Bargain hunters race to B&Q to nab ex-display bathrooms that are being flogged for £50 including shower & toilet units
BARGAIN hunters are sprinting to get to their local B&Q, desperate to nab ex-display bathrooms that are being flogged for a fraction of the price.
So if you’ve had the same bathroom for years and want an upgrade, whilst on a budget, you’ve come to the right place.
One savvy shopper was left stunned when browsing through his local B&Q, when he noticed that the store was changing their bathroom displays.
As a result, the chain had slashed the price of bathrooms and luckily for Phill Crowly Âû, he was able to get his hands on a shower, toilet and sink, for just £50 altogether - yes, you heard that correctly.
Thrilled with his cheap finds, Phill took to social media to alert other shoppers - leaving many open-mouthed.
Posting on Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, a private Facebook group with a staggering 2.4 million members, Phill shared snaps of his purchases and wrote: “B&Q are changing their bathroom displays.

“I managed to bag a shower, toilet and sink for £50.”
But there was a catch - as Phill shared: “I had to take it down from display myself but a bargain worth around £1k.”
He then advised shoppers: “Check out your local.”
While the shower didn’t have an original price tag and the sink wasn’t included in Phill’s snaps, his new Tesi wall hung rimless toilet was priced at a whopping £440.
Phill shared his post just five hours ago, but it has clearly impressed many, as it has quickly racked up a whopping 713 likes and 493 comments.
Social media users were left stunned at the bargain buys and many tagged their friends and loved ones in the comments to alert them.
One person said: “Brilliant.”
Another tagged a friend and asked: “Might be worth a look?”
A third alerted a loved one and commented: “We should go look.”
Someone else notified a Facebook user and advised: “Might be worth a nosey.”
New displays are being put into all stores

Whilst another savvy shopper told a B&Q fan: “Get to B&Q.”
At the same time, someone else questioned: “Is this all B&Q?”
To this, a B&Q worker wrote: “Yes. New displays are being put into all stores.
“To be honest, it's been happening for a few weeks so there may not be much left.”
However, another B&Q employee chimed in and advised: “Ours isn’t happening for a while yet so I wouldn’t rush just yet!!!!”
Following this, another staff member claimed: “They sell the display as they need to replace it with a new one.
