The Silvercrest Bladeless Tower Fan is currently on offer for £54.99 when you use the Lidl Plus app.
That's £15 off its regular price of £69.99.
In comparison, it's £225 cheaper than the popular Dyson Cool Tower Fan, which will set you back a hefty £280.
Shoppers reckon Lidl's version does the job just as well, with many calling it a 'game-changer' in the heat.
One customer said: 'Bought this today and it's amazing, super quiet and doesn't take up much space.'
Another added: 'Exactly like a Dyson but a fraction of the price. Total win.'
While a third chimed in: ' This is just what I needed.'
The Silvercrest tower boasts 20 speed settings, four oscillation angles, a timer of up to eight hours and four modes including sleep and power.
It's bladeless, making it safer for kids and pets and a breeze to clean.
It even comes with a stylish matte finish, a non-slip base, and a three-year warranty, proving you don't have to pay Dyson prices for designer fan features.
Five Lidl rosés you need this summer, according to a wine expert - a £6.99 buy is as light & crispy as £22 Whispering Angel
But you'll have to be quick. Lidl's offer is in-store only, and like all their top deals, stock is limited and once it's gone, it's gone.
The £15 discount is only valid from June 1 to June 7, so don't hang about.
It's also worth calling ahead to make sure your local branch still has it in stock.
Fan deals
Lidl's not the only retailer flogging bargain fans this week.
Poundland is selling a mini desk fan for just £3, one of the cheapest options around. Asda has handheld fans from £1.50 and a bigger nine-inch desk fan for £15.
Aldi shoppers are raving about a portable air cooler with LED lights for just £14.99.
It's small, rechargeable and comes with a carry handle.
Lidl also has a Silvercrest desk fan for £29.99 – or £19.99 with the app.
It's being called a dupe of a £100 Russell Hobbs model and includes a remote control.
Over at Home Bargains, there's a wearable neck fan for £4.99 and a 32-inch tower fan for £19.99, beating Dunelm's price by a tenner.
Before buying, it's always worth using tools like PriceSpy, Idealo, or CamelCamelCamel to check you're getting the best deal.
These compare prices and track discounts over time, so you can spot a genuine bargain and avoid falling for fake "sales."
Just remember to factor in delivery fees if you're shopping online, and always check stock levels before heading to the shops.
With temps rising and stocks flying, the best deals won't stick around for long.

Donald Trump vows to unleash ‘every tool in our arsenal' in price row with British drug firms
Around £16 billion was wiped off shares in the sector across Europe after the President's comments TRUMP THREAT Donald Trump vows to unleash 'every tool in our arsenal' in price row with British drug firms Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) DONALD Trump insists he will unleash 'every tool in our arsenal' if British drug companies don't cut their prices within 60 days. The US President waged war with a total of seventeen firms demanding 'binding commitments' to match the lower prices offered to developing countries. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up The move comes as the White House hit dozens of countries with a fresh slew of tariffs including punishing levies on neighbour Canada. Two UK drug firms, AstraZeneca and GSK, caught up in the pharma row saw their share price drop as Trump aims to lower prices for American citizens. The move could even have damaging consequences for the NHS whose leverage with suppliers due to its size could be reduced. Mr Trump has demanded the firms apply their 'most favoured nation' rates to Medicaid which is the health system for low-income Americans. READ MORE ON DONALD TRUMP GOT TRUMPED Moment Trump 'throws shade' at Meghan and Harry during Starmer press conference He said: 'Make no mistake: a collaborative effort towards achieving global pricing parity would be the most effective path for companies, the government, and American patients. In a letter to the firms, he said: 'But if you refuse to step up we will deploy every tool in our arsenal to protect American families from continued abusive drug pricing practices. 'Americans are demanding lower drug prices, and they need them today.' Around £16 billion was wiped off shares in the sector across Europe as fears grow higher prices in the rest of the world will fund the US reductions. The move comes after Trump said back in May that he wanted drug prices in the US to be reduced by 80 per cent. Moment Trump 'throws shade' at Meghan and Harry during Starmer press conference But experts appeared wary that he has the authority to reduce prices and a previous effort in his first term failed in court. At the time, he said the tactics were 'subsidising socialism' abroad in paying for the same pills from the same factories, which led to spiralling prices at home. The warning came as Mr Trump signed an executive order applying a wave of tariffs to 68 countries and the European Union. Canada was hit with levies – up to 35 per cent from 25 per cent - due to its lack of co-operation in stopping flow of illegal drugs and fentanyl into America. Their PM Mark Carney said that his country was 'making historic investments in border security to arrest drag traffickers and end migrant smuggling'. Switzerland will also keep negotiating with the US after their tariff rate hit 39 per cent, which was far higher than they anticipated.

On Universal Credit? How you can save £100s on your household bills this summer
One trick can potentially save you more than £2,000 a year TO YOUR BENEFIT On Universal Credit? How you can save £100s on your household bills this summer Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) YOU can save thousands of pounds on your household bills this summer if you're on Universal Credit. The benefit is paid out monthly to people who are struggling with day-to-day living costs - but it also entitles claimants to extra help. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 You could save on your energy bills, for example, by opting for a social tariff Credit: EPA If you're wanting to save, here are the things you should know about… Cheaper broadband - save £190 a year Some broadband providers offer cheaper tariffs for people on benefits. For example, Virgin Media Essentials has a tariff for £12.50 a month - a huge £137.88 cheaper per year versus a regular Virgin package. BT Home Essentials costs £15 per month for fibre and calls. According to Uswitch, the average broadband bill in the UK is £26.39/month – and switching to the cheapest social tariff could save you £196.68 per year. You should be able to get a social tariff if you're on Universal Credit, Pension Credit or equivalent benefits. You can search for broadband social tariff deals here: Council tax reduction - save up to £2,280 If you're on Universal Credit you can apply for a reduction to your council tax bill - and you might not even have to pay at all. Every local authority sets its own rules but many help out low-income households by reducing council tax bills significantly. In Manchester, households on Universal Credit can get up to 100% off their council tax. Disability benefit explained - what you can claim Meanwhile Bristol offers up to 90% for most working-age households on benefits. The average Band D council tax in England for 2025-26 is now £2,280 - so if you don't have to pay council tax, that's an indicator of how much you could save. Am I entitled to Universal Credit? According to the GOV website, if you're on a low income or need help with your living costs, then you could be entitled to Universal Credit. To claim, you must live in the UK, be aged 18 or over (with some exceptions if you're 15 to 17), be under State Pension age, and have £16,000 or less in money, savings and investments. Other circumstances are if you are out of work, or unable to work, for example because of a health condition. Water bill help - save hundreds Water companies also offer social tariffs or capped rates for those on Universal Credit and similar benefits. The schemes vary by supplier and the amount you can save will also depend on your usage. But there is the potential to save hundreds of pounds this way. For example, Affinity Water caps bills at £119.50/year for eligible households. United Utilities offers up to 50% off for households with high usage or medical needs. The average water bill in England and Wales is roughly £603 per year, according to Discover Water - so again that gives you an idea of how much you could save. Energy grants - save up to £1,500 Several energy suppliers offer grants to help customers on low incomes clear energy debts or cover bills. British Gas has an Energy Trust offering grants of up to £1,500 even if you're not a British Gas customer. You can apply online at Next Energy Fund provides help with white goods and bill support. These grants don't need to be repaid but you'll usually need to show proof of income, provide meter readings and explain your situation. Household Support Fund – save up to £500 The Household Support Fund is a pot of cash that the Government has allocated to council across England. It's aimed at helping out families in need, but the payouts and eligibility vary by each council. Some offer food vouchers or help with energy bills, while others give out cash grants. Brent Council offers up to £500 for struggling families, while Doncaster pays between £100 and £300 to families on Universal Credit. Ribble Valley gives food vouchers worth £200 to £500 to households earning under £35,000. You'll need to check your local authority's website to find out what it offers and whether you could be eligible. The easiest way is to Google your council name plus "Household Support Fund". Cheaper phone bills - save hundreds You can also get social tariffs with your mobile phone provider. These 'social' or 'essential' tariffs offer the same service as regular packages but at a significantly lower price. They typically come with no long-term contracts, a guarantee of no mid-contract price hikes, and two of the three providers even include free roaming in Europe. O2's Essential Plan costs just £10 a month and gives you 10GB of data with unlimited calls and texts. Meanwhile, SMARTY's Social Tariff provides unlimited data, calls, and texts for £12 a month.
