    are these priced like this on the shelf?
    The labels aren't always put out, staff sometimes don't put them out either because they are behind putting the labels out or because they want them for theirselves lol I got mine and the label said £19.

    Well, went to T's with my sis today she overheard staff talking about ridiculously cheap items in the beauty aisle. We went to check it out (as you do!) & there was a lot of staff around checking prices of Babyliss & Philips shavers. By the time we got there the shelves were empty! So we decided to travel to next store. We couldn't see them at first but down a separate isle there was a stack of items not reduced on SEL yet so we did a price check on a few & bingo all had been reduced to silly prices. I've done a list of a few items we checked. We only bought one of each so plenty were left on the shelf.

    LUMI CLEAR £15
    LUMIE ARABICA SAD LAMP £12
    BABYLISS PRO 215 STRAIGHTENERS £1.84
    RIO NECK TONER £3.06
    SLENDERTONE MAN OR WOMAN £7.14
    PHILIPS MULTISTYLER £3.06
    PHILIPS SHAVER HS8420 £10.14
    BABYLISS HAIRDRYER 2.86

    Also managed to get HP multimedia speakers for £3. There were two more left on shelf.

    Really pleased as wanted some adult xmas presents after the Barbies etc.

    There were other items that I didn't buy more shavers straighteners Hair trimmers etc.
    Good luck if you manage to get to them before the staff!

    A member of staff in front of me in the queue today had a Babyliss make-up mirror it went through as £6, she may have had staff discount, but they are £30 online so even if £7 its a bargain. I had a good look, but couldn't find them so guess the staff had nabbed them, but worth keeping an eye out

    Thanks, that's a great idea but I bought them from Boots and Sainsburys! I'm not sure whether the bar codes would be the same but for the sake of three quid its worth a try!

    I sent DH to look for the hairdryers yesterday (for DSD) but they weren't marked down and he's too shy to check the price then put it back (I'm working on that!) but I will try again myself later :)

    And good luck to you girl, I doubt there's one of us here that wouldn't do the same so thanks for posting it :)

    3 on the shelf at the Bro*klands store but scanning full price. They have about 4 different types of Babyliss straighteners but I didn't scan any as we don't need any. Now kicking myself though as I've found the receipt for mine and I did buy them from Tesco ('twas a long shopping day that day looking for out-of-season shorts for DSD and I could have sworn I bought them at Sainsburys!) so if the reduced pair are the ones I bought I could take them back :)

    Can anyone that has bought the straighteners tell me if it's the pair that are a lilacy/silvery colour, originally priced at £39ish, please?)
