I absolutely agree with you. I was rather gob smacked by the complete absence of decs, wrap etc. At my local stores. Usually I am able to find half a dozen things for the present cupboard...

im havinv the same problem this year too

Very true. The Asda I called into this morning had Xmas wrap reduced from £3 to £1. That seemed to be it

u mean connect 4???

Thank god Connect 4 is still alive in 2015/16

Thank you, just bought some to donate to a charity initiative that give toys to impoverished children

I once modified a Connect Four to make a "Moron Edition". Removed the top three rows - made it much more difficult to lose. :-)

Different Manufacturer, different name but same game in essence. If it makes you feel better, you can paint the green discs red! :smiley:

Remember playing Connect 4 in Primary school.The last day of term used to be a games day and there were no classes.Children could bring in their own toys to play in the class as well.
Wonder if they still play Connect 4 in Primary schools now,as most kids these days seem to be using tablets.I'm sure there's a computer version of Connect 4 out there somewhere.

We break out all the classic Board Games over the Christmas. Great fun playing Frustration, Scrabble, Monopoly, Trivial Pursuit! The old ones are the best! :smiley:

Operation,Simon Says,Kerplunk,Twister,Cluedo,Rubiks cube...etc.
Smartphones hadn't been invented yet...:smile:
