Available at 100+ toy stores – go early

If you're after a freebie that's out of this galaxy, this could Obi the Wan for you...

Visit any Smyths toy store from 9am on Saturday 3 May (over 100 stores, find your nearest) to get a free Lego mini Millennium Falcon, while stock lasts.

This offer is first come, first served – so once they're gone, they're gone. You can't book a place, so go early (and be prepared to queue). The mini figure is suitable for ages six and over. It's exclusive to this Smyths in-store event, and can't be purchased.

This deal isn't Solo... there's more free Lego Star Wars to be had – see how to get a free Lego Grogu at Lego Stores on Saturday 3 May or Sunday 4 May.

At 20+ stores. First come, first served

If you love Lego and Star Wars then you'll Hans down be interested in this freebie...

Pop into a Lego Store on Saturday 3 May from 10am to midday or Sunday 4 May from midday to 2pm (find your nearest) and you can build your own Lego Star Wars Grogu figure at its in-store event and take it to a galaxy far, far away (or just home, if you prefer).

A limited number are available each day on a first come, first served basis and we reckon this will be popular, so it's best to be prompt.

Lego says this is intended for children aged eight and over. You won't be able to buy the Grogu figure as it's exclusive to the event.

If you're heading out and about with the kids and looking for ideas of what to do, see our Cheap Days Out round-up.
