London families can get free Playmobil this Christmas

Christmas wish lists keep growing, but family budgets are not. Playmobil is launching a buy one get one free cashback offer this Christmas, giving shoppers the chance to pick up two qualifying sets while getting the lower-priced product free.

Running from 1 October until 31 December 2026, including the Black Friday shopping period, the offer is designed to help families bring home more toys for Christmas, whether that’s for a sibling or to boost the little one’s stocking.

With qualifying products ranging from £8 to £179.99, the offer gives shoppers a meaningful festive saving across some of Playmobil’s most popular worlds, including Fire, Police, Space, Zoo and Knights. For example, shoppers buying the new Large Lion Knights Castle at £139.99 could also pick up the Fire Station, usually £94.99, for free through cashback, subject to the promotion terms and conditions.

This could mean pairing a Fire Station and Fire Rescue Truck, for a child planning their next emergency mission, a Mars Research Rocket and ESA Space Glider for a budding astronaut, or a Wilderness Climbing Park and Animals and Friends Balloon Ride for animal-loving adventurers, with the cheaper qualifying product effectively free through cashback.

The offer is available at participating retailers including Argos, Smyths online, Hamleys in London and Scotland, and selected independent toy retailers. It gives families the chance to shop for Christmas gifts at much-loved toy destinations while making their budget go further.

To take part, shoppers simply buy two qualifying products, keep their itemised receipt and submit a cashback claim at www.playmobilpromo.com

The offer comes as new research from Playmobil reveals that more than eight in ten parents (86%) say at least one toy or activity their child once enjoyed has been partly replaced by screen time, including imaginative play. By helping families put more Playmobil under the tree, the promotion aims to create more opportunities for children to build worlds, create stories and play imaginatively long after Christmas Day.
