Graham & Brown Framed Hearts Wall Corsage £17.50

Options
Just spotted this on the Debenhams Website 90% off £17.50 instead of £175.00, might be of interest to someone. Theres probably a discount code floating around somewhere aswell.

  • Before anyone rushes to buy this at the bargain price, it is sold on the Graham and Brown website for the correct price of £17.50.

    Typical Debenhams sales strategy of over estimating the real retail value.

  • Thanks Savvybunny, Its not my sort of thing but never thought to look on the Graham and Brown Website. Sorry if anyone bought this thinking they were getting a bargain!!!!
  • I am shocked that Debenhams have the cheek to have charged/marked this up to £175.00.

    £175?! What the heck?! I have made several of these as gifts for friends using either a heart or butterfly (about £10 but I had these already anyway) and a similar frame is £3 in B&M. It takes about 5 minutes and is ridiculously easy. I wouldn't pay £17.50 never mind £175!

    I was just about to say the same thing!!

    I too have made a few of these using a heart punch I already had a cheap frame I found in B&Q. I even got some wallpaper samples at B&Q at the same time to punch my hearts out off.

    It would make a nice gift though and thanks OP for posting. I don't mean to put down your post - just trying to save a few more pounds for MSE's
