Garden owners can snap up Dunelm's ‘fabulous' sell-out egg chair for HALF PRICE as stock finally returns
A best-selling egg chair that keeps selling out has been restocked at Dunelm. The unique Santorini egg chair has had a huge 50% discount, which has seen the price cut from £249 to £124.50 in the sale. 1 Santorini Egg Chair £124.50 (was £249) The garden is the perfect place to relax, unwind and soak up the sun - if you've got the right set-up. Amidst the current hot weather, there's even more of a reason to invest in your garden, and egg chairs have become increasingly popular. Earlier this month our money team spotted a similar deal on a Homebase egg chair that's been reduced from £199.99 to £99.99. Dunelm has put a twist on the look that you usually get with this style of chair, replacing plain wood or rattan with a choice of vibrant colours. Two out of four of the colours were discounted, but it's the jade mist shade - a stylish turquoise and white design - that's back in stock. Egg chairs are often costly, so if you were hesitant to buy one full price, the £124.50 discount may tempt you for the sunny months ahead. The Santorini Egg Chair has a spacious-looking seat, with a thick, padded cushion to sink into when you're enjoying a drink or curling up with a book. Not all egg chairs are hanging, but with this one you can gently swing as you kick back and relax in the garden. It's not a new addition to Dunelm, but it's remained a bestseller, and has sold out several times. With the UK experiencing a period of hot weather at the moment, the stock has been replenished just in time for the heatwave. As we all know however, it's always essential to be prepared for less favourable conditions. Thankfully the egg chair is weather-resistant thanks to its powder-coated steel frame, which is known to be durable. The egg chairs aren't the only garden furniture deals in the Dunelm sale, as there are hundreds to choose from before the sale ends at midnight on Sunday (June 22). best solar lights for the garden to add to the cosy atmosphere in the evenings. To create a tropical vibe on a budget, a pair of patio palm trees now costs £20 down from £39.99 at Gardening Express. Flymo lawn mower now has 20% off at Amazon.

Is Dollar Tree a Buy, Sell, or Hold in 2025?
Shares of Dollar Tree have rallied amid solid sales trends at the start of 2025. The company is selling off its struggling Family Dollar brand as part of a broader restructuring effort. An improving earnings growth outlook could be key for the stock to keep climbing. 10 stocks we like better than Dollar Tree › Dollar Tree (NASDAQ: DLTR) is making a lot of cents for its investors. The discount retailer is emerging as a compelling comeback story following a disappointing period in 2023 and 2024. Steady demand from bargain-hunting shoppers, alongside ongoing operating efficiency efforts, has driven an improved company outlook. Not surprisingly, the stock is up an impressive 30% year to date. The headline numbers are encouraging, but are they enough to sustain the stock price rally? More importantly, what should an investor do at this point? Let's examine whether shares of Dollar Tree are a buy, sell, or hold now. Dollar Tree stands out with a simple, value-driven business model in a crowded retail landscape where consumers have countless options. The company offers a large assortment of products, including household essentials, snacks, and seasonal items, nearly all priced at $1.25. This focus on low-cost convenience has attracted a loyal customer base, with the company now boasting more than 9,000 stores in the United States and Canada. However, its Family Dollar brand had been struggling with a broader merchandising approach featuring apparel and higher-priced items, dragging down companywide sales and profitability in recent years. In response, Dollar Tree announced the sale of its Family Dollar chain for $1 billion to a private equity group, with the deal expected to close in the coming months. The transaction comes at an ideal time amid uncertainties from proposed U.S. trade policy changes, providing the company with a significant cash infusion while streamlining core operations. Dollar Tree estimates that tariffs on imported goods from countries like China and Mexico could add $20 million in monthly costs. Fortunately, solid sales trends are helping mitigate short-term earnings pressure. In the first quarter (ended March 31), net revenue climbed 11.6% year over year, driven by a 5.4% increase in comparable sales and 148 new store openings. Management highlighted strong performance in discretionary merchandise categories, which saw a 4.6% annual sales increase, supporting operating margins and delivering adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.26, up 2.4% from the prior year. Dollar Tree expects operating momentum to continue, guiding for full-year comparable sales growth of 3% to 5%. The EPS target of $5.15 to $5.65, at the midpoint, is slightly below 2024's $5.51 due to tariff costs and Family Dollar sale expenses, yet still reflects a sustainable foundation, addressing Wall Street concerns of deeper deterioration. Investors confident that Dollar Tree is just beginning its path toward more consistent, profitable growth have compelling reasons to buy or hold the stock for the long term. The stock's valuation also looks attractive, trading at a forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 18 -- well below the average of closer to 25 from 2020 through 2023 under more normalized conditions. By this measure, Dollar Tree stock could still be undervalued, even after its latest price surge. Selling off the unprofitable Family Dollar brand appears to have been a necessary strategic step for Dollar Tree, but the long-term success of the company's restructured profile remains far from certain. Dollar Tree faces intense competition in the discount retail space from larger rivals such as Dollar General and Walmart, all vying to capture increasing wallet share from budget-conscious consumers. Without a major digital strategy, Dollar Tree could fall further behind as e-commerce plays an increasingly important role in the convenience segment. Economic uncertainties also loom large. Should the trade war escalate, or U.S. unemployment rise sharply, Dollar Tree would face major headwinds against sales estimates, forcing a reset of expectations and possibly driving down the stock price. Investors who believe Dollar Tree will gradually lose market share and struggle to expand earnings may consider selling the stock or avoiding it for now. Dollar Tree as an investment isn't perfect, but I'm optimistic the company has planted the roots for a brighter future. The business should benefit from further evidence of comparable-sales growth over the next few quarters, with the bullish case centered on the potential for earnings to exceed expectations. Don't expect the stock to climb in a straight line higher, but I predict Dollar Tree will reward shareholders willing to stomach near-term volatility.

Nobody Thought a VPN This Good Could Be This Cheap
Obtaining a VPN at a budget-friendly price often means making compromises. Well, not with PIA. This renowned provider has significantly reduced its prices, making it the most affordable VPN currently available. You won't believe the discount the provider has come up with. It's an 82% discount with two free months for the biennial plans. When you do the math, you save $255 compared to the monthly plan. Sounds unreal, but it's true. Save $255 on PIA VPN Today PIA VPN $255 Discount Explained Private Internet Access was never too pricey to begin with. However, its monthly plan at $11.99 per month isn't remarkably affordable. Now, imagine spending this amount of money for 26 months straight: sounds ludicrous! That's why PIA has introduced a discount that slashes the price by 82% and includes two free months. As a result, you'll spend only $56.94 for the first 26 months. Even after the initial offer, PIA will charge you this much annually! This still results in ample savings compared to the standard monthly price. Private Internet Access hasn't forgotten to include a 30-day money-back guarantee, either. This enables a prompt refund if you're unsatisfied. Antivirus + Dedicated IP Discounts As part of its flash sale, the VPN has discounted its antivirus and dedicated IP addresses. Its competitive antivirus now costs $34.80 for two years, while a dedicated IP costs $60 for two years. It's worth noting that PIA Antivirus is primarily designed for use on PCs. However, its dedicated IP addresses can be used on a plethora of devices. PIA offers them in 25 locations, so there's plenty to choose from if you decide. As a gift, Private Internet Access includes 500 GB of pCloud for free for a year. We reviewed pCloud and were thoroughly impressed. At under $57 for 24 months, PIA offers one of the top VPN packages you can find. Features Rundown There's not much you can buy at $2 per month, except if you shop on Temu. PIA doesn't skimp on necessary VPN features, despite its nearly free price. You'll get unlimited device protection and a no-log policy, for example. PIA also introduced MultiHop, which doubles your encryption. People love using the VPN for streaming and torrenting. Meanwhile, it's phenomenal for those on the dark web who seek full onion over VPN support. Private Internet Access is compatible with nearly all devices, and each app version offers robust security. From 256-bit GCM encryption to IP and DNS leak protection, you can expect everything in this neat package. Bear in mind that Private Internet Access periodically alters its price. This is a unique opportunity to enjoy a world-class VPN and spend peanuts. See the offer at Private Internet Access

'Spectacular for the price!': I tested the budget-friendly robot vacuum that rivals models twice the price - and it's 56% off right now
If, like me, vacuuming is the chore you dread the most, then this affordable robot vacuum may be the dust-busting solution you've been looking for. Designed to keep your home spotless without you having to lift a finger, the Lubluelu L15 Plus from AliExpress is a two-in-one vacuum and mop robot that claims to make keeping your spaces spick and span easier than ever. So, I put it to the test. Lubluelu L15 Plus Robot Vacuum Whether you're juggling work and kids or simply hate dragging out the vacuum cleaner, the Lubluelu L15 Plus Robot Vacuum could be the game-changing gadget your home has been missing. Yours for just £132.19 reduced from £329.94 (a huge 59 per cent discount), this impressive robot vacuum is app-controlled and utterly easy to use, designed to vacuum and mop in one for a spotless clean that requires zero effort. £132.19 (save £197.75) Shop If, like me, you've ever dreamed of never having to clean again, then a robot vacuum like this one may be the solution you've been looking for. And better still? It won't break the bank, either. Whether you're juggling work and kids or simply hate dragging out the vacuum cleaner, the Lubluelu L15 Plus Robot Vacuum could be the game-changing gadget your home's been missing - and with rave reviews flooding in of its impressive suction and reliable design, it's no wonder it's flying off shelves. 'This robot vacuum is truly spectacular for the price,' raved one impressed five-star reviewer. 'I purchased a different model four years ago for the same amount, and it lacked many of the advanced features found here. 'The lidar mapping technology is excellent; it quickly and accurately mapped my four downstairs rooms in only 20 minutes before getting straight to work. I appreciate the ability to schedule cleaning times, and its return to the docking station is consistently flawless.' Yours for just £132.19 reduced from £329.94 (a huge 59 per cent discount), the Lubluelu L15 Plus is app-controlled and utterly easy to use, designed to vacuum and mop in one for a spotless clean that requires zero effort. Ideal for carpets and hard floors alike, the robot vacuum works hard to keep your spaces clean, boasting powerful 5000PA suction that makes light work of dirt, debris and pet hair, while the mop mode tackles dirty floors with ease. Whether you're cleaning the whole room or just the edges, you can pick and choose just how you want your clean to go. The vacuum will even increase the suction power to maximum when a carpet is detected, ensuring no muck is left behind. Connecting seamlessly to your home Wi-Fi, the Lubluelu L15 Plus can be controlled using the easy-to-use app, which enables you to schedule, monitor in real-time, choose specifics of your cleaning, amend your home map, and so much more. Got spaces you don't want your vac to go? It's easy to set up no-go zones to ensure your vacuum avoids areas such as pet bowls, cords, delicate rugs or even specific rooms – especially ideal when you're using it to mop hard floors. The vacuum is suitable for big and small jobs alike, too, thanks to its huge 2L auto empty dock that automatically empties the collected dust and debris into an enclosed bag at the end of each clean and notifies you when the bag is full. Cleaning has never been so, well, clean. But what did I think of the Lubluelu L15 Plus Robot Vacuum? App and setup Setup with this vacuum was incredibly easy, and it came with three-quarters of a tank of charge, which meant I could get straight to work after configuring the app – which took minutes. Instantly, the little vacuum got to work mapping out my floorplan, working out each cleanable nook and cranny in a matter of minutes and translating them onto the map for me to see. Each cleaning space, or 'room', was neatly labelled for easy control. Because that's one thing about this app-controlled vacuum – it's all incredibly easy to use. Whether you're scheduling cleans, creating no-go areas, cleaning specific rooms, playing with suction levels, or even switching up the mop-wetness levels, everything is simple and user-friendly. Vacuum I sent the little vacuum out first to tackle my hard floor layout that hadn't been hoovered in a few weeks, so it was a reasonably tough first mission. Despite being simply on 'Standard' suction mode rather than 'Strong' or 'Max', it made light work of dust, debris and hair, leaving my floors totally clean - and I didn't even have to pick up my handheld vacuum. Skirting around chair and table legs with ease (which I wasn't expecting it to be able to do), it cleaned in the places that even I find hard to reach, like under the sofa and coffee tables. This is all thanks to its fairly slim, low-to-the-ground design, which slips under furniture easily. It's worth noting that while the vac is low to the ground, it's not small in general, which feels at odds with its 250ml capacity. It's quieter than I expected too, but probably just a touch too loud to ignore if you're watching TV in the same room with it. Far quieter than my current vacuum, which costs twice the price! Now, you do have to make sure that any wires, blankets and shoelaces are tucked away, or it will suck them up and get all confused, but I now have a little pre-vac ritual where such things are tucked away for easy cleaning. Dock After each clean you send it out on, the vacuum returns to its dock and empties by itself, which makes a noise akin to a proper vacuum for about 30 seconds. Not too bad. One small issue is that the dock requires lots of space around it for the vacuum to successfully find it to charge and empty, which I don't necessarily have. Thus, I have to move my table a bit in order for it to find its home. Mop The mop function of this little vacuum seriously impressed me, simply using water to scrub your floor clean. It was easy to fill the water tank, and even after mopping my entire flat, the water tank was only half empty. You can choose how wet you'd like it to mop, from 'Low' to 'High, as well as what I chose – 'Medium', which left some slight wet residue but dried very quickly. While it wasn't quite able to tackle my larger floor stains super easily, with a spritz of surface spray on each heavier mark a few minutes before, the vacuum was able to clean them away successfully. Thus, while you shouldn't put detergents in the water tank, you could easily pop some on the floor for a deeper clean. And once I was finished and my floors were spotless? I simply removed the Velcro mop head and chucked it in the washing machine. What could be easier? Final verdict I'll admit, when I saw the low price of the Lubluelu L15 Plus Robot Vacuum I didn't think it would work anywhere near as well as it did. But, truthfully, I'm so incredibly impressed by this vacuum that I can't see myself without it now. Quickly and efficiently, it vacuums, sweeps and mops deftly, and comes with a very user-friendly app, sleek design and reasonably quiet performance; all for just over £130. It's a real bargain, if you ask me, and a total five out of five. After your own little household cleaner for less? Snap up your own Lubluelu L15 Plus Robot Vacuum at a reduced price here at
