Hi :) thanks as always for this thread. Can anyone tell me what the Argos deals seem to be (ie 3for2 etc) approaching Xmas? My twins are 4 in December plus 6yr old DD and they are all getting into Lego and playmobil. Deals keep popping up on Amazon but if there's 342 it might be worth hanging on! The playmobil pirate ship is down to £34.99 at Amazon atm which is a really good price.

Picked up these today in B+M, X Shot zombie blaster 79p (have seen the exact same one on Amazon for £7.50!) and bling up your shoes set 50p

Also picked up a mini Mrs Potato head with car and a mini Transformers style Mr Potato head with Grimlock dinosaur, both £3.75 (reduced from £15) in Wilkos
