WITH Wilko on the brink of administration, bargain hunters are racing to clear the shelves as the high-street store slashes its prices by up to 50%.
From suitcases to home decor and even bargain buys for the garden, there are a whole host of items on offer in the Wilko's mega sale – and people have been eagerly showing off their bargain buys online.
Amongst them is one thrilled shopper named Abbey Woods, who took to money-saving Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK and shared a snap of the hugely discounted pillow she nabbed for just £3.20.
Alongside the image, she penned: "Ahead of Wilkos shutting down, I nipped into the Wigan store today and managed to get my hands on these cushions.
"They're 55cm x 55cm and only cost £3.20 in the sale."
Another delighted shopper named Alice Thomas posted an image of a kettle charcoal BBQ, which features an enamel coated steel grid, bakelite handle, warming rack and bottom storage mesh.
