The savvy saver took to Facebook to show off their bargain purchase The garden must-have is selling for £30 in DIY store B&Q – it originally cost £120. One bargain hunter, who posted in the Extreme Couponing and Bargains Facebook Group, couldn’t wait to share their discovery with people online. They wrote: “Extreme saving from B&Q in Basingstoke, originally priced at £120, found for £30, and extreme saving of £90! (Ran home and never looked back)”.
