£5 space hoppers

3 January

What’s the deal?

Superdrug is selling giant adult size space hoppers for £5. These normally retail for c. £15 so this is a big bouncing bonanza...

Where can I pick one up?

Just hop down (sorry) to you local Superdrug or get one via its website (thoug then there's a £3 delivery charge.

If you can find it cheaper do let everyone know.

  • My local Superdrug have giant space hoppers suitable for adults under 110kg and it also includes a pump.
    (80cm diameter)

    Was £19.99 now only £4.99 What a bargain!

    Well I was impressed!
    Also suitable for children 6 years and above!
    Comes complete with retro face and orange colour which takes you back to your childhood.

    110kg is good - that's about 17st 4lb in real money. I may even risk a bounce myself :)
    Can I help?

    I used to love those as a child. Might invest in some for the summer.

  • Just come home and managed to get 5. Only really wanted one as its my DB 40th in October and have decided to do him some sort of childhood hamper, this will be ideal as he had a yellow one as a child and fell off of it and broke his arm. Other 4 are for me OH and kids thought we might do a bit of family competative racing. Thanks very much, I new this forum would eventually provide me with the insperation.

    For thousands of people this Christmas, their must-have gift is far more vital than the latest gadget or toy – it’s blood. Please don’t let the festivities and cold weather prevent you from giving them the ultimate gift… give blood.
