IN recent years, shoppers have gone wild for Christmas gonks – and it appears this December will be no different.
The Range has shared how it has already started selling the popular festive gnomes ahead of the yuletide season, and they are limiting how many people can buy.

They uploaded a photo of the gonks which are dressed like mini Father Christmases and stand 153cm tall.
The shop wrote on Facebook: “Only 1 trolley/ 6 Gonks per customer & no fighting over these please.
“THE SECRETS OUT. Our Red Sparkle Santa Gonks are HALF-PRICE today and down to £12.99 each!!”
“Available IN-STORES & ONLINE… RUN , do not walk!”
Currently bargain hunters can get them for even cheaper than when the post went up, as the gonks are £12.49 on The Range website.
Fans seemed delighted by the gonks arriving in stores and seemed desperate to get their hands on one.
One person wrote: “I WOULD LOVE THESE.”
Another added: “My dream trolley.”
And a third commented: “Want one.”
However, the gonks have clearly divided shoppers – with some people saying they weren’t too fussed.

A second asked: “When did gonks become a christmas thing.”
According to the website, the gonks are “ideal for Christmas decor” and are made from a soft plush material and have extendable legs.

“This charming gonk features a glittering red outfit, making it an eye-catching addition to any festive display.
“Whether placed on a mantelpiece or by a tree, this Santa Gonk brings warmth and joy to your holiday decorations.”
