Home Bargains shoppers 'not sure how to feel' about new 99p drink

Home Bargains shoppers have been left divided over a new 99p drink that some are saying is 'far too sweet'.

The popular retailer is known for its array of quirky products, especially when it comes to food and drink, that other stores don't always offer. Showcasing the new 'Swizzles Squash' collection, Home Bargains shared a vibrant image of the new drinks to its 1.4m followers on Facebook.

Featuring Drumstick Raspberry Squash, Refreshers Lemon Squash, Refreshers Sour Apple Squash and Love Hearts Squash, the post soon racked up plenty of likes and comments from shoppers sharing their different opinions. It read: "[star emoji] STAR BUY [star emoji] Your favourite sweets are now a drink! What flavour would you choose? Swizzels 1L Squash only 99p in stores now!"

It seems that the latest Star Buy proved popular with some shoppers, and not so popular with others. Many Home Bargains fans tagged their friends in the post to show them the new products.

Among the comments, one shopper said: "Just got the lemon squash lovely."

A second happy shopper commented: "These look nice. I’d have the drumstick or the love hearts. Wouldn’t say no to the refreshers ones."

Other shoppers weren't so convinced. One unimpressed comment read: "Bottles of artificial sweetener [sick emoji]."

A fourth Home Bargains shopper tagged their friend and said: "I'm not sure how I feel about this? [laugh emoji]."

The 99p drink is available to purchase in store now. Find your nearest Home Bargains store here.
