If you click a link with an * to go through to a provider, we may get paid. This usually only happens if you get a product from it. This is what funds our team of journalists, and keeps us free to use. Yet there are two crucial things you need to know about this.
- This never impacts our editorial recommendations – if it's in, it's in there because we independently rate it best.
- You'll always get as good a deal (or better) than if you went direct.

The Entertainer 'up to 50% off' sale
Incl Lego Disney, Early Learning Centre, Peppa Pig
ExpiredYou can get up to 50% off toys and games online with toy retailer The Entertainer*, or in any of its stores (find your nearest*). Although 'up to 50% off' covers most of the sale discounts, we've spotted as much as 75% off some items.
We've asked The Entertainer when the sale's due to end and we'll update here once we know.
If shopping online, delivery's £3.99 or free if spending £39.99 or more. Roughly the same range is available for the same prices on The Entertainer's eBay store, but it told us you're more likely to see low-stock items on the main website, so the range will be larger.
Here are some strong examples we found on Mon 12 Oct (not including delivery):
- Funko Pop! Captain Marvel neon bobblehead – £3.33 (was £10). Next cheapest: £3.49 at Forbidden Planet
- Disney Frozen 2 Anna fancy dress set - £12 (was £18). Couldn't find elsewhere.
- Early Learning Centre sensory ball pit - £14.99 (was £29.99). Next cheapest: £38.14 at OnBuy. (Same price, 14.99, at Early Learning Centre, owned by The Entertainer
The Entertainer may not always be the cheapest so be sure to check prices at other retailers first. However, some of the sale items are also marked as 'lowest price guarantee' eligible, which means you'll get the difference back via e-gift card if you spot the same item cheaper elsewhere.See our Kids & Toys deals for more discounts.

Use the Money Mantras
Before spending, use Martin’s Mantras. If you answer 'NO' to any, then don't buy!
Then ask:
- Do I need it?
- Can I afford it?
- Have you checked prices elsewhere?
Then ask:
- Will I use it?
- Is it worth it?
Free protection for all shopping!
There's a little-known piece of legislation that turns any credit card into a financial self-defence superhero. 'Section 75' of the Consumer Credit Act means your plastic must protect anything you buy for more than £100 for free, so if there's a problem or the company goes bust, you can still get your money back.
And although Section 75 doesn't apply to debit cards, there is something else to fall back on if you've paid using a debit card, or used a credit card for a purchase under £100. Known as Chargeback, this is part of banks' and card companies' internal rules and not a legal requirement. Read full details of Section 75 or Chargeback, plus how to claim, in our guides.
What the * means above
If a link has an * by it, that means it is an affiliated link and therefore it helps MoneySavingExpert stay free to use, as it is tracked to us. If you go through it, it can sometimes result in a payment or benefit to the site. It's worth noting this means the third party used may be named on any credit agreements.
You shouldn’t notice any difference and the link will never negatively impact the product. Plus the editorial line (the things we write) is NEVER impacted by these links. We aim to look at all available products. If it isn't possible to get an affiliate link for the top deal, it is still included in exactly the same way, just with a non-paying link. For more details, read How this site is financed.
