The festive staple features a red robin on the front, with holly around the edges.

And shoppers couldn't believe their eyes when its new owner shared the find online.

"Only 10p at B&M," the bargain hunter wrote on Facebook.

Their post sparked a flurry of comments, with one person adding: "I'll give you 20p!!!! I want one!!! Sob! Well done xxxx".

Another said: "I want one. Not seen these in before."

A third wrote: "Aw lovely I want a new gravy boat for Christmas too have to scan the local B&M."

But some were not convinced that the deal was as good as it seems.

A suspicious shopper thinks: "This will be last year's stock."

It comes as B&M shoppers have spotted a range of Christmas deals in stores over the past few weeks.

The bargain retailer cut the price of its ornaments to 50p and lights to £1.50, giving customers a chance to save cash ahead of the big day.

You can browse all the sale items on the B&M website but sadly the retailer doesn’t offer online shopping.

To find the cheapest items, click on the right category – for example, Christmas lights – and search from lowest to highest price.

Once you've found what you're looking for, you'll need to head to your nearest B&M to buy it.

B&M has over 700 stores across the UK.

How to shop around for the best bargain

When hunting for a deal it is important to shop around to make sure you are not being overcharged.

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.

For example, 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.

Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock.

How to save money on Christmas shopping

Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how you can save money on your Christmas shopping.

Limit the amount of presents - buying presents for all your family and friends can cost a bomb.

Instead, why not organise a Secret Santa between your inner circles so you're not having to buy multiple presents.

Plan ahead - if you've got the stamina and budget, it's worth buying your Christmas presents for the following year in the January sales.

Make sure you shop around for the best deals by using price comparison sites so you're not forking out more than you should though.

Buy in Boxing Day sales - some retailers start their main Christmas sales early so you can actually snap up a bargain before December 25.

Delivery may cost you a bit more, but it can be worth it if the savings are decent.

Shop via outlet stores - you can save loads of money shopping via outlet stores like Amazon Warehouse or Office Offcuts.

They work by selling returned or slightly damaged products at a discounted rate, but usually any wear and tear is minor.
