B&M has impressed shoppers with a £29 gift set that 'will make a great Christmas present'. The discount chain is stocking a Cylo Instant Print Camera, which includes three thermal paper rolls and a camera strap. The popular set is available pink or grey, and the camera has a built-in rechargeable battery.
The set can be purchased in-store, with detailed specifications available on the B&M website. It suggests the camera is easy to use and ideal for capturing special moments.
The product description says: "Snap away and create instant memories with this Cylo Instant Print Camera! This digital instant print camera utilises innovative inkless thermal printing technology, enabling you to effortlessly capture and instantly print moments in striking black and white.
"A great way to mark those special moments with family and friends, instantly!" B&M adds that the camera has a LCD monitor ips 320x240px, 256mb memory card, and it comes preloaded with thermo-sensitive paper.
The camera has proven popular with shoppers thinking ahead to Christmas. Showcasing the set, Facebook page Money Saving Central said: "These instant print cameras at B&M will make a great Christmas present." The post went viral, earning 6,000 likes and 3,000 comments.
In response, one excited commenter said: "Would've been good for holiday." A second replied: "Gotta get the boys one of those." A third wrote: "These could be good for the party," and a fourth revealed: "I’ve always wanted one of these!"
Yet another fan wrote: "Saw a kid using one of these at the weekend. Roughly 5 years old. She was loving it and getting loads of compliments on her pics from passers by."
Someone commented: "These would be a good idea for the girls for Christmas." A viewer agreed: "These look canny for stocking fillers." Meanwhile, a fan shared: "They are great for kids I bought one for my granddaughter. Plus film tools are dirt cheap." A different comment claimed: "Basically a Polaroid camera."
