Parents are racing to Home Bargains stores for a 'great' £100 item that's been reduced to £25
Home Bargains has impressed parents by reducing a popular £99.99 item to just £24.99. The discount retailer has knocked £75 off the Munchkin Spring 2-in-1 Bouncer and Rocker that parents say they "need" for young children.
Shoppers will need to be quick to find the "bargain" that's gone viral on social media. Facebook page Baby Deals UK spotted the offer in stores back in April, and the product is currently out of stock on Home Bargains' website until stocks are replenished. However, a shopper recently spotted the deal in her local store, so shoppers could try their luck at their nearest branch.

Sharing the recommendation for parents on TikTok, @emily_campbellx posted a video highlighting the deal earlier this week. She wrote: "Parents run to Home Bargains." Her caption added: "Such a bargain!! If my little one was younger this would've gone straight into my trolley."

The product description for the rocker says: "Keep your little one calm and comfy with the Munchkin Spring 2-in-1 Bouncer & Rocker. Designed to soothe, this versatile bouncer and rocker offers 3 recline positions for ultimate comfort.
"With one-step assembly, it's quick and easy to set up. The lightweight design makes it simple to move around, and it even folds flat for easy storage. Plus, the machine washable cover and cooling fabric ensure your baby stays comfortable and clean. Perfect for naptime, playtime, or anytime your little one needs a break!"
The 2-in-1 product is clearly popular with shoppers. Replying to @emily_campbellx's video, a shopper revealed there weren't any left in her local store. "I was in today didn't have any," read the message. Emily said: "Ahh there was only one in, I can imagine they'll all sell quite quickly."
The Facebook post shared by Baby Deals UK also stirred up lots of interest, with shoppers keen to shop the deal. One response read: "I feel a home bargains trip coming on."
Another said: "This is what I want." A third fan replied: "We need to go home bargains." A fourth response said: "Worth looking for your house." Someone else commented: "Had this for both boys and was great." Shoppers can locate their nearest Home Bargains store here.

Elsewhere, Amazon offers the Munchkin 2-in-1 Spring Baby Bouncer for £49.41, down from £99.99. John Lewis also has the Munchkin Spring 2-in-1 Bouncer & Rocker for £100.
Alternatively, Argos offer the well-reviewed Ingenuity Bouncity Bounce Vibrating Deluxe Baby Bouncer for £35. The product description says: "The plush, removable headrest helps keep newborns comfortable. As they grow and begin to kick those legs, baby can create their own steady bounce.
"The removable toy bar with 2 toys entertains, while the soothing motion of the vibrating seat helps calm. With an easy-to-clean seat pad and modern fabric design, this bouncy seat will fit right into your home and your family's routine."

Award-winning bar & restaurant in UK seaside town to close after 10 years as owner teases ‘it's just the beginning'

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MUCH-LOVED bar and restaurant is set to close its doors after almost a decade in the heart of the seaside town. Ojo Rojo, located in the Bournemouth Triangle, has announced it will be leaving the area after ten years of serving up tacos, cocktails, and a lively Mexican atmosphere. 4 Ojo Rojo, earned a spot in the UK's Top 50 Cocktail Bars for three years running Credit: Facebook / Ojo Rojo 4 Locals have responded with an outpouring of emotion, sharing memories and messages of support on social media Credit: Facebook / Ojo Rojo 4 From its diverse cocktail menu featuring house-made syrups and infusions, to its proud selection of agave spirits Credit: Facebook / Ojo Rojo Founded in Bournemouth, Dorset, by Trevor Hill and JJ Adams, Ojo Rojo made a name for itself with its bold flavours, mezcal-based drinks, and vibrant setting. It even earned a spot in the UK's Top 50 Cocktail Bars for three years running. The news was first reported by the Bournemouth Echo, who spoke with co-founders Trevor Hill and JJ Adams, confirming the closure is a 'strategic move' shaped by 'national industry pressure and local challenges.' But they've made it clear – this isn't the end. 'After nearly ten years of tacos, mezcal, music and magic, it's time for a new chapter,' they said. 'Ojo Rojo is moving on. Not because we've lost what makes us special but because we're ready to take everything that we've learnt and shape it into something stronger.' Locals have responded with an outpouring of emotion, sharing memories and messages of support on social media. Rachel Grant posted: 'Our first date venue, where will we go for our anniversary now.' Kelly Marie Young added: 'Such a shame! We love this restaurant.' Restaurant chain owned by Michelin-starred chef is on brink of collapse 16 years after it first opened Others praised the team's effort. There's also been frustration about the wider town centre. Ojo Rojo is well known for its dedication to authentic Mexican culture. From its diverse cocktail menu featuring house-made syrups and infusions, to its proud selection of agave spirits, the bar has drawn fans from across the South Coast. 'Our ambition is to revolutionise the well-known taco, while educating people about the deep-rooted Mexican culture,' reads a statement on their website. 'We are passionate that everyone who comes into contact with us feels refreshed.' The venue, which includes a downstairs bar, upstairs dining, and an outdoor hacienda, will continue to operate for a short while longer. Its sister site, Hacienda Harden, is also set to close. The owners remain hopeful and committed to the future. 'You reminded us what this place means to people and why this next chapter matters so much, from me, Jayjay and the whole office thank you so much for all the love,' they said. 'We're here for a little bit longer. Remember we are not done yet… This is just the beginning. "We want to build what comes next with you. Because whatever that next version looks like, it's going to have the same soul – yours.' Ojo Rojo's closure adds to a growing list of businesses shutting their doors in Bournemouth and across the UK. In Bournemouth, the Winton branch of WHSmith closed earlier this year, and the town has seen other high street names disappear amid rising costs and shifting shopping habits. Nationally, the retail and hospitality sectors are facing significant challenges. Department store Beales, which first opened in Bournemouth in 1881, closed its last remaining store in Poole in May 2025, citing increased operational costs and tax burdens. Other notable closures include Karen's Diner in Islington, which shut its final UK branch in June 2025 after its parent company went into liquidation with £400,000 in debt. Fashion retailer River Island is reportedly developing a radical rescue plan amid financial struggles, with store closures and job losses being potential outcomes. The Original Factory Shop is undergoing significant restructuring, with several stores across regions such as Worcestershire, Durham, and Cumbria slated to shut down this month. These closures highlight the broader economic pressures facing UK businesses, including rising operational costs, changing consumer behaviours, and increased competition from online retailers. What is happening to the hospitality industry? By Laura McGuire, consumer reporter MANY Food and drink chains have been struggling in recently as the cost of living has led to fewer people spending on eating out. Businesses had been struggling to bounce back after the pandemic, only to be hit with soaring energy bills and inflation. Multiple chains have been affected, resulting in big-name brands like Wetherspoons and Frankie & Benny's closing branches. Some chains have not survived, Byron Burger fell into administration last year, with owners saying it would result in the loss of over 200 jobs. Pizza giant, Papa Johns is shutting down 43 of its stores soon. Tasty, the owner of Wildwood, said it will shut sites as part of major restructuring plans

Sweet Williams in Pontardawe wins gift shop of the year

Mrs Emma Doyle runs Sweet Williams on 6-8 Herbert Street in Pontardawe. The shop has 96 reviews on Facebook and a recommendation ratio of 96%, specializing in beautiful handmade gifts. Sweet Williams is located on 6-8 Herbert Street. (Image: Emma Doyle) Mrs Doyle said: 'I am very much proud of our achievement. We have worked so hard. You only need to look at Trustpilot to see how many positive reviews we have. Now, to have recognition for that is fantastic. 'It's quite a big award. It started out as a hobby. We started in 2011 at home and then we got our first shop in 2016. So, we have had a presence on the high street for a number of years. We first had a studio and then we eventually got a shop. Mrs Doyle started her business in 2011. (Image: Emma Doyle) 'The shop became available at the start of COVID, and we have been here ever since. My background before I started this business was in law. I started the business while I was on maternity leave. 'I'm always trying to put Pontardawe on the map. We are a huge champion of shopping local and independent and feel privileged to have a space to do this in Pontardawe. 'This is important because in the last couple of years it's been tough for businesses on the high street. So, to have support from the local community is fantastic.' The store specialises in handmade gifts. (Image: Emma Doyle) Mrs Doyle was informed via email that she was nominated for the award, before a panel of judges looked at her business, including her reviews. She will attend Ashton Gate Football Stadium in Bristol next month to attend an award ceremony and receive the accolade in person. Mrs Doyle continued: 'We have supplied products for the Royal Family and received an award from Theo Paphitis from Dragons Den. But this award has been the icing on the cake. 'We just want to keep building our customer base. We still have so many people coming in who didn't realise we were here. 'We are a family business. My husband chips in, as do my children. My mum and dad also get involved. We even offer sowing workshops." The business creates its own brand of textile products. (Image: Emma Doyle) Sweet Williams is a gift shop consisting of several retail spaces set over 4 floors. The business has recently reopened its basement following a yearlong renovation project, which is now home to Welsh/locally sourced foodie treats and a pre-loved bookshop. On the fourth floor, Sweet Williams creates its own brand of textile products, which are then supplied to over 200 stockists, helping other independent retailers to grow their presence on the local high street.
