    Not sure if this is a glitch but these cushions do not show under the preview sale link but I noticed when browsing all the cushions they had 50% preview symbol.

    Might be because one of the cushion colours was reduced, anyway I have just managed to order 4 of one the other colours and the 50% discount comes off making them £4.75 each and they have very good reviews. :money:

    Exactly the same as the one I have ordered but not collected yet for £6 :eek:

    https://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/summer-duvet-250-asda-instore-bournemouth-3046333

    I got someone I know who works at that store to check, they were all gone sadly, it's near student halls so not surprising really...

    I'm not sure whether to collect the one I have ordered now out of principle. :rotfl:

    Still £6 online. :mad:

    Sadly not special at all :rotfl: Just basic ones but whenever I have seen them in sale before they only ever have the small or huge sizes. :eek: Mr TS is just normal size. :D

    I had to pay full price in Ts the other month as his were really beyond it and he would never think to go buy more. :o Just carries on wearing them with holes in :sighs: So embarrassing if he had an accident. :eek:
