Stacey Solomon

[Pinchme]

bleeping hell, my husband and I pay for our daughter to go to waterbabies with our last pennies because when I was on maternity leave I paid for her to go swimming with a similar school, but I couldn’t afford it when I went back to work. When we moved last year we had a bit of a scare where she fell in a pond and wanted to take her back to what she knew. She’s too young for our swimming pool’s lessons still. This makes me so angry. Stacey can absolutely afford it

Exactly, this is what's so wrong, her greed is just hard to believe.

Option 1.
Why couldn't she of taken the freebee, gone swimming, posted *GIFTED in big letters, and SAID a big thank you to waterbabies, big them up etc etc.

Or option 2,
PAY for the swimming and ask waterbabies to pass a free voucher onto a family that actually cannot afford them. But still post her time with waterbabies, giving them the advertising they obviously want.

Option 3,
take the freebee cause you are a greedy witch, post on insta, put the smallest *gifted tag that's possible on the post, in the hope people won't spot it, and go swimming, knowing full way that you can actually afford it, but take it anyway

Guess she took option 3, Stacey Solomen, how do you sleep at night, shame on you.

None of these influencers ever pick option 2 and that’s so sad

Had a reply from ASA, now let's see if it makes any difference, I will keep complaining until she changes her underhand ways.

Definitely this, she could have taken even just the 1st lesson as a taster session and then written a rave review, then like you say pay or donate, should she not be supporting a small business?!

I really used to like her and I still do like who she used to be but all the underhand ads and gifted are so disappointing.

There will be vulnerable mums following her because of the depression, they will be looking to her and feeling under pressure. Their heads won't be in the right place and these are the people she is duping with her behaviour.

I've had the same response, hopefully she gets pulled up on it soon. I'm so suspicious of any of her stories now

*This* is how to declare ads/gifted.
Complete transparency. This is the unmumsy mums IG. Stacey could learn a thing or two..

Unmumsy mum is the best example

Unmumsy mum is the perfect example of how to do IG right!

She declares all her ADs, she admits if she gets something wrong and actually has a talent! X

Does she really think her followers believe that she will be hanging her home made Christmas wreath on her front door considering she had a company come and dress the front of her house for Halloween! I have no issues with her sharing ads but at least be open and honest about it. Everything feels so sneaky!

So Stacey and her sister were in Hobbycraft today and came away with gifted Christmas Eve boxes.
Why oh why are these z listers being gifted so much especially her mate Hinch too when they clearly can afford it themselves.
Better still get gifted items and perhaps pass them on to those who need it, help those who are less fortunate than yourself.

 

[Mrssparkle]

That's really annoyed me!! Knowing there is people out there who are going to be struggling at Christmas and she's bragging about gifted items!! She knew fine well she would be gifted something when she tagged them in her post!! Then has the cheek to sit on loose women and say how people are struggling financially!! Shameful

Oh great yet another store to add to my tit list.
The greed of this woman, to actually be offered is one thing to accept is another. Why couldn’t she be gracious and say actually, I was going to buy these anyway please donate them to the food bank/local children’s hospital/child’s care home.
Literally no thought, it’s all just mememe taking everything you can get. I’d be absolutely mortified to accept so much free stuff on what I imagine is a fair fine income she has

I see it as a form of bragging!! How many of her 2.1 million followers are going to be struggling this Christmas!! It's disgusting!!

Yes you’re right, it is!

 

[LalaLand93]

She was probably sent a gift card to use. I love how she was like this is not an ad blah blah yet only went in there to spend her free gift card ffs

 

[Sarah W]

Why in her stories does she always say “I bought” when you can see a tiny “gifted” in the corner! She seems to always be on the beg at the minute!

 

[Dinosaurlover2019]

Looking on her stories with swimming today I can’t see any #gifted note? Is it from a previous story? Surely every time one story is done with something gifted it should be stated clearly?

Yes the previous one, she put gifted on it, soooo tiny needed a magnify glass to see it.

Will be interesting to see, she is doing underwater pics in the next few days she said, can I bet that it will also be a freebee photo session, eyes peeled for the #gifted tag, it's gonna be tiny so get your glasses on.

She's brilliant. And she won't accept gifts for the kids if she doesn't feel she needs them and often offers them up for giveaways.
