Many people will pop into B&M stores to pick up just a couple of things, but it can be easy to get wrapped up and start grabbing everything from the shelves.
You might find yourself walking through the store with your arms full of items and struggling to carry them all.
You can either go all the way back to the shop’s entrance to pick up a basket or struggle to carry everything to the checkout.
After seeing shoppers walking through its stores with so many products, B&M has made a change to its stores that fans are calling “genius”.
How has B&M changed its stores?
In a video posted to TikTok, B&M has revealed it is adding baskets to the end of the middle aisles in the store as well as at the entrance.
The video was captioned with “game changer” and the text on it read: “When we decided to put baskets in the middle of the aisles.”
Fans of the store have flooded the video’s comments with praise for the change with one saying: “I saw these yesterday, with my hands full of stuff, and thought ‘genius’.
“Why did it take this long?
“No more trudging back to the doors for a basket!
“Plus, finally pull along ones.”
Another user commented: “If I had a pound for every time my mother-in-law says half way around ‘we should have got a basket’.
“Love this idea.”
Another fan has asked for trolleys to be added to the middle aisles as well for when people need to “upgrade”.
Others have already used the baskets in the middle aisle with one person saying: “Helped a girl out when everything was falling out of my hands.”
