SHOPPERS are rushing to a major retailer after finding a portable BBQ that’s 67% off.
Halfords has slashed the price of its briefcase BBQ bill, and customers have given it rave reviews.
In a post on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Facebook group, one shopper said, “It’s an absolute bargain, great for camping or the beach.”
In response, another shopper said: “Thank you for this. I got it today!
“I used my blue light discount, so I got it for £4.60!”
Another said: “Tesco was selling a similar version of this but for £15 on their clearance.”
“This would be perfect for toasting marshmallows on the beach,” said a fourth shopper.
The Halfords briefcase BBQ grill is described as a lightweight and portable charcoal barbecue set with a foldaway briefcase design for easy transportation.
At full price, the BBQ used to cost £15.
However, Halford had now slashed its price to just £5.
While the product was available online, it has now sold out.
However, it’s still available in stores while stocks last.
You can find your closest Halford store by visiting www.halfords.com/locations.
Remember to always have a quick shop around before you make a purchase on sale items.
You might be able to find a similar product that is cheaper elsewhere.
Always remember that prices vary by brand, size and retailer so it’s worth having a browse elsewhere before you make a decision.
Use price comparison tools like Google Shopping to find similar products from other retailers and compare prices.
However, the Halfords briefcase BBQ grill is the cheapest we’ve seen available right now.
Shoppers can grab a similar product from B&Q for £29.99.
Wilko sells a briefcase-designed mini BBQ for £29.50 online.
However, you’ll need to factor in delivery costs that range between £4.99 and £6.99.
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.
It is easier to save money when shopping at Halfords than you think.
Here are some tips to help you get the best deals.
Always check for online discount codes and vouchers before making a purchase.
Websites like VoucherCodes, Groupon, and Halfords’ website often post frequent promotional codes.
Shoppers who sign up for the Halfords Rewards program can receive exclusive discounts, offers, and early access to sales.
Halfords also offers a price match guarantee on many products.
So, if you find a cheaper price elsewhere, they may match it.
Watch for seasonal sales, clearance events, and special promotions.
Black Friday, Boxing Day, and other holiday sales can offer substantial discounts.
Sometimes, online prices are cheaper than in-store prices.
You can buy online and choose the “click and collect” option to avoid delivery charges.
By keeping these strategies in mind, you can maximise your savings when you’re next shopping at Halfords.
