TK Maxx bargain hunter wowed at finding £335 designer bag on sale for 'fraction of the price'

A TK Maxx shopper has been left in disbelief after discovering a designer handbag worth more than £330 on sale for a much lower cost. The high street retailer is well known for its discounts on authentic designer items, making it the perfect place for many fashion lovers and bargain hunters.

And this was exactly the case for one customer who couldn't believe her luck when she found a £335 Marc Jacobs Purple Snapshot Teddy Bag on the shelf for "an absolute steal" of a price. Marc Jacobs is a massively popular designer brand, famed for its sartorial interpretations of trends in popular culture.

The majority of Marc Jacobs bags will usually set shoppers back a few hundred pounds, but TikToker and TK Maxx fan Adrienne Amelia was able to get her hands on one for less than £80.

Taking to the social media platform, she shared a clip of the high-end bag for £260 less that its typical retail price in the likes of Selfridges, Flannels and Harvey Nichols.

In the caption, she wrote: "An absolute STEAL. These bags are normally over £300 but it was reduced to £75 #bargain."

Her TikTok showed off the furry purple cross-over bag with what looks like its genuine Marc Jacobs tags still attached. The clip zooms in on the price tag attached to the bag.

The price tag shows that the Marc Jacob bag costs £226 at TK Maxx. While that is still a steep price to pay, the RRP for the bag shows that it is usually £335.

The purple Marc Jacobs teddy bag is made from plush faux shearling in a slouchy, boxy structure. It also has two zipped compartments, with the logo stamped across its shoulder cross-body strap.
