Shoppers racing to Primark where they can pick up last-minute gifts for kids for as little as £2, including comfy PJs
STILL need to do your Christmas shopping? Then best plan a visit to the nearest Primark where you can bag last-minute gifts on the cheap.
For many households the festive season is the most expensive time of the year, with the average family spending an eye-watering £1,800 around Christmas.
Luckily, to help cash-strapped families slash the ever-rising costs, the high-street retailer Primark has come to rescue, offering bargain deals for cute gift ideas.
According to one super fan of the store, TikTok user @enjoy.shoppinginuk, you can snap up adorable – and cosy – pressies for as little as £2.
For instance, some of the budget-friendly buys the delighted customer stumbled upon in the shop included a set of comfy and extra soft pyjamas with a festive print.
These, the shopper shared in the video, had been slashed from £4.50 to a mere £2, making it the perfect gift for someone you love – or to keep yourself warm this winter.
The same deal can also be snapped up for a similar PJs in a dark blue and red print with a festive reindeer on top – and these are a fabulous pressie for the little ones in the family.
Meanwhile, if you venture a little further inside the shop, you can also find a soft and a cosy blanket – a must if someone you know is a Pokemon fan.
This bargain buy, the Primark fanatic revealed, is now scanning for a fiver at the tills after going for £7.
There is also another Pokemon-inspired throw selling for £10 – a comfy blanket that’s 120cm x 150cm in size.
Is your tot obsessed with all this Paw Patrol? The popular high-street retailer also has something in store for them, a cuddly throw with the signature pastel blue design that’s now on sale for just £5.
According to the customer, from Scotland, these bargain deals are available in every Primark store – although someone from Belfast said they hadn’t had any luck spotting the cheap buys.
Dozens raced to comments to tag their friends and family to inform them about the cut-price goodies.
One TikTok user said: ”Bedford store have loads reduced.”
Unfortunately for one shopper, they had seed the video a little too late, writing: ”I paid full price for mine.”
”Wow super,” someone else couldn’t believe the bargain offers.
”Fuming, I spent £15 each on 4 of us on Primark pjs, not including my 3 year old now they on sale,” a mum was furious.
But whilst shopping in the store, be careful of what’s landing in your basket – as fashionistas were left gobsmacked by the price of one maxi dress.
According to fashion lovers, the high-street retailer was selling their garment for more than posh SKIMS by Kim Kardashian.
One customer, Mel, from Manchester, was so stunned by the price tag, she ”nearly fell on the floor” and took to TikTok to inform others.
After strolling around the local store, the 24-year-old style fanatic stumbled across a sleeveless maxi dress in the Rita Ora x Primark range.
The wardrobe staple featured a crew neck and came in black – much like the figure-hugging frocks available at SKIMS for around £80.
But after inspecting the design, Mel was gobsmacked to find out that the frock was selling for an astronomical £100.
”Primark? £100 in Primark? Never thought I’d see the day.
”Nearly fell on the floor!! I walked past it and thought Oh, it’s nice..does that say only £10?! WAIT £100?!’ ” she went on in the comments.
”Primark x Rita Ora, count your days.”
