B&M shoppers rushing to buy ‘bargain’ garden essential scanning at the tills for £10 instead of £125
B&M shoppers are rushing to buy a “bargain” garden product scanning at the tills for £10 instead of £125.
Retailers often heavily slash prices on products to clear stock and it means you can pick up some absolute bargains.
One shopper recently found one such steal after heading to their local B&M branch.
They posted a photo of a Gazing Ball Water Feature on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group with a caption that read: “B&M was £125 down to £10.”
The original post has been liked over 300 times and dozens of shoppers say they’re keen to bag one of water features.
One said: “I would love one of these bargains that’s for sure,” while another added: “What a great find! I would love one of these.”
A third shopper simply said: “I want one.”
Bear in mind you might not be able to find the water feature for the £10 price point in your local B&M.
Retailers often slash prices dramatically like this to clear excess stock in individual branches.
Either way, you can find your local B&M branch by using the retailer’s store locator found on its website.
You just have to enter your town or postcode.
It appears the shopper realised the water feature was selling for £10 after checking the product on the B&M scanner app.
The tool can be downloaded for free on to your iPhone or Android and lets you see if an item’s price is cheaper than on the label.
You can download it off the App Store or Google Play.
Once you’ve opened up the app you just have to click the “scan” button at the bottom of the homepage.
It then brings up a camera which you can use to scan a product and find out its true price.
Of course, just because one B&M shopper has found a bargain for just £10, that doesn’t mean you can’t find something similar for cheaper elsewhere.
Websites like Trolley, Price Runner and Price Spy let you compare prices on thousands of products.
Meanwhile, the Google Shopping tab is a quick way of scanning the internet to see what retailers are selling the same product for.
On this occasion, no other retailers are selling the exact same product as B&M.
B&Q has a similar one, but it costs £87 – £77 more expensive than B&M’s.
