‘Code orange’, it might still be summer but Home Bargains fans are going nuts for the Autumn range
IT may only be July but some shoppers are already getting excited for Autumn.
This summer has been a bit of a washout so far in Scotland – and many of us are still waiting for the sun to arrive.
But Home Bargains fans are delighted to be getting a sneak peak of the cosy Autumn range – which is already started appearing in some stores.
Posting on the Home Bargains Appreciation Society Facebook page – which boasts 171,000 members – one shopper shared snaps of candles, blankets and pumpkin shaped tablewear, gushing: “Code orange!”
The store has teased the full range, saying it’s coming soon with some staples already available on the Home Bargains website.
And looking at what’s already available, the adorable household items are likely to fly off shelves.
Included in the range is a gorgeous rattan basket emblazoned with the slogan ‘hello autumn’ – which is priced at just £5.99.
Meanwhile, there are pretty pumpkin shaped candles in white and orange as well as autumnal door wreaths, decorated with pine cones, at just £9.99.
One item sure to be a best seller is a velvety soft cosy cushion – which comes in red and green – which is a bargain at £5.99.
Home Bargains fans can’t wait to get their hands on the range when it starts to appear in stores near them.
Commenting on the dismal weather, one said: “Need them now, summer has abandoned us this year.”
And another wrote: “Can’t wait. My favourite time of year.”
And a third fan said: “I have the cosy cushion already, can’t wait to find the rest.”
If you’re not ready to let go of summer just yet, the store’s fans are also rushing to buy a pretty garden solar light that gives your garden an “exquisite” glow up on a budget
One savvy shopper took to social media to show off her lovely find, leaving many open-mouthed.
Posting on the Home Bargains Appreciation Society Facebook page – which boasts 171,000 members – she said: “Lotus flower solar light back in stock.”
How to bag a bargain
SUN Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to find a cut-price item and bag a bargain…
Sign up to loyalty schemes of the brands that you regularly shop with.
Big names regularly offer discounts or special lower prices for members, among other perks.
Sales are when you can pick up a real steal.
Retailers usually have periodic promotions that tie into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends, so keep a lookout and shop when these deals are on.
Sign up to mailing lists and you’ll also be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too.
When buying online, always do a search for money off codes or vouchers that you can use vouchercodes.co.uk and myvouchercodes.co.uk are just two sites that round up promotions by retailer.
Scanner apps are useful to have on your phone. Trolley.co.uk app has a scanner that you can use to compare prices on branded items when out shopping.
Bargain hunters can also use B&M’s scanner in the app to find discounts in-store before staff have marked them out.
And always check if you can get cashback before paying which in effect means you’ll get some of your money back or a discount on the item.
