SHOPPERS are racing to B&Q to snap up a huge garden bargain for just £25.
With summer now nearing its end, many retailers are slashing the price of garden furniture.
And while it may seem silly to buy outdoor furniture just as colder weather is coming, shoppers have been able to secure some tremendous deals on products they will be able to use for the rest of this summer, and for many summers to come.
Posting to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group, one woman excitedly showed off her mega bargain.
She said: “Got this huge gorgeous parasol from B&Q Middlesbrough, reduced from £95 to £25!
“Also a 35kg parasol base reduced from £60 to £20!
“I only went in for a bathroom door handle!
“Also the lovely chaise sofa was from Argos reduced from £360 to £160!
“Right place, right time!! Love ‘em!”
Attached to the post was a huge white garden parasol, which perfectly matches a large rattan outdoor sofa set.
The post was flooded with comments from garden lover, impressed by the bargain.
One person said: “You did good! Love it.”
A second person said: “Fabulous!”
A third added: “Absolutely gorgeous.”

How to upcycle garden furniture in 3 steps
There’s really no need to spend a fortune on new garden furniture.
Rebecca Miller, Fabulous’ Associate Editor and gardening enthusiast has shared her tips to transforming grotty second-hand furniture into pieces that look brand new.
“Recycling centres, dump shops, charity shops and Facebook Marketplace are brilliant places to pick up second hand items for cheap.
And all you need to do is have a spare afternoon to spruce them up – and it’s something you can get your kids involved in!
Clean
Everything looks better after a good scrub.
If in doubt, opt for a simple washing-up liquid and warm water solution, and get to work removing all the grime and dirt.
If the piece of furniture can withstand some pressure, why not pressure wash it?
Leave it to dry, then you can see what you’re dealing with.
Fix-up
If the item of furniture is a little wonky, or you’re unsure how sturdy it is, take a moment to check all the fixtures and either replace them or tighten them up.
Colour
The quickest way to transform a piece of furniture is with a lick of paint.
When choosing a new colour, base it on shades that will fit with your existing garden design and plants – but most importantly, pick a colour that will bring a smile to your face.”
Argos customers can now pick up the set for just £290, marked down from £580.
Or if you’re planning to have a larger crowd over for a summer barbeque, the Habitat Santorini 6 Seater Rattan Effect Garden Sofa Set is also on offer.
The outdoor corner set is currently available for just £400, reduced from £800.
Shoppers have also spotted a huge sale in Dunelm, with one Facebook user posting: “Better get yourself to Dunelm..75% off! Insane bargain finds.”
The Facebook user included pictures of some of the garden buys on offer.
