    Default 30% off some toys at David-Jones to 5th Oct (not TFs)

    Despite the advertisement suggesting it was an 'all toys' sale, the fineprint has the discount only applying to a number of brands, which doesn't include Transformers.
    As such, the following was originally posted, and can be ignored.

    According to the latest paper advertisement, and on their website, David Jones has 30% off all toys and boardgames until 5th October.
    http://www.davidjones.com.au/images/...OctEvent08.pdf

    They are pretty consistently one of the most expensive stores for TFs, and one of the slowest to get in stock. And I haven't been keeping track of what they are stocking these days either, so it's anyone's guess what you might find there.

    I think they still price Deluxes at $30, so that would make it $21 at the sale price.

    OK... someone go check and correct me :P

    If it is ALL toys, I doubt they would bother including a "from" list

    besides since when did "from" = "e.g."?

    if there's anyone free and could do it earlier...that would be great and save me running to DJ too

    The sale should have started, as it was advertised in yesterday's paper.
    And since there is different sized font between 'all toys' and 'from...' it should cover all toys, with the rest being an example (like Kmart usually putting in a small selection of brand logos in their %-off sale catalogue adverts).
    But verification will help clear up the confusion.
