Tesco's £50 suitcase 'just like' £785 version 'too good to say no'
Shoppers say they are 'running' to Tesco to find the popular Clubcard deal they 'can't resist'
Tesco shoppers are racing to stores for a £50 Clubcard deal, which they say is "too good" to turn down. The supermarket giant has wowed luxury luggage fans with The Manhattan Metallic Collection, as customers think the suitcases look just like RIMOWA's premium luggage.
As seen on TikTok, Tesco's collection offers various sizes and colour options, and shoppers can save up to a third on the recommended retail price with a Clubcard. For instance, there's a small case on offer for £40, down from £55, with a Clubcard. There's also a large case on offer for £50, down from £75, with a Clubcard. The colour options include silver, gold and blue suitcases.
RIMOWA's suitcases are much more expensive. Known for its high-quality luggage, the luxury label's Essential Check-In M suitcase costs £785, while the Original Cabin costs £1,070. The high-end suitcases are available in various colours, including silver, titanium, and blue options.
Despite the price difference, the Tesco suitcases arguably resemble the pricier alternative. Both hard-shell suitcases offer a metallic look that has impressed shoppers. However, the product design will differ between each brand.
Tesco's offering has gone viral on TikTok, prompting shoppers to race to stores for the suitcases. In one viral video, @Bychxrise wrote: "Girlies run to Tesco for the ultimate rimowa [alternatives]." She added: "Tesco providing the goods - the purple had to come straight home with me tbh."
Elsewhere, @Jade_halley filmed herself buying one of the suitcases. Her caption said: "You fell for the Tesco rimowa [alternative]." Yet another shopper who compared Tesco's suitcase to the luxury brand posted a video as @Hannahelizabethholliday.
"I have fallen victim to the Tesco rimowa suitcase," she claimed, adding: "Too good to say no." The videos were flooded with comments from excited shoppers. Someone replied: "My holidays are about to get even more exciting I'm on my way."
A second viewer wrote: "NO I'm hoping they still have one by my pay day." A third said: "Gorg I don't even need a suitcase but I wanna get one." A fourth added: "Getting in my car to go tesco right now."
Equally excited, a keen shopper said: "Running as we speak." Another response read: "These are stun!!!!" Someone else praised: "These are a slay," and a fan echoed: "Omg obsessed."
Elsewhere, shoppers who got the suitcase praised their purchase. A buyer said: "I got the silver!!! Literally got stopped about 10 times around the shop with people asking."
A customer commented: "I bought the silver yesterday & it actually fits so much!!" Another said: "I have the silver one and it's actually so good," and a commenter agreed: "I got the silver one last year and it's brilliant!" Someone else replied: "They also have these in b&m guys for like £20."

Not only this, but she still has the capacity to earn £3,199 extra thanks to the 873 items she currently has listed on the marketplace app. Posting on social media, the mother uploaded a snap showing off a huge pile of her Vinted parcels, as she penned: 'Top tips for selling on Vinted from someone who's made over £10k this year.' First things first, according to Isabella, you shouldn't upload more than seven items a day on the app. She advised: 'Post four to seven items daily. Don't post them all on the same day as they will then become lost.' Secondly, she revealed her top tip for taking the best pictures, as she added: 'Post your items on a plain background, e.g. white bedding or clean carpet.' Additionally, Isabella revealed the exact number of days you should wait before re-listing items. 'If you still haven't sold your item after seven days, delete the item and re-post,' she stressed. Not only this, but Isabella warned against using supermarket bags to send out parcels, as she continued: 'Use actual mailing bags rather than bin bags/Tesco bags. 'This will make you look more professional and your buyer will be more likely to return.' I've made £200 on Vinted in 24 hours - the 9 items that are flipping FAST & the retro product to always pick up But that's not all, as Isabella also advised Vinted enthusiasts to offer bundle discounts, even if it's only 5%, as she acknowledged: 'This will make the buyer want to buy more.' Not only should users take pictures of their items on a white background, but Isabella also stressed the magic number of pictures you must upload to every listing if you want to sell fast. Do you need to pay tax on items sold on Vinted? QUICK facts on tax from the team at Vinted... The only time that an item might be taxable is if it sells for more than £6,000 and there is profit (sells for more than you paid for it). Even then, you can use your capital gains tax-free allowance of £3,000 to offset it. Generally, only business sellers trading for profit (buying goods with the purpose of selling for more than they paid for them) might need to pay tax. Business sellers who trade for profit can use a tax-free allowance of £1,000, which has been in place since 2017. More information here: She recommended: 'Use natural lighting, good quality images and always show at least three images of the item.' Finally, Isabella noted the importance of raking up five star reviews on the handy app, as she concluded: 'Having good reviews is essential when selling on Vinted. '[It] shows that you are reliable and the items are likely to be as described.' Social media users react The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @isabella.98x, has clearly left many impressed, as numerous users eagerly flocked to the comments to thank Isabella for her handy hacks.

Mum of two in tears as 'TikTok addiction' sends her to prison
Katherine Greenall, 29, spent a whopping £300,000 on TikTok tokens which she went on to gift to her favourite creators after she stole it from a St Helens business A mum was left crying after her " TikTok addiction" sent her to prison. Katherine Greenall, 29, wiped away tears as she was sentenced to 28 months behind bars after stealing an estimated half-a-million pounds from her employer while she worked as an account manager for the car company. Liverpool Crown Court heard on Friday how Greenall started working for the St Helens-based New Reg Ltd as a services manager in April 2021. Greenall, of Gloucester Street in the same town, was then promoted to accounts manager in December of the following year - which gave her access to business bank accounts. Prosecutor Christopher Taylor detailed how she had been considered as a "vital part of the company's growth", "very organised and capable" and both "trusted and respected", but committed a "significant abuse of trust" in manipulating financial reports that enabled her to siphon off funds into her own accounts. An analysis of her bank statements found during 2023Greenall received a total 53 unauthorised deposits totalling £57,036 from her employer. The same period also saw a "change in her expenditure", including numerous purchases from supermarkets, food outlets, Amazon Prime and sports retailers. The mum also splashed out on family holidays and hotel bookings as well as using stolen cash to pay for a family solicitor. Greenall's criminality went on to accelerate in the early months of 2024. In January that year, she made further four deposits to the tune of £8,917, followed by 10 more in February amounting to £14,916. She went on to pocket a staggering £146,288 in 20 separate payments, which were dwarfed by another 31 transactions in April 2024, giving a £196,364 boost to her bank account. Missing sums of money started to raise suspicions among senior managers. Smaller than expected profits were raised with Greenall during an internal investigation on May 1. She pledged to investigate the matter before returning to her desk and made a "final deposit" of £20,000 into her account, citing a false family illness. Greenall would admit her criminality in another meeting on May 7 and she went on to be arrested on May 13. She claimed the deposits "started small" and that they were used to fund "household purchases." But se later admitted the money had been used to fund TikTok payments, gifting tokens to content creators on the platform. Greenall ultimately swindled a total of £443,523 from the company in 121 separate transactions. She went to spend £301,162 on TikTok tokens with the proceeds being shared between the social media platform and the content creators who got the coins between February 2024 and April 2025, Liverpoo Echo reports. Greenall had no previous convictions. Paul Becker, defending, told the court that his client "may have been suffering from a form of addiction to TikTok", but stated that she had "no formal diagnosis to such an addiction". It is believed her two children, a six-year-old girl and an 11-year-old boy with severe ADHD, will be looked after by her sister, a nursery care worker, in her absence. Mr Becker said: "This is fraud on a massive scale. It started out for personal matters. It was not TikTok initially, but it is right to say that the bulk of the fraud went towards TikTok. "It started off otherwise, and it became TikTok. It was not for any sort of financial reward. It was amusement. The more she did it, the more she became addicted to being on TikTok. What she was getting out of it was entertainment. That is what she was paying for. That is where the majority of the money was going towards. "Of course, that came from her employer who is massively out of pocket. It placed the business at risk and other members of staff in jeopardy. This was an abuse of trust on a massive scale. She is thoroughly ashamed of what she has done and has come today prepared for what might be said to be the inevitable. "She did not hold back with the police. She told them chapter and verse. It is not really rational thinking, to embark on this voyage of fraud and misadventure. What started out for her own personal benefit very quickly escalated into providing monies to TikTok. "Bringing up children is not easy. This, I am sure, had an effect on her at the time of the offending. It is perhaps some sort of insight as to why somebody embarks upon this sort of fraud. "It may be said that she was just greedy and wanted a better life and that is why she did it, but one has to have a holistic view of the factors in her life. It must have worn her down. It is not to negate what is deplorable behaviour, but she did not have an easy time. She is, if nothing else, a good mum who has done her best." Greenall admitted to one count of fraud by abuse of position. Appearing in the dock, she wiped away tears while being jailed for 28 months.
