Ireland/U.K. Pony People! I Have Questions!
« on: March 07, 2012, 07:27:07 AM »
I'll be traveling to Ireland this saturday and I desperately want to go pony hunting while I'm there, so can anyone tell me what stores sell ponies? Specifically blind bags, but I'll take anything really. I haven't found any of them anywhere and I'm getting a little desperate! I'm not holding out a lot of hope for g1s but are there any places I might find them too? I'll be in Dublin and Galway mostly, but also Derry and Belfast.

ASDA stores, look up their store locator on google. They're the only place that sells Blind Bags (I think). Good luck!

Tesco and Sainsburys sell ponies but I haven't seen blind bags anywhere except Asda.


Toys R Us, Toymaster and there are a few other chain toy stores that would probably have them.


Whether they have these stores where you are going I don't know I'm afraid!

Cool :-)

Im in Dublin, you wont find a lot here sadly, Ive never come across blind bags..the best place for g4 ponies is Toymaster in Dublin city centre, they have tonnes, Im always in there! Smyths is the main toy store here but dont bother, all they stock is the main 6 or whatever the bronies call them nowadays...lol

charity shops are hit an miss, I rarely get lucky..

Feel free to PM me if you need any help navigating your way around  ;-)

My local branch of The Entertainer toyshop stocks the Wave 3 blind bags but I don't know if there are any branches of that shop in Ireland - try their website www.thetoyshop.com to find out :)

I believe Morrisons have blind bags...but I am not sure if there are any Morrisons in NI or RI....

Smyths Toys also has ponies and they are an Irish store originally so I guess they should have stores in NI or RI
Thank you Matcha for my gorgeous Baby Fifi avi :hug:

Larger Boots stores have G4 ponies, so do some WH Smith stores... blindbags i have only seen in Asda and Morrisons
Again not sure if they have stores in Ireland...

My local Entertainer stocks ponies including Blind Bags but the best I've seen is Symths. They had everything BUT the blind bags.

I was vaguely certain I'd seen Blind Bags in ASDA and Morrisons.

Thanks so much for your help everyone! Looks like I'll be spending a lot of time on google maps before I go :)
