M&P Starlight Swing £34.99!!!

I have come across a deal for the Mamas & Papas starlight swing for £35, normal price £100 in Argos.

You need to ring the customer service number 08456403030 and reserve cat number 376/3052. Then go in and pay!! It tells you its a bouncer but if you pay through the self service tills the photo is of the swing. I think its last years colourway maybe but its nice and nuetral and looks great.

You can't reserve it online only over the phone but it confirms that the current price is £34.99 when you reserve it. This is what is looks like:

    I just got back from collecting the swing from my local Argos and it was indeed £34.99 and is lovely! I also used my Nectar points towards it and got a further £22.50 off. I love a bargain :)

    Thank you so much, I have reserved one and asked a friend to pick it up as none were local (well a bus ride away) to me, and have told her to reject if it is only a normal bouncer !!
    Not many in the greater london area but hopefully this is one of the swings !!
    Will be a very happy mum to be once my friend has got it safely in her mitts !!:j

    I don't see why not just quote the item number. It may be best to check whether your local branch has stock beforehand to save yourself a wasted journey if not available.

    Still can't believe I have got such a bargain. Just opened it and it is identical to the online one advertised for £97.89!!!
