A warning not to buy on this produce on a Tele Sales Channel.
« on: August 19, 2014, 23:36:21 PM »
Q.V.C. are  advertising a Buddha Shaped Flameless Candle.  Basically it is made of wax and has two batteries inside it and a timer switch to set to to stay on for 4 or 8 hours.  It sold out and is now on a wish list to order it.  The price is  £27.00 plus £4.95 postage. Made by a company called Bella Notte.
They have exactly the same produce in Home Bargains for £7.99.   I was in  today and the girl told me that they had sold out yesterday and re-stocked today.
It just shows how much profit these Tele Sales Companies are making.

Home Bargains Jacqui ? Surely not, your street cred has definitely gone right out of the window now !!     ;) 8) A branch of this company has just, within the last few days, opened about 1 mile from where we live, & Lorraine & I popped in , ( as one does ), just to be nosey, you know, we were surprised at the greatly reduced prices on branded goods, & shall definitely be going again. We saw those lights by the way, looked quite nice, if you like tat !!   :angel: :  :) :o

I would say my street credit goes up by using this great shop.  I am a savvy shopper and love a bargain and I can get plenty in Home Bargains.   A really good place to shop for great reductions on lots of branded goods and of course,  Home Bargains is a Liverpool company.

They make excellent presents for people you don't like but feel obliged to give gifts {e.g. boss, in-laws}.

This post is not about the produce but about the profit...
