Sharing a picture of the receipt, she said: "Barcode on second image, this was Cumbernauld store - not here to argue about how they are showing online."
All you need to do to set up the tiles is to level the base of the ground.
If you are screwing into joists, manufacturers recommend to make sure to drill holes first before placing the screws to prevent wood from cracking.
The post has now gathered hundreds of likes on social media with dozens of money-savers flocking to the comments section.
Many tagged their pals and family members to rush and nab theirs.
One user said: "This is what I mean for along the fence."
Another added: "We need a trip to ASAP to B&Q and the flooring place."
It comes as B&M slashed the price on a range of summer garden must-haves just in time for those bank holiday get-togethers.
The supermarket is offering deals for as much as 50% off heaters and fire pits.
How else can I save money at B&M?
Shoppers have saved hundreds of pounds a year by using B&M's scanner app.
The scanner lets you see if an item's price is cheaper than advertised on the shop floor label.
Products that are typically discounted are seasonal items and old stock that B&M is trying to shift.
The app is free to download off the B&M Stores mobile app via Google Play or the Apple App Store.
