Your local pound shop. Wilkinsons. Argos. Ebay? ELC. Mothercare.

I think a lady on here has started selling bean bags? Try using the search bar for bean bags.

I've seen them in Asda and ELC ,but have you a £ shop nearby they have a good selection. Where's good old Woolies !!!!

I would say Asda & tesco's. Tesco's actually have a set of them together for like a sports day activity pack. I saw them whilst in there the other day

Bean bags are very easy to make!!! Could be fun activity!

**grindal** · 02-06-2009, 03:01 PM

The local cheap shops on our high street sell things like this - not sure how long their life span would be with a lot of use though!

Tesco and asda have a little sports day kit usually with bean bags, hoops and timer. I also got my skipping rope from Tesco.
