Hiya My local WHSmiths is having a sale and although there isn't any Lego on the actual 'Sale' shelves, I noticed that they have cut the prices on many sets (not including Star Wars sets). A few sets that were £5/£6 are now £3/£4 and a couple of £11 (...) (26 years ago, 25-Jun-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)
