NOooooo!!! I still havent opened the last 3 packs of Sharpies i bought because of you guys!

I think I must have a stationary fetish. Don't need them, won't have a use for them, but strangely drawn to buy them!

Hey, maybe 5 people out of a population of 60 million had a chance of getting these for this price so lets all press the "hot" button!!!!.....Beggars all belief!

Because of the phrase "Oh, can I just borrow your Sharpie..."

They were asking if they were right for a 4/5 year old. I responded with my opinion. Cheers Columbo.

75p in Altrincham store over 40 on clearance Isle at 10.30pm tonight

You get a kick out of keeping still? :confused:

in which tesco????

whooaaaa awesome price! they were £6 the other day, doubt my place will reduce them more but great deal if it can be found

Hukkers lol

+1 for this :smile:
great price, heat added :smiley:

if you buy these for your kids and they mark the walls or any glossy surface, use spray on deodorant to get rid of the stain (Y)

​I absolutely love this community and the seriousness of the debates that go on! I see humour does not translate well! I do not care for statistics, who has access to it or the local vs national debate :laughing: . It is quite simple.........a user posts what they feel is a good deal...............other users agree or disagree............ I may take the opportunity to travel 144miles to Crawley just to see if they have any left! If I am successful in obtaining said deal, I will bring them home and store them with the other 2 packs of Sharpies I have purchased :laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing:

I no longer lend my pens to folk after googling buttsharpies

I don't believe anyone has any bitterness over a selection of sharpies!? :laughing:

It's the fact that "local" deals are showing up in "national" search results. They spoil the search results when looking for deals that Hukkers are able to purchase. This effectively makes them unavailable to the vast majority of consumers, so no deal to them, which is why we're seeing an increasing number of members voting cold. I dislike voting cold, I think this is a hot deal for the OP but still voted cold. No bitterness involved, simply the case of all too common wild goose chases and over-inflated heat.

In saying that, yes, give this and similar deals 10,000' heat if you live around the corner from where items have been marked down but the reality is that coverage of area is extremely small in relation to the size of the UK. The heat should be proportional.

With a population of ~64.6 million in the UK, jdr116's statistics probably aren't that far off the mark. I'm going to double up and suggest there may be 10 customers than 5 who could take advantage of the deal and it wouldn't surprise me if the bulk of those consumers are simply random people out shopping than Hukkers.

What do you think the statistics are?

Again, it's a debate of Local vs National and a sense of perspective of whether something is hot or cold. Both options are valid but just because someone doesn't agree with your opinion, it doesn't make them bitter. As far as I can tell, jdr116 made an accurate observation.

bargain! have some heat!

A single sharpie lasts forever. How do people use/need so many?

Pretty sure that's the point of a permanent marker :man:

Only got the 30 packs in my local (£6).

Local store specific reduction, not nationwide, cold.

It's a great price if it's in your store but over time, like an increasing amount of others on here, I'm beginning to question whether I should vote hot or cold for these sort of deals that are often incredibly isolated. Obviously most OP's post a deal as soon as they find one and near impossible to know whether the deal is local or national and therein lies the problem, which is why an increasing amount of Hukkers post comment that it's not in their store and vote cold. These "local" deals are showing up on "national" searches and distorting the quality of the search results.

I can't wait to my local corner shop marks down some bread buns from 75p to 1p. I'll post the deal on HUKD and watch it hit 4 figures, even though there's likely no buns left to buy or not economically viable to buy them and make a saving.

So, my loyalty is split. HOT for the OP but cold for everyone else.
On balance I'm going to vote cold but nevertheless...great find Sapark! Enjoy your markers :smile:

Mistake :wink:

wow nice find :smile: hot

These offers never exist in my tesco...

i always see these on here. What is so good about these and where are they generally used? Would they be useful for a 4 and 5 year old or too young? I see the words 'permanant marker' and go the other way but I do like a bargain so can someone please advise, thanks!

£1.38 in my local store, a bargain

Cheap heat

21 quid online...explain that one Tesco!

£7 Romford Tesco, still a great price though.

These are different prices in all the Tescos. You might be lucky though

amazing price! great find

good but probably a one off deal

Ridiculously hot :wink:

great bargain

Bargain.. Only down to £3.75 in my local

Wow cheap
