If you’re buying toys online, Smyths is offering free standard delivery for new and existing account holders.

You can register to get free standard delivery (2-4 days) on most items. It's not valid on 16 bulky items - see the offer T&Cs for full exclusions.

Standard delivery normally costs £4.99 for orders under £10, and £2.99 for orders between £10 and £25, so this could be a good deal if you're buying toys for Christmas.

The offer launched in October and Smyths says it's ongoing.

There's no denying that Lego is a popular toy and/or collector's item, but there's an issue which we can't block out - Lego can be expensive. So hopefully this deal will help you out.

If you're between six and 14 (sorry grown-ups, this one isn't for you - but you will have to stay with your kids when you take them), go into your nearest official Lego store (there's more info on where below) on the first Thursday of every month between 4-6pm to take part in the Lego Mini Build.

Get there as soon as you can, as stock is limited to 200-300 models per store (depending on size and location), and it's first come, first served. Staff will show your kids how to make the model, which Lego told us is worth around £5 (but it's not for sale). Once it's been made - it should take about 10-15 mins - the kids can then take it home for free.

The models are different each month, and you normally don't know what you're going to get until you get there.

If you go online to The Entertainer*, you can get up to 50% off in its clearance sale. Delivery's £3.99 or free if you spend over £40. If you spend over £10, you can click & collect in store for free (find your nearest*). 

We've asked The Entertainer whether the sale is on in stores too, and we'll update you here once we know more. If you live near a store, it may be worth popping in to check.
