WH Smith 23 sharpie pens £9.99 when you buy another item

My first bargain find!
I was in WH Smith in Coventry shopping centre and saw these, they're £9.99 with any purchase. So I picked up a drumstick sweet for 27p and as promised it worked!
Wish I got more of these now, I think they'd fetch £20 looking at eBay.

  • They've done similar offers in the summer (back to school) when you bought any stationary item you got sharpie set for £6.99 I think (but no metallic ones).
    It's nice to have a range of colours, i used them coming up to Christmas quite a bit.
  • Oooh brilliant, I use Sharpies a lot for my (attempts at) art :)
  • The offer is not available in Slough or Gerrards Cross :(

    Anyone else been able to get the offer? My Dad is looking to buy some colour Sharpies for his new airbrush.

    The worst thing about Smiths (apart from working there!) is that the offers aren't available in all stores and all stores have different pricing and the website has a differing pricing structure too (and stores don't price match the website).

    I'm not sure why, but this sharpie offer is going down like a lead balloon whereas the summer £6.99 offer where you bought any stationary was a big success. I bought some with my staff discount on top, but have never opened them!

    I got some in Fleet but they were the last set. The assistant said the offer was on before Christmas. I'm sure I would have noticed it if it had been though.
