    And sometimes they re sticker and hike up the prices instore before the sale, so go online, add your stuff to your basket, let them there and show them on the day, they usually honour the prices. just in case like:cool:

    Crazy in Smyths this am! The 20% is off everything except software/games/tablets, etc.... So basically off toys. People going round with trolleys and car park was manic too! Watch out for price increases since yesterday too. I had made a list last night after I saw it adverised, and 4 items on my list that had been reduced had gone back up to full price today.

    Yup was like the end of the world in my local Smyths. Everyone getting their Christmas stuff, some people had 2/3 trolleys. Staff said they were getting deliveries all weekend so stuff will be restocked.

    Got a few bits today. Had checked prices yesterday and anything reduced I was looking at was still reduced today.

    Do price check against argos before you buy. I was getting the imaginext batcave and even with 20% off argos was a couple euro cheaper. MAybe not worth it for an extra journey but still a small saving

    dropped into the Jervis St. branch there at lunchtime, got a few small bits for the wee lad. was pretty quiet in there, shelves well stocked. prices for me were cheaper or on a par with Amazon, so will put away for Christmas

    A little OT, but PLEASE dont buy your kids bikes in Halfords or Smyths. I have two kids and made the mistake of buying a bike in Halfords for my 5 year old. Its a bloody tank, it weighed nearly 13kg (and he only weighed 17!)

    If you can afford it (as they are in the €200-300 range), buy a frog bike, islabike or early rider. The resale value on these bikes are fantastic (you'll get at least half it back) and they are proper light bikes made of proper bike parts! 6kg vs 13kg!!

    Sure if it was 13kg why did you buy it? It's not like they arnt on display beforehand.

    well, thats my point. I didnt know how heavy they were until I brought the dam thing home. I'm warning people not to make the same mistake! There's no weight on display on the kids bikes (for obvious reasons).

    Most people wouldn't be aware of the weight difference bikes. It's not just the weight though. Cheaper bikes have very poor components like brakes. Which are harder to keep adjusted correctly or stand up to abuse. Cheap steel Parts rust. Aluminium doesn't

    And my two pence when it come's to kid's bikes dont but them with gears. If the bike gets knocked or thrown down the gears get bashed. Sorry to be off topic slightly.

    Was n Smyths in Galway this morning, great crowd in there.

    Gear are handy for hills or rough ground. But like any device it needs maintaining. If its going to left in a garden in the rain, get the cheapest bare bones thing you can. Like a BMX.

    No to be honest I drove from kk to carlow, had it in my head that the ken black in carlow was smyths for some reason! Was effing and blinding when pulled in and it was KB! Luckily it worked out well in the end
