Annabel was out shopping in her local B&M in Wallsend when she came across the toy.
But when she scanned it on the B&M app - the usual way savvy shoppers come across unmarked bargain buys - it didn't come up.
It also didn't have a price tag on it, so she decided to go up to the till to ask how much it was.
And it was at that point that she discovered it would cost her just 10 pence.
"Peppa Pig party bus at B&M scanning for 10p," she wrote alongside pictures of her new purchase on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook.
"There was no tag and doesn't scan on the app - says barcode not found.
"£39.99 on Amazon and Smyths!"
The party bus is a two in one playset that comes with three figures - Peppa, Danny Dog and Candy Cat - and 13 party-themed accessories.
"Imagine Peppa and friends going for a rooftop ride in the cheery red double-decker bus, then pop the bus into party playset mode to discover 3 floors of feature-filled fun," a description of the product reads online.
"What will the figures do next? How about a dance party using the twirling platforms?
Mums issue stark warning about 'dark Peppa Pig' videos going viral on YouTube set out to target and terrify your kids
"A spin on the roundabout toy? A ride down the slide? Should the balloons go on the bus, or on top of the jukebox?"
And after Annabel shared snaps of her child with their new toy, others took to the comments section to plan their next trip to B&M with friends.
"OMG!" one wrote.
"Why not in the Dundee ones?" another sighed, tagging a mate.
"Someone buy me one and stick on Vinted for me to buy for a couple of quid lol," a third commented.
"Can't find none near me!"
Peppa Pig legacy
PEPPA Pig first aired in 2004 and has since been broadcast in 180 territories and translated into 40 languages.
Now it's spawned books, toys and even two theme parks, with the global Peppa empire now worth over £1billion.
Creators Neville Astley and Mark Baker admitted they were initially worried the idea would never get off the ground, and that people at first, were bored of the idea.
Astley explained: "People in the pub would ask us, 'What are you drawing?' We'd say, 'A pig, called Peppa, it's going to be big'.
'They'd lose interest and wander off."
"Wow, as if," someone else added.
"When they don't scan on the app, that's how you know it's deffo 10p," another wrote.
"As soon as I'm back we're off out," someone else said, again tagging a friend.
"Amazing find," another smiled.

Four Father's Day 2025 unique and thoughtful gifts which will arrive on time for Sunday

Father's Day 2025 is coming this weekend and for those who are yet to buy anything for the big day, we have got you covered with this gift guide that is sure to please all of the father's out there - and they are still available to arrive before Sunday! Father's Day is just around the corner and there are sure to be a few last minute shoppers out there who have either forgotten about the date or left it last minute and are now scrambling for ideas. The big day falls on Sunday June 15th this year and while a crate of beers or a box of his favourite chocolates are sure to make the majority of men smile, you may be looking to go the extra mile this year. To help those who are looking for something a little more personal for the special father or grandfather figure in their life this year, I have compiled a short gift guide that covers a range of items that are sure to please every man - from foodies and alcohol enthusiasts to health and wellness and experience day lovers. After all, the day only comes around once a year so why not branch out a little this year and think outside of the box a little. Here's some inspiration for those searching for a unique gift this Father's Day which are all still available to snatch up before Sunday.. Foodie dad As the old saying goes, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. So food could be a perfect present for all the foodie dads out there but not just any old food - a fancy box of Spanish tapas ingredients. Box Tapas creates a gorgeous collection of Spanish ingredients, allowing you to create authentic and delicious tapas with new flavours and products that have never before been available in the uk. Shoppers can choose from a range of five Tapas Boxes, including Classic, Vegetarian, Seafood, Chorizo or Gourmet, with prices starting from £54.59. Each box contains a carefully curated set of quality ingredients (10-14 per box) which can be used to produce a range of tapas dishes. Buyers can expect authentic, high quality tapas fundamentals such as Whole Gordal Olives or Valencian Almonds with Fine Herbs. Other items are traditional Spanish sauces which require a few other basic ingredients like rustic bread or potatoes to make a dish such as the spicy Salsa Brava, nutty and creamy Romesco, garlic-rich Alioli or the Iberico Pate with Paprika. When deciding on a box, shoppers can see the full list of ingredients within each one and a whole list of recipes for each one to inspire those creating the tapas. Box Tapas would make a very thoughtful Father's Day present for those looking to spoil a food lover. It will also make a very impressive 'picky bits' feast which dads can share with their family and friends or impress dinner party guests with. You can buy a box from Box Tapas directly from their website or purchase it from Amazon with next day delivery available here. Boozy dad Another popular gift for men is alcohol. For the dads out there who drink spirits and enjoy finding new brands or small businesses that sell their own alcohol, then this could be the perfect gift this Father's Day. Wiltshire-based distillery Witchmark offers a range of world-class specially created batches of vodka and gin and whiskey. Witchmark creates its own neutral grain spirit and its single malt whiskey from barley grown on the estate where the distillery stands, ensuring complete quality control from grain to glass. The distillery recently announced its B Corp classification, making it now the highest-scoring distillery in England with the World Drinks Awards recognising Witchmark's Vodka with Gold Award and their BLack Lime Gin with a Silver Award. The Witchmark Single Origin English Vodka which comes in a 70cl bottle is described as 'smooth, clean and crisp' with a rich and creamy flavour. Produced in small batches and with only 1,250 bottles available at the price point of £43, this is likely to be a great present for any spirit loving dad. Meanwhile, their Black Lime Gin has been described as 'bright, vibrant and zesty' is also available in a 70cl bottle and is priced at £43. The website's description reads: "Black Lime gin is a bold spirit, capturing exotic spices and citrus complexity. Juniper and coriander form its base, elevated by smoky black lime and numbing Szechuan pepper. Clove and orris root add warmth, while elderberry and yuzu provide a fruity, zesty finish." The entire spirit collection can be bought directly from their website or directly from Amazon with speedier delivery here. Wellness dad While there are so many thoughtful gifts that can be bought for Father's Day, what could be better than the gift of good sleep? Silent Night are offering some last minute Father's Day gifts from their anti-snore range - an ideal dad-friendly sleep gift which has been proven to reduce snoring frequency and volume by approximately 50%. The Silent Night Luxury Anti-Snore pillow, priced at £19.99 on Amazon, features an ergonomically shaped foam core to help support the head and reduce snoring, additionally featuring a soft-touch quilted cover for added luxury. The range has even been tested by the British Snoring & Sleep Apnoea Association who confirmed the pillow successfully reduced snoring frequency and volume by around 50%. Shoppers have also left glowing five star reviews with one stating: "Really great pillow, super comfortable and durable and definitely helped to reduce my snoring by a fair bit. Exactly as described, super happy with my purchase." The pillow is perfect for the father figures who find their sleep being impacted by snoring and can be bought online here from Amazon. Experience dad We have all heard the classic line - "I don't need anything" - before when asking a man what they would like to be gifted for a special occasion. And while most of the time, they are just being polite and urging their loved one to save their pennies, perhaps not giving a physical gift is the way to go this Father's Day. Instead, why not consider an experience present which is a great way to spend some quality time together which is one of the most important gifts of all. Flight Club is a popular social darts bar experience based in Glasgow City Centre on George Street which offers various fun and fast paced multiplayer games designed to bring people together and create a fun and memorable time. Groups or pairs are given their only private booth area with a touch screen computer so they can select which darts games they'd like to play. Players can also order food and drinks from Flight Club's extensive food and drinks menu off the screen which is delivered straight to their seat from a waiter. Social darts can be booked here for either 60 or 90 minute time slots with prices starting from £22 for two people. For those who are looking for a memorable and unique day out this Father's Day - this may just be the place.

Fans have continued to support Rosie and wish her the best in her life away from Love Island. ‌ It promoted one follower to probe into her love life and ask if she is single. Rosie decided it was the right time to reveal she is now happily loved up as she replied: "No I'm not," alongside a red love heart emoji. ‌ The TV star even shared a snap of her new man, whose identity she has chosen to keep private. In the sweet snap, the pair looked out to sea while on a white sandy beach as Rosie lovingly looked up to her tall dark haired boyfriend. Rosie's happiness comes after she suffered the heartbreaking loss of her dad in July last year. Sharing the devastating news, she wrote: "I don't think I'll ever come to understand why this has happened, words cannot even begin to express the pain I feel, the sadness feels endless knowing there is a piece of me missing that nothing will be able to fill. "Though we may be apart, you will always be in my heart, and I will hold onto and cherish our memories forever. I love you forever. Daddy's little girl always." During her time on Love Island, Rosie struck up a connection with Casey, but the couple were dumped just a week before the grand final. When they left the villa, Rosie made explosive claims about Casey as she claimed he had ignored her when they returned home. In a YouTube video, she shared: "We were both with friends and family.

Casey revealed that he and Rosie had split soon after the reunion show. In an Instagram Q&A with his fans, Casey explained: "Rosie and I have spoken... she's such a great girl. Life outside the villa is just very different and we will remain friends moving forward." The news didn't come as a surprise to fans, however, as they were convinced that the couple had split when Casey had taken to social media due to a string of clues. Both Casey and Rosie posted on socials about the reunion episode but failed to share an image alongside one another, or even mention each other. It didn't go unnoticed when Casey went on to like and comment on Samie Elishi's post, with one taking to Rosie's post and commenting: "Casey liked and commented under Samie's pic already but nothing for yours?" "Casey isn't serious about you," said a second.
