Mother's Day Facebook tat

In the lead up to Mother's Day I'm sure my Facebook will be full of these handmade "bargains"

This one is definitely overpriced and definitely tat in my opinion. £33 for a couple of frozen waffles plus cake in a jar, because who doesn't love that, and a few other items.

Ah, a lot of people are struggling financially right now and just trying to find ways to get by. I wouldn't buy any of these things but there are obviously people that do.

Surely the vagisil and get well one are piss takes. As for the others, does anyone actually buy these monstrosities? They are hideous and an absolute rip off. I'd rather have a £1 bunch of daffodils.

The vagisil and get well boxes do perpetuate the myth that all you sudocreme is the cure for all ills though, an essential in any “mum” box Grin

Mist of these just why

But the little sh**ts is vile and offensive. Who has he imagination to even dream that upConfused

MissFlite · 07/03/2021 12:26

There are plenty of people who regard the term 'little shits' as a term of endearment. Confused

Daisy829 · 07/03/2021 12:33

To be fair to the cleaning hamper it is pitched as a ‘hinch hamper’ so that’s a definite selling point.

Daisy829 · 07/03/2021 12:34

Not Mother’s Day but Easter £6. Delivery is £3.99 if anyone is interested?

See when anyone says "oh it's just people trying to make a living"
No
No
No
All I see is waste in a world where so much is wasted and thrown away and discarded already. Why buy tat and cover it with tat and give it to someone who will most likely throw it away? You want a photo frame? Buy a photo frame, you can pick them up for a few quid. Don't buy a photo frame cover it with glitter and butterflies and tat and sell it on. There really are less wasteful ways to make a living.

It might be a selling point, but I’m sure 99.9% of women would be disappointed (and insulted) to receive Poundland cleaning products as a Mother’s Day “gift”.

Imagine having to feign excitement and gratitude....“Oooh!!! Can’t wait to crack out my new cloth and antibacterial spray on the kitchen counters!!!”

Wondermule · 07/03/2021 17:09

@WizardOfAus

Exactly, can you imagine buying such a hamper for a man? It’s sexist bullshit

RatherLostPenguins · 07/03/2021 17:18

Happy Mother's Day. Have some anal relax spray and a butt plug.
