With bank holiday season coming, many of us might be looking to enjoy a leisurely, sociable breakfast with loved ones. A nifty wafflemaker from Argos that can make themed waffles - not just for Easter but for other events year-round - usually costs £29.99, but shoppers have spotted a smart way to snag one for less than £15 ahead of the long weekend.
Giles & Posner's 5-in-1 Mini Celebration maker doesn't just make traditional waffles, but also comes with sets of versatile interchangeable plates. It means home cooks can make heart shaped, Easter egg, Christmas tree and Halloween pumpkin waffle designs, brightening up the breakfast table throughout the year.
The gadget heats quickly and is non-stick which makes it easy to make impressive waffles. Meanwhile, the removable plates mean it's simple to wash up once everything has cooled down.
The waffle maker currently costs £29.99 at Argos. However, bargain hunters have spotted a way to get one for less than £15 thanks to money saving website TopCashback.
Shoppers who sign up for free as a new member on the site get a £15 free bonus when they make their first qualifying purchase plus cashback on the spend.

This works out at a saving of around 51% on the usual price.

TopCashbackWaffles have become increasingly popular on British breakfast tables in recent years, especially for home cooks wanting to do something a little bit different for special occasions. With many cafes and restaurants selling them as elaborate desserts, waffles are surprisingly cost-effective and fun to make at home - plus everyone gets to choose their own toppings.
Lakeland makes a no mess Electric Waffle Maker which makes four waffles at a time and which they say is ready in three minutes. It's currently £59.99 - and only makes traditional square waffles - but is hugely popular with shoppers, garnering a 4.5 out of 5 rating based on 38 reviews.
Meanwhile, if waffles don't appeal (or even if they do and you want to expand brunch even further), Giles & Posner also makes a matching mini pancake maker. It's currently £12 on Amazon and has an average rating of 3.8 stars out of 5 based on 529 reviews.
Amazon also sells their own version of the Giles & Posner waffle maker at a slightly higher price (£32.99) and, while it's not possible to use the TopCashback deal on it, the set comes with a special box to keep all the removable plates in, so there's no risk of losing them in the back of the cupboard after the first use.
Whether they've bought it from Amazon or Argos, where the TopCashback deal is valid, customers have praised the waffle maker for being easy to use and giving impressive results.
One five star reviewer said: "I bought this waffle maker around a month ago. I have to say it is one of my best buys ever. It’s a great little gadget, easy to use and keep clean."
A second shopper simply said: "Perfect! Love it."
Another added: "My granddaughter and her friend had great fun using the waffle maker. They had fun trying all the patterns."
However, a three star reviewer gave a word of warning describing the waffle maker as 'good, but be careful,' adding: "Good product. Not suitable for children (just in case your idea was to cook hot cakes with your kids). Must use heat gloves as it overheats. Nice shapes, easy to use."
