THEY were the garden ornaments of the summer last year, with shoppers desperate to get their hands on one.
So it’s pretty much a done deal that Home Bargains’ new version of their viral hot air balloon solar lights are also going to be a sell out success.
Suzanne took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook to share her epic find, as she shared a picture of the ground stake version of the lights and wrote: “They have the solar balloons as ground stakes now.
“£3.99 Home Bargains!”
And the comments section was quickly flooded with shoppers admitting they were desperate to get their hands on them.
“I need these!” one wrote.
“Still waiting for our Home Bargains to get these. Sooo want some!” another sighed.
“This is what I was looking for a few weeks ago,” a third wrote.
“What Home Bargains are they in?” someone else questioned.
“I’ve been to about five different stores and can’t find them!”
“Not seen them ..bet it won’t last long because the balloon didn’t last long too,” another commented.
Others were lucky enough to have already nabbed some of the ground stakes.
“So happy I was able to get 2 of these from my local HB today!” one said.
“I normally miss out!”
“How do they look at night?” another asked.
With someone else sharing a picture of hers lit up at night, adding: “Mine now. Flickers like a flame.”
“Just ordered some of the hanging ones online,” someone else wrote.
The ground stake version of the hot air balloon lights aren’t available online as yet, but the hanging ones are on the Home Bargains website for £3.99 each in various colours.
