 22:23

Was in Sainsburys on Tuesday and overheard 2 supervisors chatting about changing the isle ends over to toys on Wednesday night.

KirstyAllsorts · 26/10/2011 22:23

Is it online or just in store? ( 3dc's and not a chance of getting into Sainsburys until tomorrow night!!)

Caz10 · 26/10/2011 22:28

Just in store! I can't go early, bah, but apparently last year they restocked in the evening!

HardKnockLife · 27/10/2011 00:24

Toy sale is on online just placed an order (first time i have actually had money at the right time) and its not on all toys but a fair few.

fuckityfuckfuckfuck · 27/10/2011 08:56

Yep, was at our one for 7am. Got some great things, including the Lightning McQueen remote control car and lots of crafty stuff for dd, Gelati and Moondough. Managed to spend far more than I intended, but that's Christmas sorted, and with so many relatives living far away I can label them all up from different people when they ask what the dc would like. I do hope they have lots of stock though, there were people sweeping the shelves clean when I was there so people coming later have no chance :(

Lindax · 27/10/2011 11:40

went to local one this morning and got a couple of the big Transformers toys, Pokemon tins, Tech Deck's.

ours was mad this morning, its a small Sainsburys so only really 1.5 small toy aisles, and there was about 50 mad women with full trolleys in them!!!!!

some people were sneaking toys from other peoples trolleys, so there were a few heated moments!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ENormaSnob · 27/10/2011 12:23

I went about 9am and got a few bits.

Sylvanian stuff.
Fireman sam.
Mega bloks halo.

They seemed to be restocking all the time so hopefully those that go later will get some good stuff too.

We've just been. Already done ds's Xmas shopping so just got a zhu zhu hamster for dn and a set of cars stationary for just 89p for the little boy I support at school. Dsis got ds a huge box of brioesque train track fir just £12.49!!

oldraver · 27/10/2011 15:10

I went to our local one with a plan of moving onto Oxford if I couldn't get what I wanted

Got some Nerfs, small Lego set, Dr Who stuff and a couple of other things. I was disappointed that the major pressies DS wanted (Lego Police Station) wasnt in the sale. I think the previous years everything was.

My back up plan was to get it from Boots on their 3 for 2 but the other thing he wanted is out of stock...sigh

sunnyday123 · 27/10/2011 15:33

i got the dance star mickey for £35 reduced from £70 - £90 on amazon! I also got zubber, plasticine bits, sylvanian windmill for £25 and figure sets for £4 :). Mine is a tiny sainsburys and so had a few of each thing - did restock though. Had more in store than on web site . The dance star mickey has since sold out of every sainsburys in lancashire apparently!

PrimaBallerina · 27/10/2011 17:50

It's still mayhem this afternoon.

I abandoned DS in the middle of the aisle in his pushchair and got my elbows out.

I got:

Playmobil Noah's Ark £10
Fisher Price chatter telephone £3
Bob the Builder hat and toolbelt set £17
Pull along wooden dog £3.50
ITNG small soft toys £3 each

And when I got to the till I had £37.50 points to use. Bargain!

RefereezaWanka · 27/10/2011 18:32

Just popped into our local one and got a huge Hello Kitty plush toy and some Ninjago lego for under a tenner - better than half price, actually.

oldraver · 27/10/2011 19:25

Our Sainsburys had the HM Forces Harrier for £30, a major bargain. I was soo tempted as DS had expressed a liking for it in out local toyshop allong with most of the contents of the Argos book.

Anyway not getting it but a bargain if anyone is looking for it
