UK - No singles at Sainsburys or Tesco!

Wow Snork I think you are one of the first to come across those wedding singles - I know they have been found in dribs and drabs at some Argos stores but in a Tesco is new. Thats good that means they are still stocking the new waves

[Gogobinsin]

If the new wave they're stocking is just the wedding mane six and not Lyra, Trixie, Sunny Rays and Cherry Berry I'll be disappointed cause that means we'll have to wait a few more months till they sell all that stock before moving onto the new ones. Unless they are included in this wave as they are wedding singles too?

My local Tesco's also has the mane 6 wedding singles. I'm glad that they are still marked as the sale price as the mountain of luggage mane 6 didn't seem to move until their price was reduced, so hopefully these will fly off the shelves to make room for the next wave

Yes thats what worries me - the luggage main 6 sat on shelves long enough that the supermarket had to discount them so how the heck long will it take until the wedding main 6 actually sell!

I went into Tescos today and they also have the wedding ponies - but they only had two Fluttershys, a Pinkie and I think AJ. So that means that the ponies in the rest of the box have sold in a couple of days, which is good! They are priced at £2.97 too. Almost tempted to get them to keep MiB like I did with the luggage ponies before I decided I wasn't buying identical characters on principle...

If somebody is willing to pick me up 2x Rainbow Dash and 2x Rarity (don't care which wave!), debox and send them to me, which I will of course pay for in full, could they PM me?

It seems like there are only a few of us being deprived by our supermarkets which is a good sign, but I want baits!

Omg I so want trixie....gonna see if the big tesco has restocked

[Gaspode]

Daff - I stupidly didn't buy some the other day in sainsburys but I might be able to get back there before Saturday if you still need some picking up? Decided I want some g4 baits so I am going to have to talk hubby into a run lol!

[DaffyDilly]

Yes please Gaspode, that would be much appreciated!

[Gaspode]

Ok I will try

Also found them in my local Tesco. They had the wedding single mane six (only one Twilight left though) at £2.97 each.

They also had the bridesmaid ponies at £9.95, though they hadn't been put out yet.

[Shlugh]

I think half of the trouble is the G4's aren't appealing to children!

My daughter and friends have all gone off them since G3 and G3.5 ended. We did a charity fundraiser recently through work, and had a family fun day. I sold off about 200 loose G3 ponies, all going to young girls, many of whom (and their mums) commented how "nice" it was to buy the "pretty" ponies rather than the modern ones.

Is it maybe that collectors simply aren't buying enough to clear the old stock, and the little girls don't want them?

Well my Tesco has ponies back in stock [phew] - about 18 of the wedding singles, the bridle single sets and talking Cadence. However they were all full price of £4.97 for the singles. I guess my Tesco decided it did not wish to participate in the sale. Naughty...

Daffy do you have an Entertainer near you? They have the singles for £3 at the moment as well.

[Ringlets]

If anyone has a store nearby that has old stock ponies on sale  , could  you please pick me up a travelling Twilight and Dash? I would really appreciate it     they have those still at our local TRU but they are £4.99
 Party is there still a Pinkie train set at your local tesco for £11.95 ? - I still need that too .

[DaffyDilly]

No Entertainer near here although I'm considering placing an online order

I will be going to Tesco at the weekend so will check again then!
