Mum’s warning after she discovers cute Home Bargains stocking filler contains something very dangerous
A MUM has warned other parents after discovering something sinister in one of her daughter’s stocking filler gifts.
Taking to the Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, the mum shared a snap of the Bath Buddies fizzer that had purchased from the store.
The bath product had promised to contain a ‘surprise squishy toy inside’ but instead the mum discovered something rather more dangerous.
Rather than a cute critter, when the mum placed the bath bomb in water she discovere a sharp nail in the centre, sharing a snap of the offending item online.
Captioning the snap, she wrote: “WARNING! We brought my daughter this bath fizzer from Home Bargains for christmas.
“When she dissolved it this evening there was the expected toy but also a very sharp little NAIL!
“Thankfully she was not in the bath but please do not let your children use this product!
“Please share to anyone who you think may have purchased what we thought was a cute stocking filler.”
Fellow group members were horrified by her discovery, sharing their outrage in the comments.
One wrote: “OMG…that’s awful…hope you’re gonna complain to Home Bargains!!”
“My daughter had one of those!” added another, while a third wrote, “Trading standards should be told.”
Meanwhile the mum was quick to reassure concerned followers that she had reported the incident.
She added: “Luckily she wanted us all to watch it reveal the suprise so she wasn’t in the bath with it.
“I have emailed them because they deffinately need to recall it.”
