Had a quick dash round the store, and this nail varnish addict couldn't resist the rainbow glitter Chit Chat varnish I picked up:

http://i.ebayimg.com/t/TECHNIC-NAIL-POLISH-VARNISH-IN-CARNIVAL-RAINBOW-CONNECTION-/00/s/MTYwMFgxMTk1/$(KGrHqRHJC!E9rVkbYEhBPjeW-c,yw~~60_35.JPG (Exactly the same as this, identical bottle, and a dupe for a more expensive polish whose name escapes me). I'll try uploading a decent pic of the Chit Chat version in daytime.

Here it is: http://tinypic.com/r/6egi81/6

Also saw Nando's and La Tasca sauces in jars in the Kirkintilloch Poundland. Oh, and a "Sleek" lipstick (they sell their makeup in Superdrug and their palettes get good reviews, that's all I know). http://www.superdrug.com/search?q=sleek+lipstick £4.99 on their site.

Its Technic Carnival, which in itself it reasonably cheap in Beautycare at around £1.79

Chit Chat also make a dupe for Technic Mermaid, which is the bright blue glitter. I have both the Chit Chat and Technic versions and they are identical.

On ebay they say it is similar to the OPI Muppets Rainbow Connection range.

Deal store yesterday had the Thermacare back wraps, single packet in the medicine aisle. My dad uses these all time, its size s-xl (one size) and they're brilliant. They last for upto 6 hrs, and you will pay over £6 for a pack of 2!! RRP £3.30 each or £1 in poundland! My mum stocked up whilst she could, so worth keeping an eye out if you suffer from a bad back

Item looks like this:

There are a few very similar, Kleancolors Afternoon Picnic is somewhat similar as well

From comparing the chit chat and the technic side by side though I'd wager they came out of the same factory.

As it is exposure to air that triggers the heat, don't keep them for ever and beware of any expiry dates?

I also got this masquerade mask in Argyle Street (I'm thinking of wearing it to a club or something, not THAT kind of club!!) http://tinypic.com/r/349b1hu/6

arghhhh tried to view your pic but it started playing the ad I hate most in the world with that stupid lady peeing herself, :mad: so I couldn't see your mask.

I got the head & shoulders ad when viewing the pic..

Unlucky dip I guess!!

There had been white wool in Poundland at a £1 a ball or buy three balls for the price of two but when I went back to get the wool there was none left. I cannot see it online. Does anyone know if it is available anywhere as I have looked two other Poundland stores and neither stocked wool?
