Vicki, who posts under the Instagram handle @elibankhousebuild, took to Instagram to show off the popular holiday buy.

Vicki captioned her clip: “And it’s giving all the holiday vibes!

“The closest thing to real I’ve ever seen and Perfect for any cosy corner, festive shelf, or just making your space merry & bright.

“Who else needs one?!”

The cute little tree is retailing for only €50 in stores.

It comes pre lit so shoppers can avoid the fuss with cables.

Vicki also added a personal touch by wrapping a thick red velvet ribbon around the rustic burlap base of the tree.

She said: “POV: You just found the mini Christmas tree of the season.”

The post caused a frenzy online with fans flocking to Dunnes Stores to grab one for their homes.

One follower commented: “Just got one but I might need 20 more.”

Another added: “Hope to get one. Didn’t see them in my local Dunnes today, hopefully not sold out.”

A third fan revealed: “Awh, already sold out online.”

While someone else joked: “I really, really didn’t need any more decorations but now I do.”

The tree’s compact size makes it ideal for smaller spaces, adding a festive touch without taking up too much room.

The four foot Prelit Burlap Tree is perfect for creating a cosy, holiday atmosphere anywhere in your home.

It is designed to fit perfectly in smaller spaces while still bringing a touch of festive cheer.

With the Christmas countdown well underway, it seems this little tree is the perfect way to deck your halls on a budget.

The retailer has also encouraged customers to check availability in-store, as the tree is proving to be a sell-out success this year.

But if you’re hoping to snag one, you might want to act fast.

These trees are flying off the shelves faster than Santa’s sleigh on Christmas Eve!

THE HISTORY OF DUNNES STORES

DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 - and it was an instant hit.

Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland’s first ‘shopping frenzy’.

During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne’s ‘Better Value’ bargains.

Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 – starting with apples and oranges.

The retailer said: “Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.

“Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.

“Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas.”

The retailer’s first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.

They added: “In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.

“Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England.”

Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.

Football star

Ella was born on April 28, 2000, and grew up in Sidcup.

She started her football career when she joined Millwall’s youth squad and later moved up to their first team.

Her impressive action on the pitch eventually landed her a spot on the England squad.

The footballer enjoyed a stint at Charlton Athletic, before playing for Ipswich.

Ella and Grace’s romance

In May 2024, Grace Keeling announced that she was dating a female footballer but didn’t reveal her partner’s name.

Just a month later, it was revealed that Grace’s beau played for England.

Fans were clamouring to know who the famous podcaster’s girlfriend was and, eventually, the Sun revealed that Grace and Ella were in relationship.

A source exclusively told The Sun: “GK has been seeing Ella for a while but they are very much official now.

“They grew even closer on holiday in Benidorm and GK has met all her family.

“She’s really happy and they are having so much fun together.”

Grace’s previous relationship

Before dating Ella, GK was in a relationship with TikTok star Billy Hunt.

Billy joined her on the Saving Grace podcast and GK admitted that she “launched” herself at the internet personality.

Grace admitted: “So my version of events.

“Joe Baggs had a party. [Billy was] the only straight man there, [I] launched myself at him. It’s been history ever since.”

However, they broke up just seven months later.

Grace will be joined by N-Dubz star Tulisa, Colleen Rooney and Strictly star Oti Mabuse.

The show is known for its Bushtucker trials, which sees celebrities dosed with bugs and forced to eat various parts of different animals.

Neymar buys £43million penthouse in exclusive Bugatti block in Dubai with private car elevator straight to his door

NEYMAR has given his property portfolio the ultimate lift – just as his career could be on the way down.

The Brazil legend swooped to buy a £43million penthouse in Dubai – complete with a private car elevator to his door.

Neymar’s Al-Hilal future is in doubt as injury has reduced him to seven appearances in 15 months on a £2.5m-a-week contract.

But it hasn’t stopped the Saudi Pro League flop, 32, purchasing a futuristic pad in the neighbouring United Arab Emirates that is jaw-dropping even by his standards of luxury.

Building developer Binghatti. say the 128-cap ex-Barcelona striker has snapped up one of the so-called Sky Mansions in the exclusive Bugatti Residences block.

Naturally, there’s a private swimming pool with sweeping views of downtown Dubai.

And there’s also no need to step out of your vehicle to rise to your own mansion – thanks to personal elevators.

Binghatti say the setting “pays homage to the French Riviera”.

They also boast: “Floor-to-ceiling windows flood each residence with natural light supported by high ceiling and open-plan living spaces, creating an airy and spacious atmosphere.”

A fitness centre and members-only club are included too.

But Al-Hilal will be more concerned about how often Neymar can appear on the pitch than how he will get on with his new neighbours when he’s in Dubai.

There’s growing speculation the Saudi top-flight leaders are looking to offload the ex-PSG star, even before his contract expires next summer.

Rejoining Barcelona was mentioned at one point, but most of the current talk involves a return to his home country.

However, Palmeiras ruthlessly ruled out interest due to his fitness problems, with club president Leila Pereira saying they are “not a medical department”.

And Neymar’s agent has dampened rumours of a move back to his first club Santos.

But amid all his injury issues, one thing has remained stable for the three-time Champions League winner.

That’s his opulent lifestyle and habits.

Just weeks ago he purchased waterfront land in Miami for £20.5m.

Inevitably, it sparked transfer links with David Beckham’s Inter Miami surged, notably the possibility of recreating Barcelona’s famous “MSN” front three with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez.

Neymar is also now back with his model partner Bruna Biancardi, the mother of his daughter Mavie.

The couple are far from coy in sharing pictures from private jets and exotic holidays.

He’s reportedly lined up his own £7m private island off the coast of Brazil, according to reports.

The Canadian owner of the six-acre hideaway off a port town in Rio de Janeiro is said to have cut the price by more than £3m.

That would still mean Neymar having to dig deep for about three weeks’ pay!

However, he insists playing football is his greatest stimulation, so he’s keen to press the button on his future and rise again.
