Pet owners spot 10p bargain on B&M shelves perfect for keeping your furry friend safe
PET owners have been left jumping for joy after spotting a 10p bargain dog product on shelves in B&M stores.
The superb nite-glo flashing dog tag is a nifty gadget that will not only keep your four-legged friend happy but will also give owners peace of mind that their pooch is staying safe.
The toy is marketed as a doggy nightlight that pups can wear around their collars so when they go on walks at night they can always be seen.
Featuring an “ultra bright” LED, the light can keep your furry friend safe and visible for up to 300m away.
Described as “perfect for night or in low light” the dog tag comes with four separate settings.
It can permanently be on meaning your dog will be easy to spot when they go through bushes or around trees.
Or it can have a steady flash or a slow flash.
Alternatively, the light can be off but as the product comes in a yellow high visibility colour it will emit a clear light just by being on your pooch.
B&M shoppers have been left scrambling to get the tag as one savvy shopper revealed they are currently scanning for only 10p.
Meaning anyone who can grab one could be saving themselves a whopping £2.40 as they typically scan for £2.50.
Despite the blockbuster savings, it’s likely that the branch that was selling the tags at just 10p probably had excess stock that they were looking to give away.
If you don’t want to be disappointed when you arrive at your local B&M branch you can always call up ahead of a visit and double check.
Flashing dog tags are a popular item for savvy dog owners who want to stay aware at night.
With B&M being one of the only major retailers to stock them on their ever popular shelves.
John Lewis also sell light up tags for dogs that can be personalised by writing your pup’s name on it.
However they will set you back £6.
Elsewhere, Amazon and Ebay also sell similar versions of the product at a whole different range of prices but with none coming close to 10p.
Another 10p B&M bargain saw one shopper get a whole basket full of “Street Food Sauces”.
Shoppers can grab eight different sauces for an amazing price, with BBQ sauce and Spicy as options.
“I want these,” said one user.
Another added: “Brilliant find.”
While a third tagged their friend, asking if they could “get some please?”
The same item can be found on Amazon for a whopping £20.
An eagle-eyed customer spotted a humidifier sitting on the discount retailer shelves for just £1.
The device had been slashed by 93 per cent which excited bargain hunters.
One commented “need one of these” while another, tagging a friend, added “go (get one) for me then”.
A third, who already has one of the humidifiers, chimed in: “These are amazing for such a small item really works well.”
Even if you think you’ve found a bargain, remember to always shop around for the best deal.
You can use price comparison sites like Price Spy and Trolley, which let you trawl through thousands of products to find the best price.
A quick scan of Google through its Product/Shopping tab will bring up retailers selling a particular item.
How to save money at B&M
According to one ex-B&M manager, you’ll want to visit your local branch at 10am on a Wednesday.
This is when staff slash items to as little as 10p to clear excess stock and make way for new products.

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.
