Others said they had rushed to Primark to find them but they were out of stock.
According to the website, you can get the houses on click and collect and they are powered by batteries so you can place them anywhere around the house.
However, the retailer states that the houses are suitable for indoor use so it's not advised to put them in your garden.

We have the talent - so why not an Irish musical theatre scene?
London has the West End. New York has Broadway. Ireland has… Well, we have a well-established and respected theatre scene, of course. Still, imagine a theatre district dedicated to musical theatre - where we welcome the odd touring production, but primarily stage our own homegrown shows featuring local actors, lighting designers, set designers et al? The so-called green wave has been discussed extensively in recent years and our bands, musicians, artists, actors and writers are undoubtedly doing great things 'out foreign'. Yet for some reason, the 'musical theatre' branch of the performing arts is often an afterthought in Ireland. There are a number of brilliant stage schools around the country that cater for kids and young adults, and which often set them up for stellar careers in the industry. Yet when they get to a certain age, they're essentially forced to leave Ireland to train in the UK. Listen: Sarah O'Connor talks to Marty In The Morning Is it because musicals are often perceived by some as the frivolous little sibling to 'serious' or straight theatre? I've interviewed several of our most successful musical theatre stars in recent years. One of them, the brilliant Sarah O'Connor, played Glinda in a recent touring production of Wicked, spoke about the necessity of leaving Dublin after her Leaving Cert to pursue her dream at a Performing Arts school in Romford, Essex - a "scary" proposition to leave home so young. Another, Kildare native Sharon Sexton - who originated the role of Sloane in the acclaimed Meat Loaf musical Bat Out of Hell and has forged an incredible career for herself - said that after outgrowing Naas Musical Society as a kid, there was no other option but to leave for London. "There were no musical theatre courses in Ireland when it came to me leaving school, but there was a drama course in DIT," she said of the concession that she made at the time. "So I kind of persuaded my folks to let me study there, because you got a qualification as a teacher. I did that for three years, and after that, just kind of tried to find work in Ireland - if there was any musical going, I was in there. But y'know yourself, there's no real musical theatre industry, as such, in Ireland. You've got the pantos at Christmas - which I did, or the odd musical in the National Concert Hall - which I did. And I, Keano, which was billed as 'Ireland's Biggest Musical' - and which I did." We have the talent in abundance - and we should be doing everything to foster this and build upon it, rather than exporting our talent to the UK like teenage footballers being snapped up by Premier League clubs. It's not just musical theatre, either; performing arts are lacking in funding and framework on a wider scale to train and support budding artists who want to pursue it as a career at home. Dublin ballet dancer Stephen Murray, who recently wowed audiences in Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake, revealed the circuitous route he was forced to take to pursue his dream in ballet - from the Westside Stage School in Lucan as a kid, to the College of Dance in Monkstown, and finally to London's Central School of Ballet when he was just 16. It has undoubtedly worked out well for him - but wouldn't it have been better for him to train at an elite level in his hometown? The main problem, of course, is that there is simply not enough work in Ireland to sustain everyone who wants to work in musical theatre full-time. There aren't enough homegrown shows, outside of panto season and the odd outlier like I, Keano, to keep performers in employment for twelve months of the year. While it's unrealistic to imagine that we could ever rival the West End or Broadway, it's also something that will never change if we're not prepared to fund the sector and invest in building an Irish homegrown musical theatre scene. It would be nice to see more Irish-made productions, to start with. Why not? Listen: The Ray D'Arcy Show talks to the cast of Little Shop Of Horrors On that note, the production o f Little Shop of Horrors currently running at the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre is a huge step in the right direction. Since opening its doors in 2010, the theatre in the heart of Dublin's docklands has hosted some of the biggest musical productions of all time, from Wicked to Hamilton and The Lion King to The Book of Mormon. Little Shop of Horrors, however, is an absolutely stellar show; from the set design, to the puppetry and the excellent performances across the board, there is no sense of cutting corners. Taking on Howard Ashman and Alan Menken's camp classic is no mean feat, but this show emphatically proves that it can be done to a high standard. It also proves that we have the talent in abundance - and we should be doing everything to foster this and build upon it, rather than exporting our talent to the UK like teenage footballers being snapped up by Premier League clubs. Most people would agree that theatre - and particularly independent Irish theatre - could do with a lot more funding. Actor Aaron Monaghan, most recently seen in The Cave at Dublin's Abbey Theatre, spoke passionately about how difficult it has become to get funding for his own independent company, the Cavan-based Livin' Dred, which has done great work including a recent production of Playboy of the Western World, which he directed. "I think everything comes back to the crash and the decisions that were made about the cuts; everything," he said when I spoke to him earlier this year. "I say this in a very well-meaning way - because I think the decisions that were made were well-intentioned - but there was too much being spent on infrastructure, on the administration side of things. And they could have been better streamlined, but what they ended up doing was cutting companies. So as well as cutting the architecture and the infrastructure out of the industry, we lost a huge amount of administrative and producing experience. And we also cut a huge amount of companies - which meant a lot of artists were gone, a lot of companies gone, a lot of audiences gone. There had been huge diversity of work: you had Barabbas who were doing clown stuff, Performance Corporation were doing their stuff, Second Age were providing things for schools. So if suddenly they're all gone overnight, it's huge. And I don't think we've recovered from that." If the 'green wave' is really more than just a soundbite for American media around Oscars season, it needs to encompass every aspect of Irish arts - and musical theatre shouldn't be left behind.

New-season styles are hitting the high st & these are the pieces our fashion editors are buying before they sell out
Check out this brilliant dupe of the Dragon Diffusion woven bag that'll save you over £400. FRESH START New-season styles are hitting the high st & these are the pieces our fashion editors are buying before they sell out THE UK is gearing up for another heatwave, but our favourite high-street brands are already thinking ahead. So although we won't be folding away our summer staples just yet, sale season is drawing to a close, and in its place the high street is beginning to drop new-season collections already. There's a fresh wave of transitional pieces arriving in-store and online this week and our fashion editors have been keeping a close eye to curate an edit of their favourite pieces. And it's safe to say we're impressed. Think lightweight knits ideal for layering, along with great woven bag dupes and even footwear is experiencing a seasonal refresh as new styles hit the shelves. So whether you're looking for a wardrobe refresh ahead of autumn or just want to bag the best pieces before they sell out, now is the perfect time to start browsing, as these top picks won't hang around for long. Clemmie Fieldsend, 35, Fashion Editor 3 Clemmie's top new-season buys Credit: Fabulous Jumper, £36, River Island - BUY NOW Skirt, £199, Mint Velvet - BUY NOW Dress, £36, Marks & Spencer - BUY NOW Bag, £14, Primark - BROWSE HERE Shoes, £49.99, Zara - BUY NOW As much as I hate to wish summer away, seeing new transitional pieces for autumn makes me happy. I stopped in my tracks, well, mid-scroll, when I saw this River Island jumper on my screen. The tie neck and lightweight knit makes it look so premium, as does this Primark bag, which is a double for designer brand Dragon Diffusions' £440 style - what a saving at just £14! A splurge would be this suede Mint Velvet skirt. Suede isn't going anywhere for autumn and I can wear this midi style now, in the winter and for years to come, so I'll definitely get my money's worth. Fashion lovers rush to M&S to snap up perfect pumps that are 'so pretty' for summer - and they come in various colours to match your vibe I've surprised myself with how much I like these suede tie ballerinas from Zara, not something I'd ever consider going for but the neutral, subtle colour and trainer laces are calling me - and I love them. Finally, I keep seeing Bambi print pop up here, there and everywhere, so I'll be snapping up this T-shirt shaped dress from M&S to get ahead of the trend before it kicks off - and before the dress sells out. Abby McHale, 31, Deputy Fashion Editor 3 Abby's top new-season buys Credit: Fabulous Blazer, £65, Next - BUY NOW Bag, £99.99, Mango - BUY NOW Trousers, £99, Boden - BUY NOW Cardigan, £20, Tu Clothing - BUY NOW Trainers, £32.99, H&M - BUY NOW The high street is starting to drip feed its new-season stock, meaning now is the perfect time to get ahead of the game and purchase pieces that are to be a sure fire hit, before they sell out. I'm loving all the shades of brown that are coming through for the new season, and this blazer from Next is already on lots of people's radar. Brown suede blazers were all the rage last season and this dark chocolate shade is a new update. Argyle is a pattern trickling through to the high street from the catwalks, and this one is a steal at just £20 from Tu Clothing at Sainsbury's. And if you're in the market for a pair of on-trend trainers but you don't want to spend hundreds of pounds, then this pair from H&M is just £32.99! Emily Regan, 25, Fashion Assistant 3 Emily's top new-season buys Credit: Fabulous Jacket, £35, George at ASDA - BUY NOW Jeans, £35.99, Zara - BUY NOW Jumper, £125, House of Sunny - BUY NOW Bag, £150, Next - BUY NOW Trainers, £120, New Balance - BUY NOW As much as I love my summer wardrobe, I'm an autumn girl at heart - so I was thrilled to see new-season styles are hitting the high street already. I've learned the hard way that the best pieces often drop early and then sell out quickly - that was the case with this gorgeous suede bag from Next, so I'm really pleased that it's relaunched this year. The same goes for George at ASDA's viral leopard-print puffer coat - this year's is a different shape but in the same Ganni-inspired print - and it's already sitting in my wardrobe for when it starts to get chillier outside. I've also got my eye on the latest New Balance 204L shoes - they're a great dupe for the Miu Miu collab at a fraction of a cost. They're tipped to be the next It-girl trainers, but they're selling fast so keep an eye out for restocks and be sure to set a reminder!

How to wear trousers and recreate the elegant summer look Spanish women love for keeping them cool in the 40C heat
Take a look at the supermarket pair that are flying off the shelves HEATWAVE HERO How to wear trousers and recreate the elegant summer look Spanish women love for keeping them cool in the 40C heat LETS face it, us Brits are known for getting hot and bothered in the heat, be that abroad or in the UK. And when it comes to dressing we can often find ourselves a little stuck. I find looking towards countries who have a lot more sunshine helps. And of course the Spaniards are classed as one of the chicest and stylish nationalities around. So why not take some inspiration from what their city-dwellers wear during the hottest months? It may seem backwards but sometimes covering up can actually make you cooler. And this certainly applies with trousers. A pair of wide leg trousers in thin, cooling fabrics such as linen and cotton, will keep the heat off, plus leave you looking put together and extra stylish. And whilst these kinds of trousers come in lots of different colours, it is a well known fact that lighter colours repel the light - making beige a great neutral option that will go with everything in your wardrobe. Here, Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale gives you the low down on the seven best pairs of beige trousers - perfect for summer. 7 Trousers, £45, M&S Credit: M&S, £45 - BUY NOW It's no secret that linen is a great fabric for summer, but finding the right pair can be tricky. M&S has some great options that you can wear everyday, like this pair for £45. I'm a petite mum & found the dream trouser co-ord for my short gals, it's only £15 Coming in four different leg sizes, it also has pockets and a zip fastening to give them more structure, but an elasticated back to give extra stretch and keep the comfort factor. 7 Trousers, £29.99, Zara Credit: This pair from Zara is all about the comfort factor. With a full elastic waist and super light flowy fabric, these are the perfect pair for a warm summer day. With crinkle material it also means you don't have to worry about ironing, so if you're packing them to head away they're fuss free. 7 Trousers, £18, Tu at Sainsbury's Credit: Tu at Sainsbury's, £18 - BUY NOW For just £18 this pair from Tu at Sainsbury's is a bargain. Floaty fabric, elasticated waist and the wide leg style makes these comfortable, stylish and flattering. Coming in sizes 8-24, this also comes with a matching beige top if you want to wear as a co-ord. 7 Trousers, £24, Primark Credit: These poplin style trousers are part of Primark's The Edit range, a more premium collection but still with a great price tag. Made from cotton-rich fabric that will still keep you cool, the sturdiness of the fabric means that these are also great to wear day to day and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. With pleats down the front to give a structured feel, as well as pockets for an extra detail. 7 Trousers, £26, Next Credit: Next, £26 - BUY NOW Next has some great floaty trouser options for summer, like this pair for just £26. With a tie waist, meaning you can give yourself as much shape as you like, the crinkle fabric also means no ironing needed. With pockets to go with, this pair is the perfect, easy throw on thing you need to have in your wardrobe. 7 Trousers, £24.99, H&M Credit: H&M, £24.99 - BUY NOW A pair that will keep you cool in the summer but also a great transitional trouser as we head into autumn, H&M has ticked the box. With seam detailing, back and front pockets as well as a double tie belt - this pair has a lot going on for all the right reasons. Wear with everything from vests and t-shirts to shirts and blouses. 7 Trousers, £49.99, Mango Credit: Mango, £49.99 - BUY NOW You may not expect this pair from Mango to be lightweight and breathable, but made from cotton, it certainly is. Buttons, zips, pockets and belt loops make this a high spec pair of trousers and whilst for £49.99 may be one of the pricier pairs in the lineup it's certainly worth it. As this is a pair you will certainly be able to wear all year round.
