Cheapest fans from Argos, Wilko and more with prices starting from under £6
WITH the Easter weekend bringing hot weather for families to enjoy, you’ll want to know where you can bag yourself a cheap fan.
The country is set to bask in the sun today on Good Friday as warm weather comes courtesy of a plume of balmy air straight from the Sahara.
Here’s the top five cheapest fans we could find so you can keep cool during the Easter heatwave
It means temperatures are set to soar to 23C – which is hotter than Ibiza.
Fans are a great way of keeping cool – especially if you’re wanting to avoid getting hot and sticky at night.
We’ve spotted some bargain fans from shops including Wilko, Argos and B&Q going from £5.50.
But before you splash out, remember to compare prices online.
You might find the same – or similar – item is cheaper elsewhere.
Plus, it’s only a saving if you were planning to buy the item in the first place – so make sure it is not an impulse buy.
You’ll also want to factor in the cost of running a fan overnight too – otherwise you might get a shock when you open up your next energy bill.
It’s especially important following staggering rises to energy cost after the price cap hike saw millions of families’ bills double.
