On her @fannyannieofficial page, she showed inside the tent and said: “Money doesn’t buy happiness, but it brought me a bubble tent which makes me really happy.
“My pop up council house conservatory.”
She picked up the Vevor tent from eBay for the bargain price, and set about making it look like a pretty lounge.
She even added fake wisteria to make it look attractive.
Considering the average price for a standard conservatory is between £15,000 and £20,000, many people felt like she had the bargain of the century.
Annie added: “Mine is held down well, I would encourage anyone to buy one.
“I’m hoping it’s secure enough to last winter.”
Many people were quick to comment, with one adding: “This under the rain must be bliss.”
Another wrote: “I love what you’ve done inside it giving me loads of ideas for when ours comes.”
Annie gave some more information to people impressed with the idea.
She shared: “I did look on eBay. I think that the tent is actually sold out at the minute, so well done, guys.
“You cleared all the stock.”
She added that she uses an extension lead to power the the TV in the tent, and said that she finds it “very warm” when she is sitting inside.
Annie continued: “Yes, it’s very warm when the doors are closed.
“Even tastes like a greenhouse in here.”

She explained that she opens both the doors for ventilation on hot days, but “fortunately lives near the coast.”
Annie added: “It stays warm on cold days, and absolutely piping on hot days.”
One person replied: “Amazing could live in that.”
