I kitted out my garden with cheap buys from Shein, Home Bargains & Tesco AND got 40% off my Aldi furniture – here’s how
A WOMAN has revealed that she kitted out her garden on a budget, leaving many very impressed.
So if your garden is looking as though it needs a bit of TLC in time for Summer, but you want to keep the costs low, you’ll need to listen up.
Proud Helen Cottam proudly took to Facebook yesterday to show off her lovely garden, leaving many stunned.
In the Facebook group, Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, which has 2.2million members, Helen shared two pictures of her garden – complete with a lovely furniture set, plants, candles, lights and more.
She said: “Managed to get this garden furniture from Aldi with the 40% code.
“Great quality furniture set.
“Was £190 delivered.”
Helen posted two pictures showing off her beautiful garden, showing off a lovely three-piece rattan furniture set, with a table in the middle to match.
Helen had decorated the seats with lovely bright green cushions and put a faux plant and a candle on the table.
Candles and solar lamps were spread out all around the garden and fairy lights and faux plants dressed the gorgeous grey fences.
Although Helen’s garden looks like she has splashed loads of cash, she explained that she managed to keep the costs low by getting her items from Aldi, Shein, Home Bargains and Tesco.
The savvy shopper explained that she used an online code to get 40% off of her Aldi furniture.
The set should have been £299 but thanks to the hefty discount on the Aldi website, Helen was lucky enough to nab it for £190, including delivery.
Unfortunately for those looking to nab the same deal, the OUTDOOR40 code that Helen used has now expired.
But make sure to keep your eyes peeled in case Aldi bring out another discount code.
Helen shared her post just 17 hours ago, but it has clearly left many very impressed, as it has quickly racked up a whopping 2,000 likes.
455 Facebook users flocked to the comments, sharing their praise for Helen’s “beautiful” garden décor.
One person said: “Beautifully decorated garden.”
Another added: “Omg that’s so nice.”
A third commented: “Looks amazing, well done.”
Someone else noted: “Looks fab and love the lights. If I tried that [it] would look pathetic.”
Meanwhile, one bargain hunter chimed in: “We got this too and I’m so pleased with the quality for the price, so sturdy and comfy!!”
Meanwhile, someone else asked: “Wow that setup is lovely. Can I ask what u do tho when it rains?”
To this, Helen explained “Have waterproof cover and also bring cushions in when know downpour due.
“Stored last seating set in loft over winter.
“If do get damp use mould and mildew spray and machine wash on 30c.”
Another user questioned: “How did you hang your bulb string lights please?”
To which Helen revealed “Used copper pipe attached to fencing then nailed it to the pipe.
“Needs to be a fairly thick pipe. First one used then bent so got a thicker one.”
