Home Bargains shoppers praise 'life-saving' gadget that keeps you cool in summer

With Scotland set to bake in sunny 21C temperatures over the coming days, it is safe to say that the Scottish summer is officially here for us to enjoy.

While we all want to take advantage of the heat whenever we can, quite a few of us might want to keep a bit of breeze to cool down whenever it gets too hot.

Which is exactly why quite a few shoppers have been raving about a neck fan from Home Bargains, with some calling it a "life saver" for the heat.

The popular budget retailer's Accelerate Hands-Free Wearable Neck Fan is back on store shelves after being extremely popular with shoppers last year.

Priced at just £6.99, shoppers are raving about the "brilliant" gadget for keeping them cool, as well as saving on electricity they would run to keep the heat down.

The portable fan is available in a black and red colour and can be easily charged up by using a USB device, meaning that you don't have the added costs of putting in batteries.

The nifty device will also come in handy for any outdoor activities you have planned this year, with Home Bargains saying their fan is "perfect for trekking, hiking, bike riding, fishing, camping, outdoor, outages and more."

A snap sharing the nifty device went viral after it was shared by one savvy shopper on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK Group on Facebook.

The shopper captioned the snap: "£6.99 in #homebargains gosport. If like me your a care worker... these may just help with the heat."

Nearly 3,000 shoppers took to the comments section to rave about the budget device, with many calling it "brilliant" for those who work in the warmer conditions.
