I swiped the shelves of air fresheners at Wilko – trolls call me selfish & ask why I need so much but I’m delighted
THERE’S no feeling quite like nabbing yourself a bargain – especially when you least expect it.
So it’s little surprise that one delighted bargain hunter named Lewis Jamie Edkins took to money-saving Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK to share his impressive smellies haul from Wilko.
However, the post has since divided opinion online, with some people branding the bargain hunter “selfish” for swiping the shelves clean.
He penned: “Wilko today, cost about £30.”
The image features over 42 products – from apple cider scented plug ins to room sprays and even candles.
The post has since garnered a whopping 1,400 likes and over 600 comments, with very mixed reviews.
“Good to see you left some for someone else!” wrote one.
A second penned: “Fair play to you…but why?”

A third asked: “Who’s got £30 to spend on smellies?”
Meanwhile, a fourth commented: “What happens if they are further reduced next week…will you buy more? This is why the shelves in the stores are empty.”
Elsewhere, others urged Lewis to ignore the haters and admitted they would’ve done the same had they stumbled upon the bargains.
“It’s his money to spend, so he spent it, haters gonna hate,” one person wrote.
Another agreed: “You don’t know if these are gifts or he has a large family.
“It’s no one’s damn business either way!
“Get up early and go find a bargain for yourself.
“If it’s not them it’ll be someone else!”
A further enthused: “Good for you! Nobody NEEDS any of this stuff.
“So kudos to you and pipe down everyone saying leave some for others.
“It’s just air fresheners ffs.”
And one more added: “Well done. I’d have done the same myself!!”
