Shoppers scramble to nab a bargain in Card Factory as cute birthday gifts are scanning as less than £1

IF you’re looking for a sweet present for a loved one’s milestone birthday, Card Factory has the answer.

Savvy shoppers have shared how the popular discount card store has slashed prices of their 18th gifts, as well as other big birthdays.

On the clearance sale shelves, there are various items on offer, from pretty patterned mugs to 18th birthday ‘keys’ – and lots more.

But the best part about the birthday mega sale is that there’s 75% off the original price. 

This means that prices start at just 49p for the key, with the mugs scanning at the till for 98p.

Speaking about the bargain buys, one shopper shared images of their local store and what was up for grabs.

They posted two pictures in the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group, which also showed a 70th birthday mug.

Alongside the snaps, the social media user said: “Not sure if in all stores, Card Factory in Penrith.”

But the other members of the group were quick to point out that they’d taken full advantage of the cheap prices in their high street.

And one person revealed the reason why as she said she was a Card Factory worker so had the inside secrets.

She revealed: “It’s all Card Factory’s if stores have the stock.

“I work there and they’re changing the designs, hence the sale.” 

Meanwhile, another person commented: “I got these along with 18 beer glasses and that was in Birmingham.”

As another chimed in: “They have had offer in the Plymouth stores too.”

Other eagle-eyed shoppers said they’d spotted the clearance in Scotland stores too, but they were going quickly.

At the same time, fellow bargain hunters were quick to spread the word and said they would rush to the Card Factory near them to see if they could bag the gifts.

One wrote: “Worth a look!”

A second tagged a friend as they typed: “We need to take a look.” 

And someone else who found out about the sale via the Facebook group said she was also hoping to get a little haul.

She said: “I love a bargain, thank you!”
