To feel like I've been had?

[tickyandtackyandjackiebackie]

Has anyone else fallen victim to the atrocities of "Scruff-a-loves" ????

My smallest begged for one for Christmas - being the incredible gullible mum I am, I obliged.
Not just any though, it had to be the one with babies.
"2,3 or 4??"

Obviously 2.

But - once dipped in water and swirled around a bit, it's meant to transform into a glossy haired toy of dreams.

See attached photo. Not really what the box or advert suggested.

£25!!!!!!!

I feel like a prize plonker.

[WhoWants2Know]

I want one. My kids don't let me play with their hair anymore.

[CathyorClaire]

Yeah. You've been had, OP.

You could've got the same experience for 50p courtesy of the toy stand at your nearest jumble sale or charity shop. Sorry

[Marriedtoapenguin]

That's what you hold up to the other toys as a warning of what could happen.

[Dieu]

Ha ha ha! Yep, ours looked similar OP.

[FizzyIce]

Dd had one last year . Took me bloody ages to wash and dry the piece of crap.
Still didn’t look good but luckily it was part of a 3 for 2 deal so got it technically for free

[lottiedelavega]

This thread I want one!!!

[22Giraffes]

This thread has been all the NYE entertainment I need

[starfishmummy]

Workffs yours is 1000 times better....

[winterystorm]

Dying at this thread! Dd asked for one but I talked her out of it! No way was I spending cash on such a piece of trash!

[Oilyoilyoilgob]

I’ve read the full thread and I want one for myself (late 30s, no kids) will husband think I’ve gone mad🤔

[Wilmalovescake]

I’ve never heard of them and they look shite and cost a fortune and I STILL now really want one.

What is this sorcery???

[ConfessionsOfTeenageDramaQueen]

Hahaha same @wilmalovescakes

[LeSquigh]

I’ve just seen this very thread pop up on Facebook as a Sun article 🤣

[PanicAndRun]

@LeSquigh did you come to check out the horde of angry,furious parents?

[LeSquigh]

Ha ha no. I read the thread first then saw the photos pop up on Facebook and came back to report 🤣

[Itsmybirthday19]

YES.

[LolaDarkdestroyer]

Ooh you've made the sun btw here's my sorry excuse anyway had a year but still loved and bathed everyday

[Bozlem80]

I bought both my nieces one of these, my sisters are now taking the piss out of them saying they are a ‘matted mess’ I spent good money on them & from the pic I was sent it just looks like it needs a good wash in the washer!

[RainbowAlicorn]

This is one of my DD's. You are supposed to blow dry and brush them.

[ilovechocolate07]

Bought one for my niece last year and haven't heard about it since the big dunk 😂

[Clangus00]

Yes! We’ve had two and they’re outrageous!

[Straycatstrut]

Sorry that's such a good idea for a scam, so simple

[dreamingofmushrooms]

DH has just asked me if I'm all right, as I have tears running down my face and can hardly speak for guffawing... it was the bin lorry and the cable ties that did it for me

I want one now

[MrsDoylesTeaBags]

Oh wow OP that looks like something Paul OGrady would be nursing back to health! Just don't feed it after midnight

[Eva2020]
