One bargain hunter couldn't believe her luck after she bagged a £60 wooden storage unit for a quid.
This works out at a huge £59 saving - and it was all thanks to the B&M scanner.
The light wooden furniture has four sections - with two open shelves for photographs, books, candles, and two closed off with decorative wooden panelling.
There's also plenty of room for a lamp or vase of flowers on top, making it the perfect buy to elevate your living room or bedroom.
She also picked up a £25 wooden bedside table - which comes with one drawer and angled legs - for £1 too.
And she took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, which boasts 2.6million followers, to inform others about the jaw-dropping price reductions.
Alongside pictures of her buys, which she hailed as "stunning", she wrote: ''£1 each.''
Another shopper revealed she managed to bag a £12 herringbone side table for £1.
She gushed: "First bargain using the B&M scanner only £1."
And their fellow bargain hunters were just as impressed by the cheap buys, as one cried: "We need to go."
I went to B&M for a radiator cover & came out with £230 of furniture for £40 - here's how I nabbed such epic bargains
"I love these", said someone else.
A third wrote: "Need to look!!"
"That's fantastic", added a fourth.
Meanwhile, a fifth instructed: "Go now."
If you're keen to get your hands on this furniture, you'll have to be quick - and download the B&M scanner.
The scanner lets you see if the item's price is cheaper than advertised on the shop shelf.

Products that are typically discounted are seasonal items and old stock that B&M is trying to shift, or they're labelled "big brands" and "big savings".
How to use the B&M scanner app
Using the B&M app will help you bag plenty of bargains on your next shopping trip.
The app is free and easy to use.
Here's how you can join the bargain hunt.

Once you've installed it on your device, click on the option labelled "more" on the bottom, right-hand side of the app home page.
You'll then find an option that says "barcode scanner".
Click on this and you'll open a camera screen.
Use the camera to hover over the barcode of the product you wish to check.
If the price comes up as lower, take it to the cash desk and it will automatically scan at the lower price.
You don't need to sign up for the B&M app to use the barcode scanner.

Sky Q replacement update as new £6 a month TV service is launched to lure satellite viewers

A brand new Sky Glass Air device comes out next week Q UP Sky Q replacement update as new £6 a month TV service is launched to lure satellite viewers Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) IT'S taking Sky "much longer" than the company originally expected to shift satellite fans to streaming, a TV expert has revealed. Sky has been pushing ahead with TV that relies on the internet instead of a satellite dish since 2021. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 New Sky Glass Air starts at £6 per month Next week, yet another Sky Glass model goes on sale, while the beloved Sky Q satellite box hasn't seen a hardware update since 2016. Sky Glass Air is a thinner model without the built in soundbar that's cheaper than the previous models, in a bid to win people over. The firm says 90 per cent of new customers opt for Sky Glass or Sky Stream - but winning over Sky Q loyalists seems to be tricky. Paolo Pescatore, an expert for PP Foresight, previously told The Sun it is "highly unlikely" Sky will ever release a new satellite box. In an update, he says the arrival of a more affordable slimmer model "should strongly resonate with customers" but it "does show a clear razor sharp focus on new sales". "The majority of its existing subscribers are still on the tried and trusted Sky Q platform which relies on a satellite dish," he explained. "Converting this base is taking the company much longer than it originally expected. "On this basis Sky Glass has not been as successful as the company had anticipated. "Despite this, the move in general made sense given the direction of travel with what I'm calling the big TV switch off; likely to happen now in the 2030s and to defend against the rise and threat of streamers by allowing Sky to control the experience and manage customer relationships which it has successfully been able to do. "Also and more importantly, it has allowed Sky to secure retail distribution agreements for products like Sky Stream with others." Discover new features on Sky TV that make it even easier to find favourite shows He warned Sky is still "hugely reliant" on its core and lucrative Sky Q base which it "must avoid upsetting as there are a slew of cheaper alternative TV platforms and services in the market". Last year, Sky signed a contract extension with satellite operator SES that takes the service up to 2029. Sky Q's biggest difference is its ability to record on a box, whereas on Sky Glass it's recorded to the cloud. This means on Sky Q you will always have something to watch if there's ever an outage. And a limited number of programmes and movies can't be recorded to the cloud because of rights issues - whereas on Sky Q you can record what you want. The upside of Sky Glass and Sky Stream recording is that there is no storage limit unlike Sky Q.

B&M slashes price of privacy fence decoration to just £1.50 – and it will give your garden a perfect summer glow-up

GARDEN GLOW B&M slashes price of privacy fence decoration to just £1.50 – and it will give your garden a perfect summer glow-up B&M has dropped the price of garden wall decor to just £1.50 — a budget-friendly way to brighten your fence this summer. Shoppers across the UK can now snap up the Palm House Leaf Stem Metal Wall Art for just £1.50 in-store – down from £3 – giving their gardens a budget-friendly glow-up just in time for summer. 3 It's suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, making it a versatile decor piece for all kinds of spaces Credit: bmstores 3 The item can be found in B&M stores across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland Credit: bmstores Available nationwide while stocks last, this chic green metal plaque adds a pop of colour and character to any outdoor wall or fence. It's suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, making it a versatile decor piece for all kinds of spaces. The item can be found in B&M stores across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Customers are encouraged to use the store locator tool online to check stock before heading out, as availability may vary between locations. The Palm House Leaf design is part of a decorative trio, each bringing a leafy, tropical vibe to your space. Whether you're creating a lush retreat or just want to hide that tired old fence, this bit of wall art does the job for less than the price of a coffee. According to the manufacturer, it 'brings fun and charm to your garden' and is perfect for adding character without the need for heavy DIY work. And it's not just experts who love the look. Homeowners are turning to garden wall decor to create more inviting outdoor spaces, with wall plaques now trending as an easy fix to dull garden walls. Ideal Home suggests that items like this are a 'super-easy way of brightening up a dreary outdoor space', especially when used in a group for a gallery wall effect. Installation is fuss-free – thanks to its lightweight design, the plaque can be hung using brick clips or hooks, no power tools needed. That means even renters can get in on the summer garden glow-up without upsetting their landlord. The green finish offers a natural, calming look that blends in nicely with plants and patio furniture. It's a subtle but effective way to enhance the look of your garden, balcony or even a small courtyard. This isn't the only garden bargain making waves at B&M. The retailer has recently slashed prices on a range of outdoor products, including a luxury gazebo now reduced to £100, down from £125. And with unpredictable British weather always a factor, this durable wall plaque can stand up to the elements. It's made from metal and finished with a protective coating to help it resist rain and sun damage. At just £1.50, it's a small investment with a big impact – so if you're looking to spruce up your space for summer barbecues, garden parties or just a quiet cuppa outside, this deal might be worth grabbing before it's gone. As always, the offer is subject to availability, and once they're gone, they're gone. So best to check your local store soon if you fancy giving your fence a glow-up for less. Transform your garden into a summer paradise BRITS are sprucing up their gardens just in time for summer and top gadgets are the secret to turning your outdoor space from drab to fab on a budget. A garden mirror is a game-changer, adding instant depth and style. B&M is selling a stunning arched version that looks almost identical to one at The Range – but at a fraction of the price. Why shell out more when you don't have to? For those who love a lush lawn, gadgets are your best friend. Aldi is offering a handy electric scarfier for £69.99, that's £120 cheaper than Bosch. B&Q's also got a budget £8.50 lawn aerator that'll keep your grass healthy so it will look in tip-top shape all season. It works by punching tiny holes into the soil, letting air, water and nutrients get right down to the roots basically giving your lawn a big breath of fresh air. Plant pots are another quick and easy way to elevate your space and there's no need to spend a fortune. IKEA and The Range are offering £5 affordable plant pot picks, while Get Potted is selling Lechuza self watering plant pots from £13. The pots not only look good but are also equipped with a planter liner and watering system to ensure better plant growth no matter how small the decor surface. But if you really want to put your feet up, budget retailers are going high-tech with robot lawnmowers. One bargain version is £250 cheaper than a similar model at B&Q, and Currys has a wallet-friendly one too. Let the robot do the mowing while you soak up the sun. And finally, if you're looking to level up your outdoor cooking, VonHaus is serving up a red-hot deal. They've launched a dupe of the cult-favourite Ninja Artisan Pizza Oven but it's £180 cheaper. That's luxury alfresco pizza nights without the luxury price tag. So whether it's pizza ovens or lawn saviours, investing in a few smart garden gadgets could be the key to keeping your garden looking gorgeous all summer without spending a fortune.

Huge fashion chain with 20 Scottish stores at risk of collapse as thousands of jobs in danger

A decision could be made in weeks CLOSURE FEARS Huge fashion chain with 20 Scottish stores at risk of collapse as thousands of jobs in danger Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MAJOR fashion train with 20 stores across Scotland is at risk of collapse. Thousands of jobs are at risk at River Island where bosses have called in experts to put together a restructuring plan. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 River Island has twenty stores across Scotland Credit: Alamy 3 The chain has called in a firm to organise a restructure Credit: Alamy The chain has reportedly hired PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) to help manage the situation, reports Sky News. River Island's official accounts for 2023 show the retailers made a £33.2m loss before tax. And their turnover plummeted by 19 per cent during the same time. No decision has yet to be made but it is understood a restructuring plan could be published in weeks. Businesses often put together a restructuring plan to prevent them from becoming insolvent and going out of business. The firm has been facing pressures from the online market where punters can buy their clothes quicker. Their most recent accounts statement to Companies House blamed "global events" for supply chain issues. It read: "The market for retailing of fashion clothing is fast changing with customer preferences for more diverse, convenient and speedier shopping journeys and with increasing competition especially in the digital space. "The key business risks for the group are the pressures of a highly competitive and changing retail environment combined with increased economic uncertainty. Final sales begin as popular clothing brand closes all stores leaving 'devastated' shoppers scrambling for alternative "A number of geopolitical events have resulted in continuing supply chain disruption as well as energy, labour and food price increases, driving inflation and interest rates higher and resulting in weaker disposable income and lower consumer confidence." River Island has twenty stores north of the border. A spokesperson for the store declined to comment to Sky.
