Poundland Bargain Thread -

Spotted today...

International Quick Drying Floor Paint - 750ml tin
International Tile Paint - 750ml tin

Wilkos sell these ranges for approx £12 (floor) & £20 (tile) a tin! Some tins had a tiny bit of rust on them and the choice of colours was very limited so I reckon it's probably old stock of discontinued colours but seems a bargain for a quid!

Taken a punt on the Chestnut Brown floor paint - if paying full price I wouldn't choose that colour but it's for a garden outbuilding so not too fussed about the floor colour when I'd rather spend my money on more exciting things

Also 500ml tins of Hammerite Radiator 'Shades' Paint which come in Dulux colours. Had a few different shades including a cream colour.

Also spotted some nice Coca-Cola trays - round, metal, drinks-type trays with red & white Coca Cola design.

Especially nice for anyone who loves retro American diner type stuff. I'm going to add one to a big hamper of American themed goodies as a Christmas gift

Wow autumngirl, that's a great find and I'm loving the idea of an American themed hamper!

saw brio branded wooden train carriages in poundland uxbridge today, they make a noise when you press it. quite good as these type of things are normally quite expensive and brio is a v good brand. unfortunately only had one type available, not a variety

Hi all, in The Mirror today they are claiming to have bought Cath Kidston covers for the Blackberry Curve from Poundland! Anyone seen any?
thanks

No, I went searching for a BB cover on Thurs in Stratford - plenty of nice designs, but no KC.

I needed a wallpaper edge roller. I already have one but it's in the garage somewhere and I can't find it. Anyway, Wilko's cheapest was £2.60 but it had a long handle that looked awkward to use. Nipped to Poundland and got one of theirs for a quid. The rollers are a bit variable in flatness so I had to pick through about a dozen to get the best one. They also have a raised seam which needed to be fettled with some sandpaper. Overall a good buy though and it did the job I bought it for.

Got some Nature Valley granola bars today they had Ginger Nut Crunch which are yummy & a chewy berry 1. £2.39 in supermarkets. Also they have bag's of 3 hair accessories, they are worth having a look at I picked 1 up with a box of 52 multicoloured polybands a nice hair bobble & a card with 2 satiny scrunchies (hey they're coming back) which were marked £5.50.
Also I got a till split with a £! off £10 spend valid until 31/10/12. So don't just dump your receipt.
