Home Bargains shoppers are stocking up on £5.99 holiday essential – it can help you skip luggage fees
HOME Bargains shoppers have been rushing to buy a £5.99 holiday essential that is perfect for short stays and skipping luggage fees.
Summer is almost here and Brits are wasting no time in preparing for their next trip abroad by picking up a fresh under seat cabin bag.
With airlines charging more each year for suitcases and anything that doesn’t qualify as hand luggage, holidaymakers are searching for the best ways to overcome the dilemma.
But that usually leads them on to cabin bags, which can be taken on a plane for free at one per person.
Home Bargains are now selling a Bordlite Under Seat Cabin Bag, in dark grey or light grey, for less than £6.
Perfect for weekend getaways, city breaks and short business trips, it can easily fit underneath your seat or in the overhead lockers.
In the product description, it’s mentioned that the cabin bag has carry handles with velcro grip, two side compartments, two mesh pockets and a 20l capacity.
There’s even a strap so you can whack it over your shoulder as you’re breezing through the airport.
And its durable woven shower proof polyester material means it can withstand all kinds of conditions.
The bag’s dimensions are approximately 40 x 20 x 25cm.
However, it’s important to note that different airlines have different rules surrounding the size of cabin bags.
Therefore, it’s always best to check with your airline before you fly.
At just £5.99, though, Home Bargains shoppers have been left very happy with such an incredible deal.
One person said: “Bought one of these earlier in the year, was great for a few flights and a hospital stay.”
Another added: “These are reasonable quality for the money and no, they do not go ‘straight to landfill’ after one use.”
A third commented: “Took it to Paris recently with Ryanair and no issues at all. Holds a good amount for a weekend away!”
Those buying online from the Home Bargains website will have to pay a delivery fee of £3.95, taking the total of your order to £9.94.
Shoppers are also racing to Primark to pick up a holiday essential that will have your “summer prayers answered”.
If you’re sick of spending hot summer days wrestling with uncomfortable strapless bras that won’t stay up, then the fast-fashion store may have just found you the answer.
Primark has also sent its customers into a frenzy with yet another holiday essential that costs just £1.
The clothing brand gave viewers a look at it’s Essential Flat Flip Flops via a video posted to the official Primark TikTok account, boasting eight different colours including light pink and turquoise.
