Where are you?!

I wouldn’t stress about it too much. They always increase each items price beforehand. Often cheaper to just buy off amazon x

I was reading one of the xmas threads and its not happening this year. They have replaced it with the toy sale they had on last week.
I'm still hoping it will make an appearance though 🤞🤞

@kazza446 I normally felt like that but I got some cracking Lego deals last year. I always price check and avoid the ones they raise.

@purpleolive you didnt miss much, it was rubbish and the argos website/app wouldn't work properly.

Tesco and Sainsbury's have their toy sales soon though.

RuskBaby · 02/10/2019 20:57

Is there anything in particular you were looking for?

Lego and transformers, although quite often use it as inspiration if that makes sense?! They rarely write prescriptive lists so often use it for a few surprises.

(Thanks for the Tesco recommendation, got a transformer set for half price)

Argos has Transformers in their 2 for £15 promotion. I got 2 for DS.

Smyths has discounted Lego at the moment. And if you're on their mailing list, delivery is free.

Any particular theme you'd like? We buy loads of Batman Lego which then gets repurposed after being built and played with.

@NoWordForFluffy oh great I will grab an Argos catalogue at lunch.

Yes there seems to be loads of Batman Lego out on sale at the moment.

I'd like to get the Harry Potter bus for my eldest who is very capable, but my youngest is 6 and needs the simpler 5+ sets, he likes Lego city.

It all ends up in one box eventually 🙈

The Harry Potter bus, and other Harry Potter sets, has been around 20% off on amazon lately

Also worth setting up a camelcamelcamel alert

NoWordForFluffy · 03/10/2019 10:56

There was a new Very customer tip about HP Lego. £30 off a £60 spend on an already-reduced set, bringing it in at less than £50 for a £90 set.

My friend works for Argos and she said they are no longer doing the 3 for 2 anymore

babycakes1010 · 03/10/2019 11:09

@purpleolive Harry potter bus is £26 at the moment on Amazon
