Parents praise 'life saver' Home Bargains product that is 'great for the car'

Parents have rushed to praise a low-price Home Bargains product after one savvy shopper shared details online.

Those who have young children will know the struggle of potty training, and will all have been in a situation where their toddler urgently needs to go to the bathroom whilst out and about.

Usually, this results in a mad dash to find the nearest public toilet.

However, one parent may have found a solution to this problem, and it costs just a little over £10.

Writing in the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group, she said: "Any toilet training families. My carry potty at Home Bargains. Only £12.99, still selling for £26.99 elsewhere."

Since being shared on Sunday afternoon, more than 1,000 people have liked the post — and a staggering 3,500 have left comments.

One wrote: "Excellent buy! We still have ours in the back of the car… kids now 4 and 5 been a life saver on long journeys!"

"These are great for days out and in the car," a second agreed.

A third commented: "These were brilliant when my little one was potty training. Great for sticking under the pushchair."

Another said: "These are a god send. Used to worry about my daughter needing a wee when travelling and didn’t want to put her in pull ups for any long journeys or walks. It fitted under my sons buggy perfectly"

"Mine was a godsend! Best thing I ever purchased," a fifth wrote.

A sixth shared: "These are great whilst out and about in the park, school run or days out on transport or in the car."

Another stated: "Absolute bargain! My twins are 4 and we still use ours on pretty much every journey!!"
