Yesterday, eagle-eyed Home Bargains shoppers spotted that the store had begun stocking an expensive, designer beauty product for only £11.99. The item was a moisturiser by Victoria Beckham, which usually retails for £90.
Customers had two options: a 30ml size, which usually costs £90 but was just £11.99 in Home Bargains. And a 50ml bottle, which retails at £135, but the store was offering it for only £15.99.
The moisturiser is described as "lightweight" and "hydrating". It is designed to "minimise" the appearance of pores and imperfections whilst improving your skin's radiance.
Many people were impressed by the huge savings, and some took to social media to spread the news. On the popular Facebook page Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, one shopper named Marie posted a screenshot of the Victoria Beckham by Augustinus Bader Original Cell Rejuvenating Priming Moisturiser on the Home Bargains website.
She wrote: "Saw this on Home Bargains. I ordered it as it seemed to go to miss, but I never tried it. The cheapest I found it was £45.00 on sale." Online, several retailers are selling the cream for either £90, £60, or £45.
But for anyone lucky enough to grab themselves one from Home Bargains when it was in stock, would have made quite an impressive saving. Unsurprisingly, the cream has now sold out on Home Bargains' website after high demand on Tuesday (Nov 5) saw a lot of people scrambling to buy it at a discount price.
Many people replied to Marie's post to express their dismay at being too late to the deal. Samantha commented: "All gone now." Firoza added: "Oh no, it’s sold out."
Meanwhile, Claire, who has seemingly used the brand before, said: "Omg Augustinus Bader Skincare is amazing." Marie herself later added: "Oh no it was on star buys must of sold out that fast I doubt it's in-store be so hard to get."
Anyone hoping to still get their hands on the cream at a reduced price should try visiting their nearest Home Bargains to check if it is in stock there. Otherwise, you can sign up for Home Bargains' stock alert service, which will email you as soon as the product is back in stock online.
