The toy set is currently listed on Home Bargains website as part of its StarBuys rang
Home Bargains is offering Disney fans and bargain hunters a 'magical' deal with its latest StarBuys – a Disney Encanto 5 Doll Family Set worth £40, now available for £6.99. The discount retailer frequently refreshes its StarBuy selection, featuring slashed prices on homeware, toiletries, toys, beauty products, and more, often at a fraction of the recommended retail price (RRP).
In a huge 82% price cut, fans of Disney and parents alike can snap up this toy set for a fraction of the usual cost. Originally priced at £40, the set has been reduced to just £6.99, allowing customers to pocket a saving of £33, reports Plymouth Live.

Home Bargains says: "Walt Disney Animation Studios' 60th feature, Encanto, tells the tale of an extraordinary family, the Madrigals. The magic of the Encanto has blessed every child in the family with a unique gift.

"Explore the magical world of Disney's Encanto and play out your favourite scenes with the Pepa, Felix, Antonio, Dolores, and Camilo Gift Set! Each doll comes wearing its signature outfit, just like in the movie! Pepa and Dolores wear their beautiful dresses, complete with their signature jewellery, hair accessories, and espadrille sandals!"
"Felix, Camilo, and Antonio are dressed in their story's authentic outfits, and come with removable shoes!" The description continues: "Take this fantastic family of five with you, and go on your own amazing adventures!"
Disney's hit film Encanto, which debuted in November 2021 and landed on Disney+ the following December, spins the enchanting tale of the Madrigal family living in a charmed house (Casita) nestled in the Colombian mountains. Mirabel, the sole Madrigal without a magical talent, embarks on a quest to rescue her family's dwindling magic and their beloved home.
The toy set is suitable for children aged three and up, but not for those under three due to potential choking hazards. There is no need for batteries, and Home Bargains advises: "Adult supervision is recommended during play to ensure safety, especially with small accessories."
For keeping the toys spick and span, the retailer suggests: "Wipe dolls and accessories with a damp cloth. Do not submerge in water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners."

When it comes to putting the toy away, Home Bargains instructs: "Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent damage."
Bargain hunters rejoice as Home Bargains slashes prices on other Encanto merchandise too. Snap up an Augustin figurine for just 99p, a steal down from the usual £3.99 RRP. Felix fans can also grab his figure for the same bargain price.
Elsewhere at Home Bargains, shoppers have been impressed by a large basket on sale for £19.99, a medium version for £14.99 and a small one for £9.99. TikTok user @weir_home says she "literally gasped" when she spotted the new "stunning" wicker basket planters.

Hollywood executive Peter Rice named head of ceremonies for 2028 Olympics

LOS ANGELES, July 23 (Reuters) - Organisers of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics have named TV and film executive Peter Rice as head of ceremonies and content, marking the first time a major Hollywood figure will oversee the creative production of the Olympic and Paralympic ceremonies. Rice, who has had senior leadership experience with 21st Century Fox and The Walt Disney Company, will serve as lead executive producer for both the Opening and Closing Ceremonies in Los Angeles. "Our ceremonies will capture the energy, innovation and creativity of Los Angeles as well as the emotion that exists at the heart of every Olympic Games," Rice told Reuters in an interview. "The challenge is to welcome the world in a way that's not only memorable, but truly representative of LA's unique spirit - a city that stands at the crossroads of creativity, sports, and art." The British American producer will shape the creative vision and oversee production of all four ceremonies at two iconic venues: the historic Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and the newly built SoFi Stadium. He said his experience with global sporting events like the Super Bowl, World Series, and FIFA World Cup has prepared him for the task, and emphasized that assembling a world-class production team was his top priority. "We need people with deep Olympic experience who can also tap into LA's creativity and energy," he said, adding that the selection of a production company is expected by year's end. LA28 Chairperson Casey Wasserman expressed enthusiasm for Rice's appointment, citing their 25-year friendship and Rice's unique blend of business, technical, financial and creative skills. "I knew he was our number one draft pick," Wasserman said. Rice, whose projects have earned 51 Academy Award and 293 Emmy nominations, hopes the ceremonies reflect Southern California's spirit of optimism. "It's a place where people go to pursue their dreams, and the Olympics are all about people's dreams," he said. The LA Games open on July 14, 2028, with the Paralympic Games following in August. It will be the first time Los Angeles has hosted a Paralympics.

Coca-Cola launches new drink that tastes just like popular cider

IN A FIZZ Coca-Cola launches new drink that tastes just like popular cider Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) COCA‑COLA has unveiled a brand new fizzy drink – and fans say it tastes just like a well-known pear cider. The new flavour, Pear Fanta, has been spotted in Home Bargains stores across the UK, with excited shoppers sharing their finds on Facebook. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 New cans of Pear Fanta spotted at Home Bargains which joins a wave of creative drinks hitting shelves this year Credit: Facebook 3 FANTA has also launched a new range of drinks much to the delight of shoppers Credit: Coca Cola One Facebook user posted: 'New cans of Pear Fanta spotted at Home Bargains,' prompting dozens of comments from curious fans. One said: 'I had one yesterday, different lol but nice.' Another commented: 'It's absolutely amazing.' A third joked: 'I can't believe it, a new Fanta flavour that isn't sugar free?!?' Others tagged their mates, encouraging them to hunt down the new drink, with some even comparing the flavour to popular fruity cider Kopparberg – though it's completely alcohol‑free. FANTA has also launched a new range of drinks much to the delight of shoppers. Coca‑Cola, the parent company behind the famous fizzy drink, has released three new drinks for fans to try. The flavours include Fanta Apple Zero Sugar, Fanta Raspberry Zero Sugar, and the limited-edition Fanta Tutti Frutti Zero Sugar. But shoppers have given mixed reviews about the product, with one describing the apple variety of the drink as "gross". However, another person was excited about the launch, stating they "must get these". While a third commented: "I like a bit of Tutti Fruitti". The Apple and Raspberry drinks are available in UK supermarkets now. A two-litre bottle of the berry drink is listed on the Asda website for £2, but currently appears to be out of stock. Coca-Cola admits 'shifting focus' after rush of customers report popular Diet Coke variety has been discontinued The new releases join a wave of creative drinks hitting shelves this year. Coca‑Cola recently launched Orange Cream, a blend of classic cola with orange and vanilla, available in both regular and zero‑sugar versions. It's expected to stay on shelves through at least the end of the year. Meanwhile, Diet Cherry Coke is making a return across the US this summer in retro 1980s packaging, though launch details remain limited. In a separate move, Coca‑Cola is preparing to roll out a version of its original cola sweetened with cane sugar this autumn in the US, replacing high-fructose corn syrup for a more natural taste. Not to be outdone, Pepsi released Wild Cherry & Cream in January, mixing rich cherry and smooth vanilla flavours in both full‑sugar and zero‑sugar formats. Pepsi is also entering the health‑conscious market with Pepsi Prebiotic Cola, launching this autumn in Original and Cherry Vanilla. The new range includes cane sugar and added prebiotic fibre, as the brand targets growing demand for gut‑friendly fizzy drinks. Why are products axed or recipes changed? ANALYSIS by chief consumer reporter James Flanders. Food and drinks makers have been known to tweak their recipes or axe items altogether. They often say that this is down to the changing tastes of customers. There are several reasons why this could be done. For example, government regulation, like the "sugar tax," forces firms to change their recipes. Some manufacturers might choose to tweak ingredients to cut costs. They may opt for a cheaper alternative, especially when costs are rising to keep prices stable. For example, Tango Cherry disappeared from shelves in 2018. It has recently returned after six years away but as a sugar-free version. Fanta removed sweetener from its sugar-free alternative earlier this year. Suntory tweaked the flavour of its flagship Lucozade Original and Orange energy drinks. While the amount of sugar in every bottle remains unchanged, the supplier swapped out the sweetener aspartame for sucralose.
