Where can I buy some cheap red throws?

Can't afford to recover sofas, but want a revamp of living room.

Ordered some off Dunelm website, with some matching and co-ordinating cushions. Cushions have been delivered, but they don't have any throws left.

Now have large pile of cream, red, chocolate cushions sitting on a yellow sofa. Can anyone help?

I don't want burgandy/wine, just a slightly dark red (but deffo not terracotta)

Ikea? Might even do mail order - they do to some places now.

red fleece from a fabric shop?

I have had some Ikea fleece throws for £2 or £3 before now but don't know if they do red ones

I will check Ikea, but I think I looked there online, and they didn't do them online. They do deliver to our address, but to visit, the nearest is 35 miles away.

Red fleece would be an option, but the problem is buying it. I teach textiles, and finding decent cheap fabric shops is a real problem for all my students

That Ikea thing is exactly what I want, but not available online of course

I think I saw some cheapish ones in M&S last week?

HAVE A LOOK IN PRIMARK. I bought two gorgeous bright red polka dot blankets/throws last week. They had lots of others. All about £4 each.

Have u tried asda? Matalan? Woolworths? Au naturale?

Amazon has this but describes itself as 'burgundy' so may be too dark.
Various sizes, but still look quite dark.
These are on bogof.
With fringes.
