And whether you're planning on hosting a BBQ or simply sitting down with a good book, you'll want to makes sure you have the perfect furniture to turn your garden into a haven.
Garden furniture can be pricey, but thanks to B&M slashing the price of its Sorrento Corner Curve Sofa Set you can now nab the chic seat for £275.
The sofa set was originally priced at £350, meaning that it is now 21% cheaper.
Not only does the set come with a huge curved sofa, perfect for hosting friends and family, it also includes a small round table, screws and fittings and an instruction manual.
B&M said: "Transform your garden or patio with this Sorrento Corner Curve Sofa Set.
"This stylish garden patio sofa set is the perfect way to relax and enjoy your outdoor space.
"Create the perfect setting for family gatherings, garden parties, alfresco dining, and lazy days in the sun."
Aldi is also selling a Rattan Effect Corner Sofa for the bargain price of £199.
Unlike the B&M buy, this product does not come with a table, but is instead paired with a small footstool, to maximise comfort.
The sofa is made with UV protected rattan weaving - so you don't have to worry about it get damaged by the sun - and is super easy to assemble.
I made a DIY fence for £68 with pallets from Facebook Marketplace - it gives more privacy & people say it's 'fantastic'
However, the Aldi buy landed on shelves on April 27, and is only available while stocks last, so you better hurry and nab yours quick.
B&M fans have also been raving about a classy £12 feature adding an elegant twist to their garden designs.
It's proved perfect for a cheeky hack to replace tired old baskets without damaging the flowers you've meticulously tended.
The elegant grey plant pots cost only £11.99 and are perfect for DIY beginners.
Garden features that add the most value to a house
A well-kept garden can add anywhere between 5-20% to the value of a property.
Sellhousefast.uk carried out a study and consulted 36 estate agents, garden designers and property professionals from across the UK.
And the experts revealed the garden feature which adds the most value to a property is a shed. Shed - 82% Patio or paving - 76% Secure fencing, walls or gates - 72% Outdoor lighting - 66% Sturdy decking - 62% Water features eg. fountain or pond - 58% Modern garden furniture - 54% Artificial lawn/grass - 40%
All you have to do is drill a few holes in the bottom of the pot and whack some bricks and cardboard in it to give the plants some air to breathe.
Then top with a healthy sprinkling of soil, transfer your plants from your crusty old baskets or pots into the new swanky stone grey pots, and they should shoot into full bloom.
Home hack influencer Stephanie Larbey enthusiastically demonstrated the process.
Proudly prancing around in her husband's bright green Crocs, she said: 'I'm actually going to use the azalea I've already got, it gets really beautiful white flowers in the summer.
'See what I mean about these baskets needing updating.'
Repeating the process, she rehoused a different spring flower: 'This lavender wasn't doing well in its pot, so I actually bought some top-up lavender from B&M to help it on its way.
'And then it's onto pot number three for this one. I bought viburnum from B&M, and for this one (the smallest pot), I just filled it with some soil and stones.'

'Easy' way to clean patios in just '10 minutes' with no jet washer needed
After weeks of wet, windy weather, your patios are likely looking a little worse for wear - but a heatwave is on the way next week so it's the perfect time to get cleaning After enduring weeks of dreary, blustery conditions, your patios may be looking rather neglected. With a sizzling heatwave on the horizon for the UK next week, it's the perfect opportunity to spruce up your patio or al fresco dining space in time for barbecues and gatherings. Yet, tackling tough stains, algae, and moss on patios can prove challenging. Bearing this in mind, devotees of cleaning sensation Mrs Hinch have divulged their straightforward and speedy technique for patio rejuvenation. Elaine Chalk reached out to the 'Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips' community, asking: "Best Patio cleaner, please?" Her query was met with a deluge of suggestions, but one product, Monty Miracle, stood out as a crowd favourite. Georgia Ettridge enthused: "Monty Miracle is by far my favourite!" She continued: "...Then rinse it after 10 minutes." Elaine Rider offered her endorsement: "Monty Miracle cleaner is the best. Honestly, it's so easy to use and so quick. No jet-washing, just spray, leave 10 minutes and rinse away with a hosepipe." She raved further: "You will never use anything else again. I was recommended it and wow I was amazed at the result. This is my patio before and after." Elaine showcased a striking before-and-after snapshot of her patio transformation,, reports the Express. The initial image revealed a surface marred by black marks, while the subsequent one displayed a patio that appeared as good as new. The lauded Monty Miracle patio cleaner is available for purchase online or at hardware shops. Priced at £31.49 from B&Q and £29.69 from Amazon, Monty Miracle Fast Patio Cleaner is accessible for those eager to replicate Elaine's impressive results. Mrs Hinch enthusiasts have been sharing their top tips for keeping outdoor spaces pristine, with suggestions ranging from Wet and Forget to bleach, Patio Magic, pressure washers, and soda crystals. Christina McManus shared her success story: "I've just done mine with Wet and Forget yesterday and they have came up great, I left it on all night and rinsed it this morning." Ann Stanton offered a multi-step approach: "If it's in need of a clean first, neat bleach, a stiff broom, jet wash then Patio Magic or Wet and Forget to keep it clean." Ann Miles provided a cost-effective solution: "Jet wash. Before I bought one I would empty a whole bottle of good bleach mix in hot water in a large watering can and wet each slab. Just leave it to dry and hose down." Karen Sutton recommended a simple household remedy: "Soda crystals in hot water. Stiff broom and scrub and rinse off." The product Wet and Forget has previously been endorsed by Mrs Hinch's followers, who praised its ease of use. For those looking to purchase Wet and Forget, it's available at Wickes for £18 and on Amazon for £21.95.

The Dubai Style Chocolate Bar lands in store tomorrow! Will you be picking one up.' Fans flooded the comments with excitement. One wrote: 'More temptation.' Another added: 'You knocked it out of the park with this. Absolutely amazing.' A third asked: 'Hey dear Aldi, are these a special or permanent fixture? Xx' The chocolate is part of Aldi's Specialbuys range, meaning once it's sold out, it may not return. With no buying limit, shoppers are expected to stock up quickly. This isn't the first time retailers have tried to cash in on the Dubai chocolate craze. Lidl's JD Gross version flew off shelves, and Waitrose offers a similar pistachio white chocolate bar for £2.75. Morrisons stocks its own version—Bolci Dubai Chocolate—for £5. The trend shows no signs of slowing down, as chocolate lovers continue to seek out these premium-style treats at lower prices. If you're keen to try one, it's worth getting to your local Aldi early to avoid disappointment. As word spreads, demand is expected to spike.

Aldi's budget-friendly alcohol selection is another way to save, with own-brand options often coming in much cheaper than big-name labels. Don't forget about Too Good To Go 'Surprise Bags', available in selected stores. These offer a low-cost mix of near-date groceries that would otherwise go to waste. How to save money on chocolate We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar. Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs... Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars. Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere. Websites like let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal. Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced. They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged. Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar. So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger.
