B&M shoppers spot new garden collection, including picnic essentials, hanging chairs & candles – with prices from £1.50
WITH summer just around the corner, it’s time to give our gardens a makeover – and if you’re looking to do so on a budget, B&M is the place to visit.
The discount retailer, which opened 17 new stores earlier this year, has proven to be a major hit amongst green-fingered Brits, as they race to spruce up their outdoor spaces.
One of them, only known as TikTok user CJ Home Life, took to the social media giant to show off just some of the purse-friendly garden finds she’d stumbled across in her B&M.
The delighted shopper, CJ revealed in the video, was so impressed with the new collection, she said the garden centre ”did not disappoint”.
Whether you’re after chic outdoor mirrors or affordable candles for hosting a party, the discount retailer offers just about anything you’d need for a garden makeover on the cheap.
The prices start from a mere £1 and customers can choose between a wide range of products, including a Citronella Fragranced Candle in a chic pot for £5.
There’s also a Hanging Chair, slashed from £30 to £25, and this woven chair can be hung from the ceiling, tree, or any other sturdy overhang that can support your weight.
The popular store, which recently sent fans into a frenzy over 10p pet essentials, has also cut the price of rattan garden furniture, such as the Tete-A-Tete set for two selling for £120.
Adding mirrors in the gardens has also been a hot trend recently, and if you’re finally wanting to jump on it too, B&M offers numerous fabulous picks.
Whether you want to keep it simple and opt for a round mirror or a window-style design, the retailer has just about any option in store.
There are also plenty of party essentials for those looking to host this summer, including chic glassware for £1.50, as well as a huge jug – perfect for mixing a fruit punch, and an outdoor cutlery holder.
”I want to be in my hosting era,” chuckled the home interiors super fanatic in her clip.
Other purse-friendly finds included a large plate with a black palm design selling for £3 and a more fun plate in the shape of an exotic leaf – a must for serving mini canapés, CJ reckoned.
Of course, no party is complete without refreshing drinks – whether that’s an Aperol Spritz or a tasty mocktail – and B&M have come to rescue with a wide range of glasses, retailing around £2 each.
Whilst your guests are busy chatting away, don’t forget to protect the whipped up food from hungry flies and other insects using B&M’s Pop-Up Food Cover.
Ideal for picnics and al fresco dining, this party essentials retails for £10.
The bargain retailer also hasn’t forgotten about avid gardeners who’d like to add some greenery to their outdoor spaces – and their Olive Tree has already become a massive hit amongst customers.
