Home Bargains shoppers rush to pick up new ‘gorgeous’ garden lights range that will transform your space this summer
GARDENERS are racing to Home Bargains as the discount store drops its latest must-have lights perfect for summer nights.
Shoppers are getting their outdoor spaces ready for summer with Home Bargains’ brand new range of solar lights — and they’re already causing a stir online.
There’s a Firefly LED Starburst Solar Stake Light 2 Pack for just £5.99, perfect for adding a touch of sparkle to flower beds or pathways.
Or, shoppers can grab a Firefly Firefly Stake Solar Lights 2 Pack, also £5.99, which gently sway in the breeze while giving off a warm glow or a pop of colour.
But it’s the Firefly 3 Pack Hot Air Balloon Solar Light for £7.99 that’s really got people talking.
These charming lights automatically glow at dusk and feature a stunning flame-effect LED for a magical vibe in your garden.
These popular lights are currently out of stock, but they could still be available in store, so it is best to check your local Home Bargains.
Each of the lights in the range come with rechargeable batteries and automatically turn on as night falls — with no wires or fuss.
If you’re looking to give your garden a glow-up this summer, you’ll want to be quick though — once they’re gone, they’re gone.
One eagle-eyed shopper spotted the bargain buys and posted about them in the popular Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group — sparking a frenzy among fellow bargain hunters.
One shopper raved: “I got the hot air balloons online last week — they look so good with how they flicker.”
Another said: “I’ve got all the different balloon ones and my garden looks like a balloon festival now. Looks amazing at night and well worth the money.”
A third happy customer added: “Finally found these in my local — so happy xx.”
But not everyone was impressed.
One shopper warned: “I got the starburst ones and they only worked for two days then they stopped lifting up.”
Another said: “Be careful with the hot air balloon ones — I bought some, opened it, and it came apart in my hands.”
You’ll find the lights in-store at your local Home Bargains — but you can also browse the full range online.
It’s always worth shopping around when buying garden gear as you might find a cheaper alternative elsewhere.
Websites like Trolley.co.uk and PriceSpy let you compare thousands of products across different retailers to find the best price.
A quick search on Google Shopping can also show how much other retailers are charging for similar items.

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.
