One shopper spotted the deal in their local branch, posting a photo of it on the group.
The offer was so good, they snapped up two of the energy-saving devices.
They said: "Don't often find bargains but here's one from B&M. Three litre tower air fryer £5!"
The post has quickly notched up over 500 likes and comments from bargain hunters looking for their next steal.

One said "what a bargain" while another added "three litre? Absolute bargain for one person."
A third chimed in: "Amazing bargain."
Bear in mind, you might not be able to find the air fryer for £5 in your local B&M as branches tend to reduce stock like this independently.
You could try calling your local stores to see if they have any in stock though.

How to compare prices to get the best deal
JUST because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn't mean it's always a good deal.
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.
Here are some that we recommend:
- 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.
- logs the history of how much something costs from over 3,000 different retailers, including Argos, Amazon, eBay and the supermarkets. Once you select an individual product you can quickly compare which stores have the best price and which have it in stock.
- is another website that lets you compare prices between retailers. All shoppers need to do is search for the item they need and the website will rank them from the cheapest to the most expensive one.
- only works on goods being sold on Amazon. To use it, type in the URL of the product you want to check the price of.

Bear in mind too, air fryers aren't always cheaper to use than ovens, as warned by Martin Lewis.
How to 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.
According to one ex-B&M manager, you'll want to visit your local branch at 10am on a Wednesday too.
