Christmas Delivery Dates
Here are the last dates to order from Toys at Foys and have it in time for Christmas. We'll keep this page updated if anything changes.
Last order dates
| How you're getting it | Order by |
|---|---|
| Large items — go-karts, swing sets, ride-ons, playhouses | Thursday 10th December |
| Standard delivery, Ireland and Northern Ireland | Friday 18th December |
| An Post Next Day Guaranteed Delivery | Wednesday 23rd December |
| Click and collect in Ballybofey | Thursday 24th December |
Large items need longer
Big Go-karts, swing sets, ride-ons and playhouses don't go by courier — we deliver those ourselves, which takes one to two weeks. That's why they close off earlier than everything else.
Order one of these by Thursday 10th December and it'll be with you for Christmas. After that we can't promise it, though it's always worth ringing us on (074) 913 4444 to see what's possible.
Delivery on large items is free over €250, and €50 under that.
Everything else
Orders placed before 1pm, Monday to Friday, are usually on their way the same day. Most arrive the next working day and nearly all within two. Delivery is €7, free on orders over €70, anywhere in Ireland and Northern Ireland.
We've set Friday 18th December as the last day for standard delivery. That week is the busiest of the year for every courier in the country, and we'd rather give you a date we can stand over than one that only works if nothing goes wrong.
Leaving it late?
Right up to Wednesday 23rd December, choose An Post Next Day Guaranteed Delivery at checkout — €20 for parcels up to 20kg. It costs more than standard post, but we used it right through last Christmas and it did exactly what it says.
If you're not sure it'll make it in time, give us a ring on (074) 913 4444 before you order and we'll tell you straight.
Or collect in store
Click and collect is the latest you can leave it. Order online, choose collection, and pick it up on Main Street in Ballybofey — there's no charge and nothing to pay when you arrive. We're taking collection orders right up to Christmas Eve.
We'll email you as soon as it's ready, and we'll usually send a WhatsApp message too. If you're ordering for collection the same day, give us a ring first so we can have it waiting for you.
And on Christmas Eve itself, the simplest thing is to come in. We're open, and there's a good chance it's sitting on the shelf. Find us here.
