    I agree but don't feel too strongly about it. Brands mean little to me, which is why I shop at Poundland in the first place.
    Completely agree but this is a blatant lie designed to trick people into believing something is better than it is. Surely this is illegal?

    There was one product that was new to the range, I think, possibly that was the one designed by Jane Asher. That would enable them to say it was Jane Asher designed. They wouldn't be alone in pulling a stunt like that.

    Maybe my store simply hasn't stocked this range before, but I've never seen the cake pops mould or sticks, or the tongs. In fact, as I recall the display, the only familiar item was the cake box. Is yours all on a separate gondola end to the rest of the cooking stuff?
    And does anyone know if they are still selling the cup cake boxes? The round ones similar to the cake boxes? My store manager said not only were they not selling then any more, they never had, when I know that's where I bought them, I remember struggling back to the car with 5 of them!!

    Not sure the endorsement of some has-been actress would make me think some cookware is any better than it would have been without her being paid to put her name to it, to be honest, but I know what you mean.

    What with Bank Holidays & all, we went to various stores for gardening bits & pieces - and sadly went to poundland last. Teeth gritted, I stocked up on a few odds & ends I know I'll use in January & flinched at what I could have paid for several things already bought. Drat...

    I'm on the lookout for hanging basket seed disks (the ones you just stick in the basket, add soil, water for a bit and hey presto....result). I would much rather pay £1 than the £2.49 I have seen them advertised at, please let me know if you see them anywhere?

    I got some of these from B&M Bargains just recently. 89p I think they were.
