Tk maxx are off my list atm until the donkey cream issue is sorted. Sad

Top TK Maxxing there lady! Wishing you and your splendid purchase much happiness together.

RJnomore1 · 09/12/2017 17:43

They are or were "accidentally" selling cream made from donkeys. Called donkey cream.

RJnomore1 · 09/12/2017 17:44

As I'm not a vegetarian I'm not boycotting op.

LizzieSiddal · 09/12/2017 17:45

Actual donkey?! Shock

RJnomore1 · 09/12/2017 17:46

Yes actual donkey.

I don't want to derail from the fantastic bargain but Asda sell all kinds of animal and I don't boycott them so I don't feel I can be morally outraged at this.

Thank you everyone! DH doesn't understand my glee!

Thanks for the explanation and like your logic RJ - as a non-veggie it would be hypocritical for me to boycott!

Blimey, that was £595 here!

thedevilinablackdress · 09/12/2017 17:53

Nice jacket. Confused tho at the person boycotting tk maxx over donkey(???) cream but not leather which presumably this is given the rrp.
(And I speak as someone who can bore at the drop of a hat and to some length about animal issues)

My TK Maxx is notoriously the shittest one in the Kingdom, so I am always so jealous of people who get bargains there - well done OP

LipstickHandbagCoffee · 09/12/2017 17:58

Love to max I can even Plough through the detritus on the floor,the queues to hoover up a bargain

pisacake · 09/12/2017 18:01

are donkeys on the list of animals too cute to harm for some reason?

Chewbecca · 09/12/2017 18:03

Apparently the donkey cream has been pulled now.

BobbinThreadbare123 · 09/12/2017 18:05

Very nice! I love the gems in TKs every so often. I got an All Saints jacket for thirty quid!

Bigfatpicnic · 09/12/2017 18:10

Bargain, lucky you, right place, right time.

I long for that kind of bargain when I go there. One day maybe, one day.

GlubGlubGlub · 09/12/2017 18:23

@mybrilliantgarden Is that website for real? There are some great bargains but looks to good to be true!

Tinselistacky · 09/12/2017 18:28

Non vegi /vegi no civilised human can agree with donkeys being bludgeoned with a hammer and skinned to make face cream.
Not even a bargain face cream. .. Not preaching but the news covered this recently and was stomach churning. Go online and sign the petition.
