Homeware fans race to Asda for duvet set scanning for £1.60, but others admit they’ve donated theirs to the charity shop
SOME people fork out hundreds of pounds for the perfect duvet set.
So it’s no wonder homeware fans have started racing to Asda for double Seersucker set scanning for just £1.60.
Victoria took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook after spotting the epic bargain in her local store.
“Can’t go wrong for £1.60! Lovely wee duvet set!” she wrote alongside a picture of the duvet set, which comes with two pillowcases.
And while there were tonnes of people quick to rave about the deal, others had some warning words to offer.
“Don’t.. They’re polyester, slide all over the bed and they make you sweat,” one wrote.
“I was wrapped like a burrito couldn’t get unwrapped – gave it to charity lol,” another added.
“Is that how I’m sweating like mad?? I thought it was my age!” a third commented.
“I normally don’t get them if they’re slidy but I find this one okay – so far lol,” someone else said.
As another wrote: “I’ve had this material it doesn’t wash well but will be OK for people on a budget.”
The duvet set is actually 52% recycled polyester and 48% cotton.
“No way did I buy this last week at full price!” someone else commented on the post, to which another said: “I bought it more than a week ago already down to £1.60.
“I’d go back to your local store and ask if it was supposed to be marked down!”
And others admitted they’d be hearing to their local Asda hunting for the same duvet set.
“Cannot go wrong at that price,” one wrote.
“Love the colour,” another added.
“Brilliant, love bargains,” a third said.
The positive reviews also kept on coming on the George at Asda website, where the duvet set is still listed at £10 for a double.
Reasons to shop supermarket fashion
When looking for new pieces to add to your seasonal wardrobe, or update your basics, there's no need to spend hours walking around clothes shops, or scrolling online. Just pick up a dress or two alongside your fruit and veg...
They’re convenient – Chances are you visit your supermarket more times than a shopping centre or high street.
It’s affordable – For basics to more fashion-led pieces, supermarkets are leading the way for budget fashion that doesn’t look cheap.
They’re more on-trend that you think – With a customer database larger than the average high street store, shops like ASDA, Sainsbury’s and Tesco are able to cater to the markets and predict trends in a lot more areas than just food supply.
They fit well – Fits and lengths often come with a little more modesty in mind. Fabrics are often highly practical too—think plenty of 100% cotton that can be thrown into the washing machine without thought.
“Love this bedding. Gorgeous colour, amazing quality for a great price!” one wrote.
“I always get my bedding from George now.
“I was spending a fortune on other companies duvet covers, where the quality wasn’t as good as George bedding.
“This was about a quarter of the price and way better!”
As another added: “When it comes to duvets, I totally get the importance of finding one that’s soft and comfortable.
“It’s all about that cozy factor for a good night’s sleep.
“And this one is all about that!”
