Loads of you asking us where you can get fans cheaply and quickly as you are sweltering in this unusually hot British Summer so we have put a thread together all in one place for you. If one's not in stock for you - move on to the next one until you get one.
Top tip is to place a bowl of ice or frozen water bottle in front of the fan to make it blow out even cooler air for you.
If you don't want to have a fan in the kids room, I have been soaking a cloth with water and ringing it out and laying it over the top of my little boy and that seems to be really helping him sleep.
B&Q 16" 3 speed pedestal fan was £19 now £16 - if none in store next day click and collect is available HERE
Argos Simple Value 7" desk fan £9.99 - stock varies depending where you are but worth a look to see if in stock near you.
Homebase have a lot of fans stock is dependant on area but prices start from £1.99 for a mini usb fan HOMEBASE FANS LOW TO HIGH
Currys have a selected of fans put your postcode in and see what is in stock for colllection for you. Prices start at £2.49 for a portable foam bladed fan

Is it the OP or people posting comments? :stuck_out_tongue:
Staples 9" superior desk fan was £11.99 now £8.99 -- the quality of this fan is really bad i bought it and i asked for a refund. The fan is flimsy and the hinge on the fan came bent so it wouldnt close the cage.

I bought the 20" brother to the 18" high velocity screwfix fan (admittedly from CPC instead). No regrets. It's noisy but by golly does it move air. Even makes a good substitute for using the dryer.
Eyeing up those usb desk fans with lust.

wouldnt bother with screwfix wanted a high vol one for last 4 days all 8 stores near me out of stock and can't have home delivered answer in short they have none.
only wanted one for work as i braze with gas and it is too hot, i have to go to ebay find a good one and the send out next day dpd hopefully here tommorrow.
surprised no one has even mentioned buying new from the bay?
be nice if mods actually on put up fans that are actually in stock not any old fan and company has none.

I know its not the cheapest but can highly recommend this fan
Just out of curiosity, does anyone know approximate running costs of fans?
"Dyson Pure Cool Link™ Tower Purifier Fan Blue - Brand New - 2 Year Guarantee £314.99 Dyson Ebay Outlet"

Tesco are running out, Homebase gone, Argos struggling
going to be a lot of fans on the second hand market in a month or so :wink:
