Parents are rushing to Home Bargains desperate to nab 69p school essential – and you’ll need to ‘stock up’ while you can

SUMMER may be on the horizon but you can never have too many school supplies on hand.

Home Bargains shoppers have shared their excitement over a budget buy that is perfect for your little one.

In a post on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group, one woman shared the impressive deal she came across.

The school supply sale offered significant savings on a lunchtime essential.

A price tag showed that school lunch boxes had been reduced to just 69p each.

The mum shared a photo of the deal on the shelf, as well as the inside of the lunch box she picked up.

It was sectioned off into three parts, making it ideal for your child's snacks.

There was also room for a sandwich as well as a plastic utensil attached inside.

The bargain hunter heaped on the praise for the impressive Home Bargains deal.

“Going to stock pile these for 69p as my children forever lose these in school,” she said.

She revealed that she also nabbed a metal water bottle for the same price.

According to the mum, the lunch boxes appeared to be “very sturdy”.

Other parents shared their enthusiasm over the bargain in the comments section.

One mum said the lunch box “would be perfect for a school trip my daughter has soon”.

“These look good,” wrote another impressed commenter.

“Guess I am taking a trip,” said a third Home Bargains shopper.

Another parent pointed out that the lunch boxes would come in handy during the summer holidays too.
