My Tesco, in High Wycombe had the same! They had quite a few of both the
Islander
set, which I didn't buy, and the 6899's, of which I had bought one (but have
still
yet to open, maybe I might now!). The 6899's were only 5.99, which is about
half-
price, I believe. Maybe I might go tomorrow, need a bit of food......

Just the other day whilst out buying a loaf of bread (fun) I wandered past • the

lab, both of which have previously been half price in The entertainer so I • have
multiples already. Also, 6278, islanders big island. This one I had never • seen
- ever, but then it was on sale during my Technic only days. No prices on • the
shelves, so I ask. He doesnt know, but takes the one set I am interested in • to
the customer service desk to find the price is 19.99. Now seing the size of • the
box I figure it would have normally been about twice that, so of course I • am
buying. I get it home and open it to find a japanese 1995 catalogue inside.
Now I wish I had the 100 pounds to buy the other 5 sets hint hint.

You better be quick if you want them as stocks seem quite limited.
And if you cant find it locally, my Tecso's is at cannon park, next to • warwick
uni, coventry.
