HOME Bargains has been sending shoppers into a frenzy this spring with its adorable garden decor – from the viral hot air balloon solar lights to heart-shaped wreaths.
But it appears that the discount retailer has outdone itself with an “absolutely gorgeous” new addition.
And it’s so cute, in fact, that many people are displaying it inside their home instead of outdoors.
The £24.99 Hattie the Highland Cow figure stands at around two feet tall and has been designed to survive the unpredictable UK weather.
Its product description reads: “Bring a bit of countryside charm to your garden with our gorgeous Jardin Hattie The Highland Cow!
“This adorable cow adds a fun, rustic touch to your garden, balcony, or even indoors.

“Made to last, Hattie is built to handle the outdoors while still looking adorable.
“Her unique design makes her the perfect conversation starter and a lovely addition to any spot in your home or garden.”
Unsurprisingly, shoppers have already been racing to get their hands on the cute cow.
Posting on the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook, which boasts 2.6million members, delighted Lyn showed off her new buy as she said: “I couldn’t resist buying this beautiful Highland cattle £24.99 at Home Bargains.

“He’s too nice to go outside so he’s in my living room, looks pretty good.”
Other shoppers have agreed that the highland cow makes the perfect home decor.
One said: “I got mine for my birthday he sits nicely in my front room.”
“This would look lovely in your sitting room”, someone else told a pal.
A third gushed: “Omg S saw this yesterday, I def need one. I adore highland cows.”
“He’d look ace in the hallway”, insisted a fourth.
A fifth added: “I have one as well they are just fabulous.”
Meanwhile, a sixth chimed in: “Oh my gosh that’s absolutely gorgeous.”
And if £24.99 is out of your price range, there is also a slightly smaller version available for £9.99.
Both figures are currently sold out on the website, however, so you’ll need to leg it to your nearest Home Bargains to pick one up.
While you’re in store, there’s also a pretty garden solar you might want to keep an eye out for.
Especially if you’d like your outdoor space to feel like “the cutest thing ever” in time for those BBQs and sunbathing sessions.
And it will look perfect on your garden, pathway, patio, or driveway.
Sharing pictures of the Highland Cow Crackle Ball Solar Light in action on Facebook, staff at one Home Bargains store said: “Sorry but are you actually ready for this?
“Our Highland Cow range just keeps getting better, Hattie the Highland Cow is ready to light up your garden this summer.”
The playful solar light features energy-efficient LED bulbs, and automatically turns on at dusk and off at dawn, offering long-lasting illumination without adding to your energy bill.

Powered by the sun, the solar panel absorbs sunlight during the day to light up your garden, pathway, patio, or driveway at night – with no wiring or batteries required.
And the best part? It’s only £4.99.
How to find gardening bargains
Doing up your garden to enjoy on warm and sunny days needn’t cost the earth.
Sun Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to get a top deal on items for the garden…
You can bag big savings on plants, shrubs and flowers, as well as gardening tools and furniture.
Many retailers have flash sales across entire seasonal ranges – often these promotions tie into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends, so keep a lookout.
Sign up to mailing lists of your favourite brands and you’ll be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too.
Use a price comparison site to search out the best value items.
And keep a close eye on the specialbuys at Aldi and middle of Lidl drops which drop a couple of times a week and usually mean great value seasonal items for your outdoor areas.
If you are not in a hurry to buy an item, try adding it to the shopping cart online and leaving it for a couple of days.
Sometimes big brands will try to tempt you into the sale by offering you a discount.
And always check if you can get cashback before paying.
It’s especially worth using sites such as Topcashback, Quidco and app Jamdoughnut when buying bigger ticket items such as garden furniture as you’ll get a nice kickback.
