SHOPPERS are rushing to their nearest B&M, hoping to get their hands on a £15 purchase to liven up their garden.
If your outdoor area is looking a little dreary and you want to dazzle your guests this summer, you’ll need to be quick before shelves are empty.
Bargain hunters were stunned when they spotted the popular Vancouver Hanging Chair scanning at up to 50% off.
The outdoor essential usually scans for £25 at B&M in store, and is advertised at £30 online, but the shop slashed its price to just £15.
This modern and stylish chair can be a great addition to your garden and become your perfect place to relax and unwind.
It is easy to hang from the ceiling, tree or any sturdy overhang that can support your weight. It holds up to 100kg.
Savvy shopper Mirella spotted the bargain deal at her local B&M in Wishaw and shared the find on Facebook.
Recommending it to their friend, one shopper said: “This will go nice in your garden.”
Another wrote: “They fit perfectly on a child’s swing frame.”
The deal is available on the B&M website – all you need to do is search for “Vancouver Hanging Chair”.
You can’t buy online, as B&M doesn’t offer home delivery, but you can check stock of the chair at your nearest store by entering your postcode.
But remember it’s only a bargain if you intended to buy it in the first place.
Plus always shop around to check you’re getting the best deal – you can find more on how to do that below.
A similar hanging chair costs £27.99 at The Range and £50 at Next.
Meanwhile, Debenhams are currently listing 172 egg chairs, several of which are heavily discounted.
The Alivio Hanging Egg Chair Basket Chair comes to just £134.99 on its website, a reduction of 66%.
Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and coloured in trendy neutrals, the swinging chair was initially priced at an eye-watering £399.99.
Debenhams claims the “elegant hanging egg chair is designed as a great focal point for any garden” and “ideal for the decking, patio, lawn or slabs”.
The iconic British retailer first said goodbye to its physical locations three years ago but operates a website selling homeware and more.
It takes around 20 minutes to build and can be returned within 28 days if you’re no longer keen.
Reviewers describe the garden accessory’s grey cushion as “comfy”.
And if you’re not too fussed on the sleek design of the Alivio chair you can always opt for the Neo chair.
The monochromatic design features a black cushion and only costs £151.10, down by almost 50% from £299.98.
Fans of the Neo chair say it’s “great looking and very comfortable”.
How to compare prices to get the best deal
JUST because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn't mean it's always a good deal.
There are plenty of comparison websites out there that’ll check prices for you – so don’t be left paying more than you have to.
Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.
Here are some that we recommend:
- Google Shopping is a tool that lets users search for and compare prices for products across the web. Simply type in keywords, or a product number, to bring up search results.
- Price Spy logs the history of how much something costs from over 3,000 different retailers, including Argos, Amazon, eBay and the supermarkets. Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock.
- Idealo is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers. All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one.
- CamelCamelCamel only works on goods being sold on Amazon. To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.
How can I shop at B&M to get the best deals?
Shopping at B&M to get the best deals involves a combination of strategies and tips.
Here are some steps to help you maximize your savings:
B&M releases weekly offers and promotions so it’s always good to look for their leaflets or visit their website to see current deals.
You can also download the B&M app for exclusive offers, digital leaflets, and the latest information on discounts and promotions.
Another good idea is to use price comparison websites or apps to ensure B&M offers the lowest price for the items you’re interested in.
So make sure to compare with other retailers like Home Bargains, Poundland, and supermarkets.
B&M often has clearance sections where items are heavily discounted.
These sections can be found throughout the store and often hold great bargains.
Buying in bulk can also be a good shout sometimes.
Some items are cheaper when bought in bulk so try looking for multi-pack deals or larger quantities that offer a lower price per unit.
