B&M shopper finds ‘early stocking filler’ that’s ideal for dog lovers

The discount retailer has wowed animal fans with the cute items in its new collection

The summer holidays aren’t over yet, but shoppers are already planning ahead for Christmas. For those searching for stocking fillers, a B&M fan thinks they’d found an ideal present for animal lovers. Posting on social media, the Facebook page Dansway Gifts and Bargains UK showcased B&M’s new pet-themed range, including gifts for cat lovers and dog fans.

With several items priced under £10, the selection could be ideal for those looking for affordable presents. In one post, the Facebook page highlighted two gift sets for dog lovers, each including a mug, pen, and notebook.

The caption said: “It may seem a little early, but for those who are starting to think about stocking fillers, B&M have these Dog Mug Gift Sets.” In a second post, the eagle-eyed shopper showcased a £3.50 slogan candle that reads: “Rather stay home with my dog.” Clearly impressed, the Facebook page said the slogan is “so funny.”

However, it’s not just dog lovers that B&M is catering for. There are similar slogan candles for cat lovers, as seen in another post shared by Dansway Gifts and Bargains UK. The candles read: “Home is where the cat is” and “Life is better with cats.”

Alternatively, animal lovers might like B&M’s £6 animal tumblers, with both a cat and dog design up for grabs. Showcasing the water bottles, Dansway Gifts and Bargains UK wrote: “LOVE the design of both of these NEW Dogs and Cats Straw Tumblers, which are £6 each at B&M.”

Reacting to the posts, viewers loved what they saw. The £6 animal tumblers were particularly popular, gaining lots of comments from excited shoppers. One fan replied: “I want the cat one.” A second said: “I won’t lie I love it.” A third viewer commented: “Okay need,” while a fourth shared: “Saw it. Loved it. Already bought it lol.”

Someone else wrote: “I need the cat one!” Another response said: “Can have matching cat 1s.” Meanwhile, an animal lover added: “No hamsters I see not good.”
