Bargain hunters were left open-mouthed when shopping in River Island when they noticed the staggering £10 sale.
With a variety of items included, such as coats and blazers, as well as kids’ clothes, shoppers went wild in the sale and took to social media to show off their bargain buys.
Posting on Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group, a private Facebook group with a whopping 2.4 million members, fashion fans shared their huge hauls.
One shopper named Victoria Molyneux shared a snap of her car boot, full to the brim with River Island shopping bags.
Alongside the post, Victoria penned: “River island all sale £10. Everything on sale is £10.”
She then explained: “Loads of nice items for myself, kids and family.”
In another post, upon arriving home, Victoria then shared snaps of her purchases.
The fashionista shared her post with the caption: “River island all sale £10.”
Victoria explained that she went to a River Island store in Northwich and was lucky enough to get her hands on a huge selection of coats, including a light pink fur jacket, a black gilet, a beige biker jacket and raincoat.
She also nabbed a black jacket with a fur hood and a cropped, hooded, black body warmer.
As well as this, the fashionista stocked up on blazers too, including a chic black blazer and one in bright red.
Not only this, but Victoria also got two tweed style jackets, one in cream and another in black.
And if you thought that was impressive, she also got a grey striped blazer and a linen blazer too, all for just £10 each.
History of River Island
IT’S a well-known name on the high street, but did you know that River Island used to be called something completely different?
The fashion retailer actually started out as two separate clothing stores, which only joined forces to become the brand we now know and love in 1988.
The company behind it dates back to 1948, when British entrepreneur Bernard Lewis opened up his first clothes shop in Mare Street, Hackney, in east London.
At the age of 20, he’d launched his debut fruit and vegetable store on Holloway Road in north London, but his foray into fashion proved to be his biggest success.
After expanding to five stores, Bernard called his business Lewis Separates.
During the 1970’s he opened up a chain of clothing stores – 70, to be precise – which he later called Chelsea Girl.
It quickly became one of the UK’s first chain female fashion boutiques.
By 1982, Bernard introduced a further store, called Concept Man, to his portfolio, which offered a range of menswear.
Six years later in 1988, a third brand was formed – this one being called River Island.
A few years later, both Chelsea Girl and Concept Man merged into this one company, which is now run by Bernard’s nephew, Ben Lewis.
Die-hard River Island fans will know that in 2011, Chelsea Girl was re-introduced as a capsule collection within stores.
The sale is nationwide, but is in store only, so you’ll need to move fast if you want to get your hands on some cheap buys.
The sale is while stocks last, for the rest of this week.

Social media users were open-mouthed at Victoria’s epic haul and many took to the comments to express this.
