Toys/best toyshops?

[JessicaCT]

Since Woolies closed, where are people getting their cheap toys?

I know we now have the excellent Just Williams in East Dulwich, and Greens in Dulwich Village, but what about cheap basics like paddling pools, rackets & balls, board games, annoying things like Bratz dolls, etc? Sainsburys? ELC? Toys R Us?

Thanks

Sainsburys and also Argos in Peckham though it's a faff sometimes with horrendous queues...

Woolies has made a comeback online!!! woolworths.co.uk. Article in the Guardian on 25th June which you could access online to read. May be worth a try as they are selling children's clothes again!

sainsbury's good, toys r us on old kent road - always finding stuff there that have just paid twice as much for at soup dragon. Also amazon - love that free home delivery and choice bewildering

It isn't as far away as you might think, but I would suggest a look at Smyths in Mitcham (Old B&Q Store, Bond Road, Off Western Road, Mitcham, Surrey CR4 3EB - 0208 6872261 - http://www.smythstoys.com) as a better alternative to toysrus, much nicer staff and just as competitive a range of toys. And I don't have any association with them, other than as a customer.
