Summer is right around the corner, and one of B&M’s most popular garden furniture items is finally in stock once again.
The hanging egg chair is back.
After what has been an unseasonably cold few months, temperatures have been hotting up over the past couple of weeks and the sun has finally started making an appearance in Greater Manchester now that May is here, which means that lots of people have been able to get out and spend some time in their gardens for the first time this year.
The first glimmer of sunshine is also what tends to prompt people into tidying up and preparing their gardens for the summer – with new furniture additions often a popular place to start.
B&M is known for selling an extensive range of garden furniture every summer, with stock often flying off the shelves and being snapped up as soon as the weather turns warmer, but arguably nothing is more sought-after than the hanging egg chair.

Every year, the budget retailer’s viral Siena Hanging Egg Chair sees people flock from far and wide to their nearest store, and often sells out in no time at all.
But this summer, not only is it back in stock once again, but you can also get it for 20% off.

The Siena Hanging Egg Chair is described by the retailer as being a “comfortable chair” that’s the “perfect place to relax” in the summer, and it comes with a luxury cushion inside safely-secured suspended rattan basket to provide “a smooth rocking action”.
The massively popular chair will usually set you back a whopping £250, but if you’re looking to get your hands on it this summer, B&M currently has a 20% offer on giving you £50 off the market price, meaning the chair could be yours for just £200.
As is usually the case though, the chair is predicted to sell out, and given the discount, it could prove more popular than ever, so you’ll want to be quick if you’re looking to add the accessory to your garden.

Tesco has unveiled its full Christmas meal deal lineup for 2024, and it’s already hit the shelves across the UK now.
Spooky season is nearly on its way out, and it won’t be long before the most wonderful time of the year is here, which is why most of the UK’s major supermarkets have already begun stocking their shelves with Christmas food, drink, and gifts galore – especially after a new survey has revealed a fifth of Brits have already started doing their Christmas shopping.
As well as its full festive food lineup announced in early August, Tesco has now unveiled all the sandwiches and snacks forming part of its iconic lunchtime meal deal selection.
Eight new seasonal mains and sides have been launched this year, as well as some classics and returning fan favourites too.

Now available in stores and online, and with Tesco Clubcard members paying just £3.60 or £5 for those looking to upgrade to a Premium Meal Deal, some of the options for mains you can choose from in 2024’s festive lineup include the new Christmas Cracking Currywurst Sub, the new Ho-Ho-Hog Wrap, and the new Festive Chicken, Bacon & Stuffing Mayo Baguette.
Other returning favourites include the Yuletide Half & Half Sandwich, the Jingle Brie Sandwich, and the absolute classic Turkey & Trimmings Sandwich.

When it comes to snacks to accompany those mains, the festive Mini Pork Pies and Pig in Blanket Sausage Rolls are returning to the lineup this year, alongside some delicious newbies like the Mini Christmas Bangers with Gravy Mayo Dip, and the Christmassy Chicken Bites with Festive Cranberry Dip.
The Christmas Meal Deal range is now available in Tesco stores across the UK, and there’s millions of combinations to try.
