BUILD-A-BEAR has launched a huge online-only clearance sale with up to 50% off toys.
The discounts include characters from Frozen, The Lion King and Trolls to name a few.
You can't buy Build-A-Bear toys elsewhere, so these are the best prices you'll find for its branded products.
However, it's still important to shop around as you may find cheaper toys that look like Build-A-Bear elsewhere.
Parents will also want to note that the bears don't include accessories, so you'll pay extra for outfits - although you can get up to 60% off some clothing as part of the sale too.
The sale is online now and available until 11:59pm this Thursday, October 15.
How to compare prices to get the best deal
JUST because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn't mean it's always a good deal.
There are plenty of comparison websites out there that'll check prices for you - so don't be left paying more than you have to.
Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.
Here are some that we recommend:
- is a tool that lets users search for and compare prices for products across the web. Simply type in keywords, or a product number, to bring up search results.
- logs the history of how much something costs from over 3,000 different retailers, including Argos, Amazon, eBay and the supermarkets. Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock.
- is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers. All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one.
- only works on goods being sold on Amazon. To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.
As it's online-only, you won’t get these discounts in Build-A-Bear shops. It also means you’ll have to factor in delivery costs to your order.
Standard delivery starts at £3.99, going up to £5.99 for next day delivery or £7.99 for weekend shipping.
Build-A-Bear has 52 stores across the UK plus five more in Ireland.
