I paid 13p for a random tattoo as part of a Friday 13th promotion – it was a gamble picking a design from a lucky dip | The Sun
A TATTOO fan and mum of four has revealed the 13p tattoo she chose after a five hour wait.
Zaffron shared her journey in a TikTok video online.
She said: “Hey TikTokers, come with me and get a 13p tattoo.”
Zaffron said even though she arrived early there was a already long queue of customers excited to get 13p tattoos.
She said: “So here we are, we arrived at 9.40 and the queue was insane already. It was freezing cold.”
“So I had to go and run in and get a coffee, wrapped a blanket round my legs because we were down by the coast and it had a bitter chill.”

Turns out Keepsake Tattoo hold regular events on Friday 13th but this year they took their tradition a step further.
Roger Clark from Keepsake Tattoo said:
“We are a tattoo shop steeped in tradition, so we often hold events on Friday 13th, charging £13 for tattoos. This year, we decided to switch things up and charge 13p instead.
We had a feeling it would be busy, but the day was far busier than expected, with hundreds of people turning up.
