What to buy in the summer sales

Grab a bargain for your garden

Outdoor furniture and garden accessories are seasonal, usually a long-lasting investment and should still come in handy this dull and dreary summer – I’m not giving up hope for some hot rays just yet! Best buys in the summer sales are:

Barbecues – OK, so you’ve had two soggy hotdogs and a charred chicken wing this summer, and if you can’t improve the chef at least you can improve their tools.

Top quality barbecues really do stand the test of time, which is especially important if your barbecue lives outside and needs to be rust-resistant for several years. Try Robert Dyas’ barbecues on sale with low to high price points, including BBQs by celeb chef Antony Worrall Thompson.

Garden dining – should be practical yet stylish. Take a look at our range of affordable garden tables and chairs for outdoor entertaining and/or relaxing.

Outdoor lighting – is equally important to distinguish your tumbler of red wine from the kids’ Ribena, as it is for creating a relaxed ambience and twilight glow. Go to Watts London for chic and simple lanterns on sale.

You can’t put a price on security, but if that price has 50% off then it’s very tempting… Buy solar security lights on mydeco.com for less and choose from a range or retailers in this year’s summer garden sale.

Garden sheds – not only a haven where the lawnmower rusts, the tomoto plants whither and a place for a sneaky fag. Garden sheds are now, dare I say it, cool.

Magazine shoots have turned them into funky sheds-cum-offices, with garden ‘accessories’ – you know, the unused pitchfork, floral trowel,  grandma’s secatuers -hanging neatly on the wall. Or they can be light-filled semi-greenhouses, with glass doors and solar roof panels, bursting with green foliage, perky cucumbers and yellow courgette flowers. Become a fan of the trendy garden shed for less, with our garden sheds on sale from garden chic.
