Transform your garden into a summer pardise
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.
"Also, plants – maybe cordyline?'
A second added: 'You're a total badass. Well done!'
Last week, shoppers rushed to B&M when another summer garden essential was scanning for £5 instead of £50.
Shoppers flocked to get their hands on on the 4-piece Overhanging Parasol Base for just £5 and spread the good news on social media.
One eagle-eyed shopper couldn't believe their luck and shared the find on Facebook. They posted: 'Run, don't walk! B&M scanning at a fiver. Was £50 originally, with a reduced to £25 ticket on it. Absolute bargain!'
The post sent social media into meltdown, with thrilled shoppers rushing to comment.
One user wrote: 'I'm going straight there after nursery."
Another added: 'Thought £10 at Dunelm was good."

RAF pilot's final flight in North Yorkshire after 45 years
An RAF pilot has said he was "quite emotional" after making his final solo flight after a 45-year flying career which saw him amass about 16,000 hours in the Lt Richard "Ricko" Offord, 64, from Richmond, North Yorkshire, first took to the skies for the air force in 1980 and has been based at RAF Leeming since his career, he piloted several different models of fast jet and in 1995 was forced to eject from his Tornado F3 after a mid-air Lt Offord said he was "a bit sad" about his retirement, and was saluted by fire engines upon landing at RAF Leeming and surprised by colleagues, family and friends, but added: "I've had a pretty good innings." After his final flight, Flt Lt Offord, who is RAF Leeming's longest serving fast jet pilot, said: "I started flying fighters in 1982. It's quite a long time, so I'm not too upset."However, he said his time in the sky had not fully come to an end."I'll carry on flying, but I can't do it in military planes," he explained."You can only do it up to age 65, unfortunately, and I'm 65 on Tuesday, so this is it." Asked about any dramatic incidents during his long career, Flt Lt Offord said: "I was once knocked out and woke up on the ground in Lincolnshire."We were doing air combat and I bumped into the other aircraft, so his tail and my wing came off. They don't fly very well without tails or wings."Pondering his lucky escape further, he added: "I didn't fly for a year due to back injuries, but all four of us ejected and everyone walked away, so that's the main thing."Speaking about the surprise welcoming committee and celebrations waiting for him after he landed for the final time in his Hawker Hunter at RAF Leeming, Flt Lt Offord said: "I had a little tear, to be fair.""I had no idea they were going to be here," he said."The whole reception with mates and fire engines, it's made me a bit emotional." Listen to highlights from North Yorkshire on BBC Sounds, catch up with the latest episode of Look North.

Watch the moment Stephen Mulhern is left red-faced as he makes HUGE blunder on Catchphrase puzzle
STEPHEN Mulhern made the ultimate slip-up during the latest episode of Celebrity Catchphrase. The TV host was seen on Saturday in the latest episode of the gameshow favourite, joined by Jeremy Vine, Charlie Hedges and comedian Luke Kempner. 6 6 As the group got to grips with the latest game – which shows famous sayings turned into cartoons for contestants to guess – Stephen found himself slipping up. Encouraging the gang to make a guess, the encouragement resulted in him accidentally spilling the answer himself. As the clip showed a man going into a coffee shop with rapidly increasing price tags until they burst through the ceiling, Stephen declared: "Literally, the prices have gone through the roof!" The contestants then stood in silence for a second as an embarrassed Stephen clocked what he had said. Jeremy Vine eventually broke the silence, pressing his buzzer and asking: "Sorry, what? Was that the answer?" Stephen then embarrassingly nodded and burst into fits of laughter alongside the cast and studio audience. "I have never in my life done that. In 10 years!" he admitted. Luke Kempner then joked: "I was just thinking 'this is a very tricky one, if it's not that!" before declaring Stephen had won himself £200. "We've got a bit of Catchphrase history here!" added Jeremy, poking fun and adding: "Roy Walker never did that." Stephen was soon crying with laughter before eventually regaining his composure and continuing with the game. Watch as three celebs fail to work out popular Catchphrase - but would you have got it on first try? Hopefully Stephen has learned his lesson - considering the show has already been given the go-ahead for an 11th series. If the three celebrities can 'say what they see' they could get the chance to win £50,000 for their chosen charity. ITV commissioner Gemma John-Lewis said: "We're delighted to announce a further series of the much loved family favourite, Celebrity Catchphrase. "The only show where you say what you see, the hugely popular series continues to win legions of fans and with Stephen's infectious and playful humour it's a firm favourite with our viewers." It is good news for the star after his other ITV programme, In For A Penny, was shelved after six years. 6 6 6

EXCLUSIVE BRIT Awards to move music ceremony out of London for the first time in 46 YEARS: Iconic night held in another major UK city in 2026
The BRIT Awards will be moving away from London for the first time in the ceremony's 46-year history. MailOnline can reveal the annual showpiece, regarded as the biggest night in British music, will be held in Manchester next year and is likely to move around the UK in different locations for the foreseeable future. The change will be officially framed around the desire to reach new audiences in other regions, while also banishing its 'London-centric' reputation. But music insiders have told MailOnline 'cost-cutting' is also a major factor, as 'everything is more expensive in the capital.' The BRITs, which has provided iconic moments in music history including Spice Girl Geri Horner 's Union Jack dress and Madonna 's infamous 2015 stage fall, has been held at London's O2 Arena since 2011. Past venues include Earl's Court, the London Arena, Alexandra Palace, Hammersmith Apollo, the Dominion Theatre, the Royal Albert Hall, the Grosvenor Hotel and its original location, Wembley Conference Centre. But the move away from the capital signals another new era in the ceremony's history, arguably the most seismic. A source told MailOnline: 'It's officially the end of an era. The BRIT Awards has been hosted in London since the ceremony first took place in 1977 and now for the first time ever, it will be held outside of the capital. 'Obviously, it's going to come as sad news to artists and talent who are London-based but there's a feeling within the music industry that these shows don't always need to be held at the same venues, year after year. 'The BRITs is the biggest night in the British music calendar and now it will be shared with a new audience, as fans from Manchester and the surrounding areas are more likely to attend. 'In recent years, there has been a general appetite for the ceremony to move, as with the The Mercury Prize and The MOBO Awards and now for the first time the music scene won't be as London-centric, both for the nominees and fans.' Manchester's new Co-op Live indoor arena is the likely destination of the first non-London ceremony, which will no doubt spark rumours Oasis, newly reformed ahead of their highly-publicised comeback, could mark the move to their native city with a live performance. According to insiders, bosses hope relocating the awards outside of London may free up more cash to spend on A-list artists to play at the ceremony. However, there are concerns many London-based acts and record company execs may turn their noses up, due to many of the big labels being based down south. An insider said: 'It's very gutting for artists who are in London, travelling to Manchester will triple the costs for people having to pay for travel and accommodation, which will no doubt go up in price. 'There's also the fear that record labels such as Sony Music, Warner, and Universal will be less inclined to host glamorous afterparties for the nominees and winners, and that the ceremony as a whole could potentially be poorly attended. 'It's not what anyone wants to hear and from many people's perspective it's purely to cut costs when London is the rightful home of the BRITs.' The BRIT Awards is not only famous for its superstar performers, glamorous guests and famous hosts, it's also provided outrageous moments watched by millions at home. Madonna's stage fall, in which the iconic singer was accidentally pulled down some stairs by a backing dancer grabbing onto her cloak, is just one of many unpredictable incidents which became synonymous with the BRITs. Chumbawabe pouring a bucket of ice water over then deputy Prime Minister John Prescott at the 1998 was a stand out moment, as was DJ Brandon Block confronting Rolling Stones legend Ronnie Wood on stage in 2000, who promptly threw a drink over him and summoned football hard man Vinnie Jones over to confront the intruder. Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker 'mooning' Michael Jackson's performance of Earth song in 1996 sparked huge controversy, as did Adele giving the middle finger after host James Corden cut her off mid-speech to end the show back in 2012. Notable presenters, aside from Corden, down the years have included Jack Whitehall, Chris Evans, Ben Elton, Kylie Minogue and Peter Kay, who famously branded Liam Gallagher a 'knobhead' for throwing his award into the crowd. But the most notorious were arguably the worst, the iconic 1989 pairing of Page 3 legend Samantha Fox and Mick Fleetwood whose stint as hosts was marred with technical issues so bad the show was televised twice, the second time with the shambolic errors edited out.
