The item is only available in-store and is no longer stocked on Dunelm’s website.
However, it’s important to note that stock will be limited and even if your local store has one on the shelf, the item might not be reduced to the same price.
You can locate your local Dunelm store by visiting www.dunelm.com/stores.
It’s always worth shopping around when looking for deals as you might be able to find a better one elsewhere.

Dunelm is ideal if you’re looking for home furnishings on the cheap, but there’s one way of getting discounts all year round.
You can also get money off certain items 365 days a year through the retailer’s “Returns Outlet” page on its website.
Some UK shoppers can nab discounts worth up to 70% off at three Dunelm outlet stores too.
How to compare prices to get the best deal
JUST because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn’t mean it’s always a good deal.
There are plenty of comparison websites out there that’ll check prices for you – so don’t be left paying more than you have to.
Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.
Here are some that we recommend:
- Google Shopping is a tool that lets users search for and compare prices for products across the web. Simply type in keywords, or a product number, to bring up search results.
- Price Spy logs the history of how much something costs from over 3,000 different retailers, including Argos, Amazon, eBay and the supermarkets. Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock.
- Idealo is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers. All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one.
- CamelCamelCamel only works on goods being sold on Amazon. To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.
B&M is another good place to find deals on homeware and kitchen gadgets.
