Home Bargains shopper issues warning to anyone who buys 'cute' £1.49 item

The seasonal mug is 'the only way to drink your pumpkin spiced lattes' - but fellow Home Bargains fans shared a crucial warning

Home Bargains shoppers say the store is selling the "prettiest" glass mug for autumn. However, customers need to be aware of one thing if they plan on buying the 'cute' item.

Home Bargains shared on its Instagram a picture of its new Lifestyle Edit Harvest Latte Glass, which is adorned with pumpkins and brown leaves. The picture quickly gained the attention of the discount store's fans, who left dozens of positive comments.

However, one shopper warned that customers need to know something before racing to pick one up. Home Bargains describes the glass as "a beautifully designed glass perfect for enjoying your favourite seasonal lattes."

It added: "With its cosy design, this glass adds a touch of autumn to every sip. Ideal for warming up on crisp fall days." However, shoppers need to be aware that this mug is not suitable for dishwashers, meaning it needs to be hand washed.

While this might be fine for some, those who prefer to put everything in the dishwasher may want to think twice about buying this. One Instagram user commented on the Home Bargains picture: "Bought two last week, lovely. Hand wash only ladies!"

The cute designs are part of the problem for dishwasher users, as the high temperatures and harsh detergents that the appliance uses can damage the paint, causing it to fade or chip. Despite that, it still has glowing reviews, and people are keen to buy one.

Elsewhere at Home Bargains, the store has updated its shelves with an incredible deal that's sure to impress beauty enthusiasts. As part of its latest range of skincare products for autumn, the budget retailer is stocking a 'luxury' face mask, which usually costs up to £50, for only a few quid.

Some shoppers will be able to enjoy a brand new self-serve coffee machine that has been added to certain branches. The update means visitors could grab themselves a £2 cup of coffee or hot chocolate while they browse the aisles.

Home Bargains is also introducing new gift cards as shoppers say 'what a time to be alive'. Fans of the budget store will be able to treat themselves or someone else to a shopping trip with the new cards that are in stock from this week.
