    That's the question - if it works well. I wasted ££s on various remotes that always had something missing on them until I discovered the Logitech Harmony range. Not cheap but, for once, something that actually works so I don't grudge the money.

    We have bought one of these before and the stupid thing ended up in the bin as it didn't work.

    Been in Lincoln store today :)

    I LOVE poundland.

    I picked up:

    Lots of pairs of knee length/over the knee stripy or argyle socks, these are stretchy and lovely. I have tons of these, always get them from there. Lots of nice bright colours in atm. They also have slouch socks in, the dance type ones.

    Lots of picnicware in, I bought a plastic large salad bowl with servers included, a pack of 6 tumblers and a divider plate (melamine) which will be fantastic for my party this week.

    Chit Chat concealer, looks to be decent, and you get a fair amount of it. I resent paying over £3 for it as I get through it so quickly so was pleased to find this. They do a foundation too but dont know what it is like.

    Lots of bits in for those suffering from colds/allergies at the moment, I picked up max strength decongestant tablets and vapour rub with free inhaler. Also got a bright pink pill organiser.

    Got a nice shower mat too, for the price is good enough for me being a student and is brightly coloured too.

    Noticed they had gorgeous bits in for gardens - lovely signs to hang up saying 'mums garden' etc, definitely worth a look.

    Will have a look tomorrow thanks as SS spent £3 of her own money today on some from Primark & was then very upset as she got them out of the bag at home & they instantly broke!
    Take em back, and get a refund then go to poundland and buy 3 pairs:D:D

    The sunglasses in the Dundee store aren't Foster Grant ones. My DD still picked a pink pair & wore them on the way home (she's 4) she was running on the way home fell over bust her nose :eek: and the paint is scratched off the bridge of the sunglasses, :cool: poor darling.
    Booo!!!
  • Do you mean the really mini remotes? Ahh memories... Sneaking them into places with TVs and changing channel, switching off and on, volume up and down etc. Worked like a charm :D

    Aw Violetta, that's a shame, probably takes a bit of getting used to walking around at that age with shades on, it's so long ago for me I've forgotten.

    I've never found Poundland shades to fit me, I have a big head! but DD and DH have both had shades from there, DH loves his 'terminator' style ones, DD can normally find something fashionable that fits her (she's 11 so adult sizes fit her)

    That way we can replace them every year, as the UV protection does wear out with age, can't remember where I read that. For a pound each I think they're great!
