MANY new parents will know that buying baby supplies isn’t always cheap.
However, one shopper shared how they spotted that a Tommee Tippee kit has landed in Home Bargains for a third of the price.
It includes bowls, a spoon, a bib and a weaning cup[/caption]
The bargain hunter posted a photo of their First Tastes weaning starter kit, which was priced at just £5.99.
On the Home Bargain sign it said that the pack is usually priced at £15.99, meaning you save £9.01.
Included in the kit is a Roll ‘n’ Go bib comes with a crumb catcher.
It also has a number of Easiscoop feeding bowls, which stack inside each other to save on space.
They are said to be safe to use in the microwave, and BPA free – as well as being dishwasher safe.
There are also a number of ergonomically shaped spoons which are “easy to hold, without getting your fingers messy.”
The Tommee Tippee website says: “Our Softee weaning spoon is the perfect choice for their first adventures into solid food.
“The smooth, flexible tip is specially designed for tiny mouths – it tips food gently onto their mouth and is super soft on tender gums. The extra-long handle makes scooping and feeding easy.”
Meanwhile, the kit also comes with a weaning sippy cup to help develop tipping and sipping skills whilst preventing spills.
The bargain was posted on the Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, and numerous people seemed keen to snap it up.
One person wrote: “I want one.”
Another said: “need to grab this, that’s a bargain.”
A third commented: “Handy for little man.”
We previously shared how a mum spotted the Tommee Tippee anti-colic set, which is normally on sale for £39, being sold for just £9.75 in the Tesco clearance.
She only realised, however, that the price of the set had been slashed when she checked her receipt at home.

The lucky customer said the set is “still full price” on the Tesco website, so she wasn’t sure if the deal was available everywhere.
Writing on Facebook, she said: “Tommee Tippee anti-colic set from £39 down to £9.75 on clearance in Tesco, Mold.
“Still full price on their website. Comes with 4 bottles, 1 brush, 1 dummy, and 2 replacement heads. Not sure if this is nation wide, or not.”
The set is designed to ease colic, gas and reflux and includes nine helpful items.
It includes 2 150ml bottles, 2 260ml botts, 2x medium flow teats, 2 night time soothers and 1 bottle and teat brush.
What is baby led weaning?
Starting your baby on food can be a daunting, scary process.
And while mums have depended for years on purees and soft, easy to eat foods for their babies, there’s another approach that often causes controversy.
Namely baby led weaning (BLW).
Instead of spoon-feeding your baby pureed or mashed foods, BLW means offering them “only finger foods and letting them feed themselves from the start”, the NHS explained.
“You can offer a range of small, finger-sized pieces of food,” they added.
“Some parents prefer baby-led weaning to spoon feeding, while others combine a bit of both.
“There’s no right or wrong way – the most important thing is that your baby eats a wide variety of food and gets all the nutrients they need.”
