How to use stock checkers to bag a deal
A stock checker could help you buy a much sought-after product as soon as it comes back into stock.
What is a stock checker?
A stock checker lets you sign up to receive alerts on products so you can see when they are available.
You may be able to setup an alert that pops up in your internet browser or by email.
This means you can be ready to buy the toy or item you are after as soon as it is available and ideally before it goes out of stock again.
How does a stock checker work?
There are websites such as , or that track supply of the most popular items.
They may not track everything but you can usually sign up to receive alerts about when a particular product is back in stock.
This includes popular items such as PS5s and Stock Informer will send desktop alerts about the JJ CoComelon doll.
Some retailers such as The Entertainer may also let you sign up for alerts once a product is back in stock.

It is still worth doing your own research and keeping an eye on social media feeds in case a stock checker isn't tracking every store.
