Farmfoods shoppers go wild for a 12-in-1 £40 steam mop that’s scanning at just £4.99 at the till
FARMFOODS shoppers are scrambling to get to their nearest store, desperate to check out a steam mop that’s been massively reduced.
So if your home could do with a good clean but you can’t afford to splash out on an expensive mop, you’ve come to the right place.
One savvy shopper, Arwen Walters, was left thrilled when shopping in her local Farmfoods, when she spotted a 12-in-1 steam mop that had been reduced from £40 down to just £4.99 – yes, you heard that correctly.
Arwen took to social media to show off her purchase, posting in Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, a private group with a staggering 2.3 million members.
The bargain hunter advised shoppers: “RUN DON’T WALK TO FARMFOODS!!! £4.99 12-in-1 steam mop!!
“£40+ online so this is definitely a bargain!
“They also had a smaller handheld one for the same price.
“This also converts to handheld. Popped in just for a cheeky look and walked out with a steam mop, classic!”
The Daewoo 12-in-1 upright steam mop cleaner is perfect for using in and around the home.
With 1300w of power, this steam cleaner is ready to use in 30 seconds and can produce up to 12 minutes of continuous steam, and kills up to 99.9 percent of bacteria.
In its upright form the mop has an easy-to-use swivel head with an extendable handle, and is great on carpets and hard floors.
The steam cleaner can also be used in a variety of other modes, and is great for scrubbing, cleaning ceramics and tiles, steaming and freshening garments, clearing limescale and general grime, and cleaning glass, and windows.
The mop is available to buy from a variety of stores online, with prices starting at £40.
Arwen later confirmed that she found the mop in a Farmfoods store in Blackpool and for £4.99, it’s no wonder that she was left beaming with her £35.01 saving.
At the time of writing, Arwen had shared her post just 14 hours prior, but it had clearly impressed many, as it had quickly amassed 271 likes and 359 comments.
One person said: “Need to look!”
Another added: “Running.”
A third commented: “What a bargain.”
Meanwhile, many Facebook users tagged their friends and loved ones, alerting them to the cut-price buy.
One shopper tagged a loved one and asked: “Get me one please.”
Another simply mentioned a family member and stated: “Go tomorrow.”
Whilst someone else tagged a loved one and questioned: “Can we nip in tomorrow????”
However, others were eager to note that such mops shouldn’t be used on laminate flooring.
One user penned: “I had one of these and [it] ruined my flooring so just be careful if you have laminate flooring.”
A second chimed in: “These are no good for laminate; the laminate will lift, the steam is too much for laminate.”
Whilst another chimed in: “Remember steam mops are not good for laminate floors.”
According to Factory Direct Flooring, laminate flooring is sensitive to heat and moisture, so the humidity from your steam mop can cause harm.
It could eventually cause your floor to warp, loosen or peel, therefore, even if your steam mop says it will work on laminate floors, it’s best to stick to avoid steam altogether.
