Shopper fills their car boot with Nestlé cereal box bowls from B&M, snapped up for just 50p each
The discovery was made at a B&M store in Northampton, and the bargain quickly caught the attention of other shoppers online.
Fans flocked to the comments to share their excitement.
Another warned: 'These were recalled in my store.'
A third added: 'Need to visit the place.'
Others pointed out that prices may vary by location.
One user said: 'In mine they're 89p but still cheap.'
But it's not just cereal getting snapped up.
B&M has been rolling out a wave of red-hot deals lately.
A stunning red oriental lily, priced at just £4.50, has been a garden favourite thanks to its strong fragrance and ability to return bigger each year.
Travel lovers have been grabbing a £7 cabin bag that's been praised for fitting perfectly under plane seats and meeting airline size rules.
Homeware fans haven't been left out either.
A candle-in-a-cup dupe for a £24 Zara Home version is flying off shelves at just £4. Shoppers say the scent is nearly identical.
Meanwhile, a giant inflatable rocking toy that was originally £50 has been reduced to just £1 in some stores — with one buyer calling it the 'bargain of the year.'
Another viral find is a retro-style lava lamp with built-in Bluetooth speaker — once £20, now scanning for only 50p in some stores.
Shoppers are urging others to use the B&M scanner app to uncover hidden discounts, as shelf prices often don't match what's at the till.
One mum shared her tip: head to stores midweek, especially Wednesday mornings, when many new markdowns appear.

Half of Gen Z now prioritise exercise over socialising – preferring to share workout selfies than pics with mates

Read below to see what else the poll revealed NO PAIN NO GAIN Half of Gen Z now prioritise exercise over socialising – preferring to share workout selfies than pics with mates Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A POLL of 2,000 adults found 22 per cent of 18-28-year-olds would rather share a post-workout selfie online than a picture of them out with their mates. But 22 per cent feel there aren't enough venues catering to their clean-living aspirations, leaving them frustrated (40 per cent) and lonely (24 per cent).

Despite exercise taking priority, 34 per cent say the gym is their least favourite place to socialise. To help, energy drink maker Reign Storm is launching The Energy Bar on June 24, the first venue of its kind to cater to an audience seeking out 'clean' socialising spaces. With a clean menu, areas for warming up, cooling down and light cardio, and fitness-wear dress code, the trial space could provide an insight into the future of the city's bar scene. Rob Adkins, from the brand, said: 'Pubs and bars are awesome, especially in British summertime, but the experience becomes a lot less enjoyable if you don't want to drink alcohol. 'Our research found that UK adults are struggling to find venues that align with their clean-living aspirations, and we think it's time to change that. 'The Reign Storm Energy Bar is a one-of-a-kind venue that fuses the clean-living priorities of a gym space, with the social benefits of a pub.' The study also revealed the top things adults want from a social venue, with 46 per cent longing for a space quiet enough to talk. While 45 per cent want space to chill, 40 per cent look for good food and drink, and 29 per cent want a cost-effective space. More than one in five (22 per cent) want somewhere that's good for them mentally and physically, 19 per cent want 'clean' food and drink options and 18 per cent just want 'vibes' 'No longer about having a drink' It also emerged that reasons for not socialising at the pub included worries about limited alcohol-free options (20 per cent) and the lack of clean or healthier options in general (16 per cent). A third (34 per cent) said it's too expensive and 21 per cent claimed going to the pub makes them anxious, according to the figures. The spokesperson from Reign Storm added: 'For lots of people, socialising is no longer just about having a drink - it's about sharing experiences. 'People want to be able to socialise in a healthy way, and what's healthier than the gym? 'But there are lots of problems in trying to get your social life up to date in the gym, so a space where you can be clean and chatty is very much needed.' It comes after nearly four in 10 Brits are open to a career move - with half of these actively searching for their "calling." And beer-drinking blokes tend to be more fertile and father more children, a study shows.

Five ways to keep your kids cool in the heat IT can be really difficult - and costly - to keep kids cool when it's hot outside. But Fabulous Digital Senior Reporter and mum-of-two Sarah Bull shares five ways to help, and they won't break the budget either. Strip them off It might sound simple, but stripping kids off at home can really help them regulate their temperature when it's warm outside. Just remember to regularly apply suncream, as more of their skin will be exposed to the sun. Cool down bedrooms before nighttime When it's hot outside, it can be difficult for kids to go to sleep - especially if their bedroom feels like an oven. If you have a room that's not in direct sunshine, keep the windows open to let in a breeze. It's also a good idea to keep the curtains closed, to prevent the room from heating up. Wear a hat Another simple technique, but one that really works. Make sure that if your kids are playing outside, they've got a hat on. It keeps their face and head shielded from the sun, and also helps if you've got a little one who struggles with bright sunlight. If your tot struggles to keep a hat on, try one with a strap that goes under the chin to help. Avoid the car The car can be one of the hottest places during a heatwave, and often takes a long time to cool down. If you have the option, it's better to stay at home rather than taking kids out anywhere in a hot car. Stay hydrated This is always important, but even more so in a heatwave. Make sure you're regularly reminding your kids to have a drink, and top them up with cool liquids whenever you can. Use ice too to ensure it's as cold as it can possibly be. However, whilst we all love the sun, it can make us feel a little sticky and sweaty especially when trying to sleep at night. And we tested fans to keep you cool in the summer – the winner costs 1p an hour to run. Finally, from buying better bedding to keeping your PJs ON – here all the surprising ways to keep cool at night in a heatwave.

Major British bank with 14million customers is axing TEN branches this week – is one going near you?

A total of 23 branches are set to close this month CASHING OUT Major British bank with 14million customers is axing TEN branches this week – is one going near you? Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MAJOR British bank is set to axe a further ten branches this week. It comes after the provider closed ten branches last week as part of a nationwide reduction in services. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 A further ten Santander stores are set to close this week Credit: Getty 3 It comes amid a reported 6,300 bank closures since January 2015 Credit: Alamy Santander is one of just several major banks to be shutting shops country-wide in a decision that affects 14 million customers. The bank said that the closures were impacted by changing consumer habits, as more shoppers move online. A further ten branches are set to close this week, with a total of 23 closing throughout June. Santander closures this week The stores set to close this week are: Aberdare - June 24 Blackwood - June 23 Brecon - June 25 Cleveleys - June 23 Dungannon - June 23 Eltham - June 23 Glasgow LDHQ - June 24 Glasgow MX - June 23 Greenford - June 24 Magherafelt - June 24 A spokesperson for Santander said: "As customer behaviour changes, we are ensuring that our branches remain fit for the future. "Our new combination of full-service branches, alongside Work Cafés, counter-free branches and reduced hours branches, aims to provide the right balance between digital banking and face-to-face money management and guidance. "As a business, we must move with customers and balance our investment across all the places where we interact with customers, to deliver the very best for them now and in the future." With high streets on the decline, bank branches have been shutting at an alarming rate, with some campaigners concerned about the impact on vulnerable customers. Age UK is campaigning for banks to retain some in-person services, with four million older Brits unable to manage their finances online. Caroline Abrahams, charity director at Age UK, said: 'Physical spaces – whether a bank or building society branch, Banking Hub, or alternative suitable provision – must continue to exist so people can still carry out face-to-face tasks. "The disappearance of face-to-face banking risks cutting a significant minority of the older population out of an essential service, making it difficult if not impossible for them to manage their money and maintain their independence.' Popular bank with over 400 spots confirms it is shutting 18 branches in August – it follows 148 closures by rivals The ten closures are part of a wider reduction in Santander's in-person services. This includes the closure of 95 branches, and the conversion of 18 to "counter-free" service desks. Instead, customers can visit 73 new banking hubs set up across the UK to serve customers from all major banks. Just 349 branches will remain following the shake-up. It comes as several major banking providers have significantly reduced their in-person services. Consumer magazine Which? revealed that 6,300 bank and building societies have closed since January 2015 - an average of 53 per month. A total of 102 banks are set to close this month alone affecting major providers like Lloyds, Natwest and Halifax. Meanwhile, Nationwide has promised to keep its nearly 700 branches open until the start of 2028. Muir Mathieson, Nationwide's chief financial officer, recently said: 'The branches are thriving. 'We're seeing the number of people going into branches going up, and we think part of that increase is that there are fewer branches on the high street now that our competitors have closed theirs.'
