Shoppers empty shelves of Ring camera as price drops below £20 in rare deal
BARGAIN hunters have gone wild for a big Ring product price drop that's quickly disappearing from shelves.
Shoppers are managing to save £30 on the home security gadget, which is landing into baskets for only £19 instead.
The offer is available at B&Q.
But stock appears to be dwindling fast so you'll have to check your local store for one.
The model up for sale is the Ring 2nd Gen Wireless Indoor Smart camera in white which usually costs £49.
It offers all the features Ring users love, such as the ability to watch live and remotely talk back to people - or pets.
If you have a Ring subscription it'll record videos and store them in the cloud for you too just like the doorbell device.
As the name states, this is the indoor version of the Ring camera, meaning it doesn't have suitable waterproofing to be used outside.
However, they are popular for directing outside from a window, or monitoring pets when you're not home.
It also has a 140 degree viewing angle and 9m night vision range.
There's a privacy cover too so users can physically stop it from recording videos.

Another commented: "The App is still showing quite a few in stock around my area."

Two-bedroom cottage with picturesque river views hits market for just £1… but closer look reveals exactly why
A DOER-upper called Love Cottage is on sale for a bargain price - but is hiding a grim secret. The two-bed home - which boasts picturesque river views - is listed with a starting price of just £1 as it goes up for auction, though needs a lot of work. 7 7 7 The property in Pembroke Dock, Pembrokeshire, requires a total revamp - but could be the perfect love nest. It could work as a holiday let, long-term rental or renovation project for a keen developer. Sean Roper, of Paul Fosh Auctions, said: 'The mid-terraced property has certainly seen much better days. "But there is plenty of scope presented by what is there and added to that the property has a very large garden which could also be exploited and an auction guide price of just £1!" He went on to say the expansive garden extends down the rear of Meyrick Street, offering "a number of development opportunities" subject to planning permission. 'The first could be to renovate and refurbish to a high standard for holiday lets due to its proximity to many of Pembrokeshire top tourist areas," said Mr Roper. "Typically, a refurbished two-bedroom cottage would generate in the region of 28k per annum net as a holiday let. "A second option could be to renovate and refurbish to a high standard as a long term let." Mr Roper said demand could be high for a refurbished property like this is marketed to young professionals and local workers - with the potential for £900pcm in rent. Another option would be to do it up and sell it for up to an estimated £185,000 or sell the garden space. "Parcels of land could be sold to individual houses along Meyrick Street and then retain the house with a portion of the remaining garden space," explained Mr Roper. The cottage sits close to the main shopping area of Pembroke Dock, with good links to the A40, while there is also a nearby rail station and the A477 provides access to the heart of Milford Haven Centre. Bwthyn Cariad is one of some 80 plus lots which will be sold online at Paul Fosh Auctions which starts at midday on June 24 and ends from 5pm on June 26. Nine British beauty spots where you can buy your dream home for 30% less than the asking price By Sam Walker BUYERS in nine areas around the UK could get their dream home for hundreds of thousands of pounds cheaper than the asking price. New data has revealed the British beauty spots where average property sales prices are much lower than average listing prices. House prices have surged across the UK to reach record highs in recent months with affordability still a major challenge for many buyers. But those looking to purchase in nine postcodes can bag some major bargains, according to data from house buying company Upstix. In Salcombe and Lincombe, Devon, buyers can shave 14.69% off the average listed price of a property. The average price of homes there is £842,271, but the average actual sale price is £718,514 - a £123,757 difference. In North Sunderland in the north east of England, and the county of Cumbria, buyers face paying £317,612 for a typical property, despite the average listed price being £450,995 - a 29.58% or £133,383 difference. Meanwhile, in Ellesmere and Cockshutt in the West Midlands, the average listed price of homes is £372,531. However, the average sales price in the same areas is £297,477 - a 20.15% or £75,054 bargain. Unsurprisingly, buyers in London could save the most in cash terms when looking at house sales prices versus listed prices. Properties in the capital city list for an average of £1,503,674, but sell for £1,303,664 - a more than £200,000 gap and 13.30% drop off. The data from Upstix also reveals that buyers face vast disparities between listed prices and actual house prices across postcodes in the East of England, East Midlands and South East England. Buyers in places such as Woodbridge and Rendlesham in Suffolk could bag up to 16.29% off on house prices in these spots, saving potentially £80,261. In postcodes covering Oakham and Cottesmore in the East Midlands savings of 12.72% can be made, while in the south east Mayfield and Five Ashes in East Sussex buyers can grab an 11.40% saving. 7 7 7 7

Minister dismisses US fears about China's London 'super embassy' as White House warns against letting Beijing build near sensitive City sites
A senior minister today dismissed US misgivings about controversial plans for a Chinese 'super embassy' near the City of London today. The Trump administration has urged Downing Street to block the proposed development close to London financial centres amid fears that it will be used to tap into commercial information. It is the latest warning to be presented to ministers about the site at Royal Mint Court, close to the Tower of London, which is near a sensitive hub of essential communication cables. But Technology Secretary Peter Kyle said the UK would offer a 'fulsome response' to any security concerns raised. He told Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips on Sky News: 'These issues will be taken care of assiduously in the planning process. 'But just to reassure people, we deal with embassies and these sorts of infrastructure issues all the time. 'We are very experienced of it, and we are very aware of these sorts of issues constantly, not just when new buildings are being done, but all the time.' However, shadow home secretary Chris Philp told the same programme: 'It is a security risk - it is likely to become a base for their (China's) pan-European espionage activities.' The suggested site is also situated between several major financial hubs in Canary Wharf and the City as well as three crucial data centres. It is understood US President Donald Trump has warned Sir Keir Starmer against giving the embassy the go-ahead. The matter is believed to have been discussed during trade talks, as Britain and its Atlantic ally discuss how they will implement a trade deal to avoid UK steel producers being lumbered with 50 percent import tariffs by July 9. According to The Times, US diplomats would be trepidatious about sharing intelligence with Britain if the embassy went ahead. A senior US official told the publication: 'The United States is deeply concerned about providing China with potential access to the sensitive communications of one of our closest allies.' It comes after claims 'dark cabling' running beneath the proposed site 'feeds the City of London' were given in a memo to the United States' National Security Council by members of the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China (Ipac). John Moolenaar, the Republican head of the House of Representatives' China committee said if these reports were 'accurate' the site would 'pose an unacceptable risk' to both the UK and US. 'The Chinese Communist Party has a clear track record of targeting critical infrastructure.' he said. 'This development would raise serious concerns in the United States and could be viewed as an act of strategic overreach by Beijing and a curious error in judgment by London.' The executive director of IPAC, Luke de Pulford dubbed the matter as a 'flashpoint' in US-UK trade talks, adding it was 'staggering' the White House had to corroborate the cabling risk to 'defend its own financial system'. 'It's time to send Xi Jinping a clear message: no matter the pressure or coercion, the UK and US won't trade away national security, and this embassy isn't happening,' he said. China has been attempting to revise plans for the Royal Mint building, which neighbours the Tower of London, since it was purchased in 2018. The matter is believed to have been discussed during trade talks regarding steel production It is believed the Chinese foreign minister, Wang Yi, brought up the matter with foreign secretary, David Lammy, while visiting London last year. According to The Times, President Xi had also discussed the same issue with the Prime Minister in a phone conversation. The proposal for the embassy, which would be China's largest in Europe, was previously rejected by Tower Hamlets council in 2022. But two weeks after Labour Chancellor Rachel Reeves came back from a visit to China earlier this year, both the council's and Scotland Yard's objections were dropped. Priti Patel, the shadow foreign secretary, described China as a 'dangerous threat to the national and economic security of our country'. She said the Conservative party continued to stand 'firmly' against the embassy proposals, stating her party would never put the UK's 'financial centre or country at risk.' Next Monday, three of Trump's aides are scheduled to meet with their Chinese peers in London for discussions in a bid to solve the current trade war between the two economic powerhouses. The Treasury secretary Scott Bessent, the commerce secretary Howard Lutnick and the trade representative Jamieson Greer will act as representatives for the US, Trump has declared on Truth Social. Yesterday, China 's foreign ministry confirmed vice-premier He Lifeng will be on British shores from June 8 until June 13, adding that talks would with the US would take place. Previously, a Chinese embassy spokesperson has quashed spy allegations, stating: 'Anti-China elements are always keen on slandering and attacking China.' A government spokesman said: 'Applications for a new Chinese embassy in Tower Hamlets have been called in for ministers to decide. A final decision will be made in due course.'

Laura Kuenssberg to grill technology secretary ahead of Spending Review
Update: Date: 08:55 BST Title: Resignation, return and a new role: Reform UK's Zia Yusuf's week in a nutshell Content: Aside from the upcoming Spending Review, Reform UK's internal drama has been making headlines this week. On Thursday, Zia Yusuf resigned as Reform UK chairman. Yesterday, he announced his return to the party in a new role. Yusuf will lead what the party calls its "Doge team" – which is modelled on the Department of Government Efficiency set up by US President Donald Trump. On Saturday, Reform leader Nigel Farage told the BBC he was "delighted" Yusuf had returned to the party. In a post on X, Yusuf said he had received a large number of messages urging him to reconsider leaving the party and explained why he quit two days ago. "After 11 months of working as a volunteer to build a political party from scratch, with barely a single day off, my tweet was a decision born of exhaustion," he wrote about his resignation announcement shared on X. Other parties have criticised Reform over Yusuf's reappointment. Labour described it as "humiliating hokey-cokey" and the Liberal Democrats called it a game of "musical chairman". This morning, Reform UK's deputy leader Richard Tice will be appearing on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, stay with us. Update: Date: 08:53 BST Title: Spending Review: Massive cheques, but what do the totals hide? Content: Laura KuenssbergPresenter, Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg With five days to go before next week's Spending Review, I've been passed some of the information that will be in Chancellor Rachel Reeves' pages. One crucial chart that will be in the huge bundle of documents heading to the printing presses on Tuesday night shows what's called TDEL – the Total Departmental Expenditure Limit. In other words, the total that government spends, including the day-to-day costs of running public services and long-term spending on big projects. The chart spans 2010 to 2030, so takes in the coalition years, where you can see the total sliding down, then the Conservative years when spending starts rising after the Brexit referendum, then leaps up during Covid. And then, when Labour took charge, the red line going up steeply at first, then more slowly towards the end of this parliamentary term. The total real-terms spending by 2029-30? More than £650bn – roughly £100bn more than when Labour took office. The government's political opponents may look at that red line as it climbs steeply upwards and say: "See, public spending is ballooning out of control." This chart does illustrate very significant rises in public spending. But be careful. What this chart doesn't give us is any idea of how those massive totals break down. A Treasury document shared with the BBC Read Laura's full story: Spending Review: Massive cheques from the chancellor for some - but what do totals hide? Update: Date: 08:48 BST Title: What we know about the Spending Review Content: Dearbail JordanBusiness reporter Chancellor Rachel Reeves is facing some difficult choices in the upcoming Spending Review, which sets the budgets for all government departments over the next few years. The review will confirm how much taxpayers' money will be spent on the NHS and other public services used by millions, as well as how much money the government plans to invest in projects like new public transport schemes. The Spending Review will be delivered by Reeves on Wednesday, 11 June. In October she set department budgets for 2025-26, and will now confirm spending allocations for the following three to four years. Reeves has already set out what is known as the "spending envelope" - how much total government spending will rise by over the period. On Wednesday this will be broken down by department. Update: Date: 08:45 BST Title: Kuenssberg to grill politicians ahead of upcoming Spending Review Content: Matt SpiveyLive editor Welcome to another Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg. This morning, Technology Secretary Peter Kyle, Reform UK deputy leader Richard Tice and shadow home secretary Chris Philp will be put under the spotlight. They're likely to face questions about the Spending Review, which will be delivered by Chancellor Rachel Reeves on Wednesday, 11 June. "Sources suggest she has three aspects in mind: security for the country, the health of the nation - that does what it says on the tin, and "investing", all that cash for long-term projects," Kuenssberg writes. Actor and activist Arnold Schwarzenegger will also join the programme to talk about what the US government should do about climate change.
