Parents race to Asda as Squishmallows are reduced to less than a QUID, and there’s loads of different styles
ASDA shoppers are racing down to their local store to snap up some majorly reduced Squishmallows before they're all gone.
The adorable soft toys have been a favourite for kids for a while now, but the brand isn't always easy to get your hands on.
Posting in the popular Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, one shopper showed off their haul of the plushies.
She nabbed six of the toys altogether and thanks other users for sharing the deal.
"Thank you to the people posting about the 90p Squishmallows at Asda. No price on the shelf but these all scanned at that price," she wrote.
Her post caught the attention of even more Squshmallow fans and currently has over 345 comments.

One said: "I'll have to go and get some!!"
"Great find! Lucky you," another said.
But another shopper hasn't so lucky and noted the toys weren't reduced in their local store.
"I price checked everyone in my store yesterday and we're all £6 - that was the price on the shelf too." they wrote.
Another Asda shopper did manage to make the most of the reduced price though, they also raved about the deal in the Facebook group.
"Squishmallows 90p in Asda Longwell Green," they said.
It looks like the shop still has plenty of stock left too, so it might be worth checking your local Asda to see if they're reduced there too.

What to watch out for when buying toys online
HERE are the British Toy and Hobby Association's top tips for buying toys online:
- Shop early. Don't leave ourchases to the last minute rush which might leave you fewer options of where to buy from.
- Check out third-party sellers. Look for sellers you recognise and trust. Be cautious of retailers you don't know and do your research checking reviews and where they're based.
- Go for branded toys. Try and choose a branded toy as then you can compare it to the manufacturer's own website to check it's legit.
- Be careful of going for the cheapest price. If something looks too good to be true, it probably is.
- Check if there are any age restrictions. Make sure you give suitable toys to children based on their age.
- Check reviews carefully. Some reviews are fake so look carefully at the comments.
- Stay with children at first. When your child opens a toy for the first time, stay with them and check for faults, detachable small parts, access to stuffing and loose or accessible batteries or magnets.
