BOTH kids and parents are counting down the days until Christmas, in hope the annual celebration will bring some much needed joy and excitement to 2020.
But little ones are often a little too eager as the day draws near, and are often tempted to sneak a peek at what’s under the tree.
This year might be a little different though, because one Home Bargains shopper pointed out that the purse-friendly store is selling a Snoop Alarm for just £1.99.
The motion activated alarm prevents kids from snooping at their presents under the tree, alerting parents the moment someone gets close.
Once it senses someone within range, the alarm will start flashing and let out an ear-piercing siren – stopping snoopers in their tracks.
Members of the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group – where the image was shared – loved the idea, with many suggesting snapping one up this Christmas.
While many simply tagged friends and loved ones, some shared their amusement in the comments – even joking that adults needed it too.
“Thank god they didn’t have this when I was younger,” one woman joked.
And another said: “I need this on my prezzies never mind the kids.”
Similar versions are also sold on Amazon and Ebay, as well as The Range, according to one shopper.
Plus, Home Bargains is selling cute £1.99 Disney princess outfits for kids & they’re perfect for mini Snow Whites.
