The coronavirus pandemic has struck again as Smyths Toys Ireland has cancelled its usual Christmas bargain of €10 off for every €50 you spend.
The popular retailer made the decision saying that it cannot risk having large volumes of shoppers flock to stores in a short period of time with social distancing in place.
Instead, the chain has said that they will be introducing plenty of new bargains for customers to enjoy this festive season.
Smyths have several stores in both north and south Dublin, at Airside Retail Park in Swords, the Blanchardstown Centre, Fonthill Retail Park in Clondalkin, Tallaght Retail Centre, on Jervis Street in the city centre and The Park in Carrickmines.
However, it is hoped the offer will return in 2021.
A spokesperson said: "Unfortunately, our 10 off every 50 promotion will not run for 2020.
"We cannot responsibly encourage a large volume of customers to visit our stores in a short time period while adhering to social distancing guidelines.
"However, we are excited to announce we will have more promotions and super savings on your favourite toy brands throughout the autumn-winter period.
"Sign up to our social channels and email campaigns to keep up with the latest news!"
