WHSmith - Xmas lights - 49p instead of £13.99!

Went into WHSmith (Wallington, Surrey) during my lunch hour and they were just putting out some Xmas lights at the amazing price of only 49p instead of the marked £13.99 - don`t know if they are available online.

They had Multi-colour, Clear and Icicle dangling lights to choose from, so I helped myself to a multi-colour and a clear set (yes I did pay for them...)

The bulbs appear to be non-led and non-user replaceable.

Details:

Multi-Effect Coloured (or clear) Lights

176 Coloured (or clear) bulbs
Indoor or Outdoor use (plug, transformer and controller must be indoors though)
Controller box for 8 lighting effects (combination, two light chasing, light chasing/steady on, two light mixed flashing, forward on/reverse off, step light, steady on)
12m overall length, 4m from plug to first bulb

The design of the box has the £13.99 rrp as part of the picture (not a sticker). There was a sticker on the box saying 1/2 marked price (now £6.99 was £13.99) which had been covered over with a sticker with 49p written by hand, so I would say that £13.99 is the rrp no matter what the website says.

Whatever it was, 49p each is a great deal.

They have all of their xmas decorations, cards and wrapping paper at 49p in Nottingham -listergate. Didn`t spot any lights but masses of cards and wrapping paper.
