B&M slashes price of travel essential to just £1 from £5 and it’s perfect for summer holidays
BARGAIN buyers have flocked to B&M after the retailer slashed its prices of a popular holiday must-have.
So if you are looking for a flight-friendly bag then you will want to check this out.
Savvy shoppers have already been able to get their hands on the handheld luggage for just one pound.
The B&M brand has been known to pride itself on “sensational items at remarkable prices”.
The item was originally labelled as “new” and on sale for five pounds but the reduced to clear sticker has offered an incredible new price.
The handheld bag is suitable for most airlines as it is forty four by thirty two centimetres.
Thrilled by the bargain, many Facebook users replied to the post.
One user claimed that the twenty percent discount extended to all luggage and bags.
Whilst one commented: “Fantastic find – well spotted!”
Another said: “I’ll have to have a look xxx.”
A third added: “Good find.”
It appears that the only thing jetsetters will find soaring to the skies is their flights as prices have been slashed.
It comes as hopeful holidaymakers have been legging it to Asda stores.
The supermarket giant has also slashed suitcase prices with a variety of sizes and colours on offer.
Holiday packing tips
Jemma Solomon, aka The Label Lady has got 5 packing tips to help you get organised for your next holiday.
1. Write a list
Think about all the essentials you need to take with you; suncream, medicine, a few games for the kids, beach towels, and write everything in one list, which you can tick off as you add it to your suitcase.
Or for complete ease, try Google’s AI app – Gemini – which will create a list for you and help you not over pack.
2. Involve your kids
Jemma said: “My girls are getting older, they’re 11 and nine, and they enjoy helping to pack. So I send them a list, and say ‘this is what you need’ and they follow the list.
“And then I give them a rucksack each – and say to them ‘you can have whatever you want in there as long as it’s not liquid’, and they can take that on the plane. And that’s their ‘home away from home’ items.”
3. Try a hack or two
She said: “I think they all work, but for different reasons – and you’ve just got to pick the right one for your trip.
“Rolling your clothes is really good to stop your clothes from getting creases. And if you’re trying to get a lot of items into your case, it’s a space saver.
“Packing cubes are great – for example, I’m going on holiday with my three kids and we’re all using the same suitcase for our clothes.
“These handy compartments let you separate your clothes, toiletries and tech into designated cubes, maximising luggage space by keeping your items compressed and neatly stacked.
“I love taking them abroad with the family and it means my kids can easily take charge of their own items once we’ve arrived.”
4. Decant beauty products
Do you really need to take full-size bottles of shampoo and conditioner with you? The beauty industry has evolved so much, you can now buy shampoo bars or sheets – which are much lighter and smaller.
Or, if you’ll be popping to the shops when you’re abroad, consider buying some items when you arrive.
5. Get organised before you come home
Jemma said: “When you repack on holiday [before coming home], the trick is to separate clean from dirty clothes.
“Also pack it in some form of order – so lights, darks, colours for items that need washing, or if you wash your clothes by person in the household, piles for each person.
“Then you can put it straight into the washing machine. Do it straight away, don’t leave it.”
