***THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED! THANK YOU TO ALL WHO ENTERED AND GOOD LUCK!***

It's time once again for the Mastermind Toys Annual Warehouse Sale! This is a great time to stock up on all kinds of gifts for holidays, birthdays and baby gifts at prices up to 70% off! At our warehouse Sale you'll find lots of fantastic deals on a variety of high quality toys and games from Lego to Playmobil to Thomas the Tank Engine. It truly is a great sale and it only happens once a year.

Over the years we've sought out larger spaces so we can offer you even more selection and stock more inventory, but we also know that our warehouse sale is so popular that people will patiently line up before the warehouse sale opens and it can pet a wee bit crowded at times. So, we came up with an idea: What about running a contest to help a few of our customers jump to the front of the line? Imagine, no waiting, shopping without crowds, wouldn't that be nice?

Curious yet?

ANNOUNCING THE FIRST ANNUAL 'JUMP TO THE FRONT OF THE LINE' MASTERMIND TOYS WAREHOUSE SALE CONTEST!

This year we are going to give TEN people the chance to JUMP TO THE FRONT OF THE LINE at this year's Warehouse Sale! And because we don't want you to shop alone, we're letting each of our winners bring a friend! For one hour our winners and their friends will get to shop before anyone else does (this means no crowds!) And that's ot all! Winners of the amazing contest will also get to come in a serparate VIP entrance where we will have a lovely continental breakfast for you to enjoy before you enter the sale! (We wouldn't want your energy levels to dip while you're shopping!)

This means:

On May26th, the FIRST day of the sale, each winner and a friend get to enter the HUGE Mastermind Toys Warehouse Sale at 8am, a whole HOUR before it opens to the public!
