Man shares 'genius' £15 B&M hack for bedroom that will keep you cool while you sleep

As temperatures are expected to keep on soaring later this week and next, the Met Office has issued an extreme heat warning for weather that could be "too hot to work in".

Brits are, therefore, looking for cheap and alternative ways to stay cool during the scorching temperatures.

TikTok star @ladbabyofficial has taken alternative means to a whole other level as he shared his latest purchase from bargain retailer B&M - a cooling mat for pets.

The social media user put his thinking cap to good use with a cost-effective £15 product - which is most commonly used for dogs.

It scored well for the B&M customers as he prepped for Sunday's temperature - which is expected to swelter at 43C.

B&M reposted the video to their channel - where the clip was witnessed by more than 1.6m viewers - who are potentially about to get a lot cooler.

"I'll be back with an epic HACK! Absolute genius I'm telling ya mate," he captioned the clip.

Prepped and ready to step into the bargain store, the social media star gushed: "This is your bedroom heat summer hack mate - it's happening!"

The video soon cut to the LadBaby, real name Mark Ian Hoyle, who was seen holding the iconic orange and blue carrier bag.

Ahead of revealing the bedroom accessory, he made sure that the essential item had the grand reveal that it needed.

He opened the door to a bedroom and said: "Welcome to the chill max 3000."

The blue patterned cooling items were placed on top of the bed sheets - but underneath the covers - ready to be slept on.

"You put them in the bed like this," he demonstrated as he pulled back the covers.

"You get in like this..."

The TikTok star looked content and prepped for his cool night of sleep with his new unique purchase.

His partner even joked that the product looks like a "pool float".

After clarifying that the product was indeed meant for dogs - it was no laughing matter when she tried the game-changing product.

The social star joked: "If it's good enough for dogs, it's good enough for me and you babe!"

"No, this is genius!" The partner gushed as she tried the product.

Users took to the comment section to share their thoughts on the alternative hack - and in a shocking turn of events, some users have even claimed that they've been using the hack for "years".

One commented: "They are brilliant They work for me because I get too hot at night and it cools me down I get a good night's sleep and night time and thank you."

"That’s actually genius," a second user penned.

B&M responded: "Agreed!!"

"I’ve done it for years and it’s the best thing ever," another user added.

A fourth penned: "Had them for a couple of years now. you can also get ones for the pillow as well."
