    Went into the Deal store today and got 4 disney hard cover books! RRP on the back is £2.99. Really nice quality looking books. The front cover of each has a cut out window with the main character inside. Also a shiny pattern on a matt background. Sorry i can't get a photo up at the moment, but i bought 4 out of 5 and will be checking daily for any more! :D

    They had:
    Peter Pan
    The Lion Kind
    101 Dalmations
    The Jungle Book
    Beauty and the Beast

    Just back on the touchscreen gloves subject, I've been into Home Bargains today and they had them in little boxes at £1.49. Opened the box and had a good look and these are twice as thick as the Poundland ones and also a lot bigger. They are only available in black.
    Personally I'd recommend paying the extra 50p for the HB ones, much better quality!

    There was a retweeted pic on their twitter feed yesterday & those gloves were white, so maybe they will have more colours coming in.

    Ohhh, well only black ones in the Freeport Stoke store, but bought myself a pair as they are a lot warmer :)

    OH bought me another pair of Purple ones from poundland the other day as well so I shan't run out of gloves this winter :D

    I know this is poundland thread but continuing from the comments and pic above re gloves!!! Today they (HB) had the gloves in boxes as above and also some phone gloves hanging on a rack. These were black with grey fingers or cream with brown fingers. They were 99p a pair but nowhere near as thick as the one in the box but they were made by the same company as above - phone tech! Have not seen cream ones before.
    No buying toiletries challenge - possibly for most of 2011,2012,2013,2014,2015!
    £1 in sealed pot for each UU (2011 135/500:D) 2012 have UU 130/400 (never realised I had a mini chemist under my bed!!!) :rotfl:2013 UU 156/350. 2014 UU 197/250 2015 UU 16/100

    Nursing is a work of heart by angels in comfortable shoes!!! :)

    The boxed ones really are thick aren't they? Very warm and snugly. I've given my poundland ones to DD :)

    They don't have these gloves in my Poundland and there is no Home Bargains near me so I bought some black ones from Primark for £1.50. Lovely and warm.
