    Cheap and best do not go hand in hand.

  • If you have a Somerfield near you check them out. Our local one is selling a Fridgidaire one for £2.50.

    This isnt always that case, we purchased a £40 russell hobbs 4 slice toaster .. the buttons fell off ..it toasted the bread uneven .. and just after 12 months .. it decided to die ..lol ... anyways .. we decided to try the cheapest toaster we could find .. £5 silver and black 4 slice toaster from Asda the make it "onn" .. they also had matching kettles .. we've had it a while now .. and so far .. no problems.

    Is there a discount code or does the £15 get deducted automatically?

    Not necessarily.

    Try getting a decent toaster that's been reduced in sales/special offers.. Argos seem to have offers on all the time so may be worth a look.

    Also, if you want a really cheap one, then i can actually recommend the tesco value toaster that costs about a fiver.. it did us ok, but left it at the old place as our new house had a toaster here already, which incidently is a tefal one that probably cost a lot more, but toasts unevenly amongst other things.
