My Little Man is obsessed with those Little Tikes Cosy Coupe cars, as I suspect many small ones are. Whenever he sees one at a soft play or out on a trip, he makes a a beeline straight for it! But I could never quite bring myself to buy one, as they’re a little pricey, and he does often play in them when he’s out anyway.
But, I happened to pop on to eBay a couple of weeks ago, which I rarely do so it must have been fate, and I spotted one there with no bids on it, ending in 2 minutes time. I gave it a whirl, and yes, I got it – for just a fiver!
The Husband went to collect it that week, and the very next day, a work colleague of his was giving away a Little Tikes slide, so he brought that home, too. The kids are happy!
It’s a shame the weather’s got wetter and cooler, but they’ve still managed to get out there and play. To be honest, Little Man is very proprietorial over his car, so there can be rows over that one, but I know that once she starts school, these two bargains will allow me to get lots of gardening done, whilst Little Man plays to his heart’s content!
I do love a bargain!
Wow that is the eBay dream and it’s never happened to me. I bought new versions of those things (we’ve got the bigger slide though) with as many discounts and vouchers as possible and yes, they are well worth the money as they have been used a huge amount over the last couple of years! #countrykids
It’s a one-off for me – I need never use it again as I can’t be that lucky twice! They definitely get their use, don’t they?!
Wow that is a bargain! Little Man looks like he is loving it. Love those Little Tikes cars 🙂
He LOVES that car!
Oh I do love a bargain. Yes, I remember Little Man enjoying our Little Tikes car and my son darting outside to ensure no one else got a go the second there was interest! You’re all set now 🙂
Yes! He loves these cars, and now we’re sorted 🙂
I’ve not found a child yet who doesn’t love those Coupe cars. We had a Little Tikes climbing cube thing with a slide, even my non adventurous Monkey loved that #CountryKids
No, everyone seems to adore them! Ah yes, they’re brilliant, too.
Well done on your bargains 🙂 hopefully they will get lots of use still this year as I’ve heard a rumour *shhh* summer is supposed to be coming back next week!
Oh, please let it be true!
Oh my kids LOVE those Little Tikes cars, they always make a beeline for them whenever we go to any play areas. Great bargains, and lovely to see simple garden fun! #CountryKids
They’re brilliant! Thanks, Kate – they’re so happy out there!
Well done you! What a great bargain!! Those cars are just fab! My girls used to love the one we had!
I know – so pleased with myself!! x
What a great find and how lucky to have the slide given to you as well! I can see many a happy hour spent playing in the garden. Thanks for linking up and sharing the fun with Country Kids.
They are so happy with them! Thanks x
Wow! Bargain! We got the cosy coupe in the Black Wednesday sale before Christmas (not as good a bargain as you got) and it was an indoor toy for a while. My girls love it! Worth every penny.
It is such a popular toy, isn’t it?!
Fantastic Bargains! They look like they are loving them and having so much fun! Well done you! Xx
I was so happy with these! I just know they’ll get hours worth of play out of them, and all for a fiver!x
