    A cello pack with a 3-pack of Cadburys Dairy Milk with Ritz and a 3-pack of CDM with Lu. Best beofre April dates.

    A small zipped pouch with Cussons baby bath, mums bubble bath, a full sized muslin and an anti bac hand gel. 50ml bottles I think. On the baby toiletries shelf.
    A minute at the till, a lifetime on the bill.

    Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels.

    one life, live it!

    Here's a good one on HUKD today (thanks to HUKD member furblefawks), LED light bulbs: http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/led-bulbs-various-types-1-poundland-2140220

    Bayonet Candle BC22
    Bayonet Golfball BC22

    Edison Screw E14
    Edison Golf Bulb E14

    Apparently warm white, 3W and transparent. Made by Status International for Poundland. SMD LED (basically Flat LEDs) so brighter than standard, old-style ones. Non-dimmable. A+ Energy rating, average lifespan 15,000 hours. http://www.poundland.co.uk/catalogsearch/result/?q=ultrabrite

    By the way, those Coley & Gill tea lights (Poundland-brand I think) are GREAT. I tested one and it burned for 2.5 hours, later for another 2, so they definitely last. 3.5 hours burn time on the packet if I remember right. Much better, compared to a Morrisons Basics tea light pack I used, where the candles burned for a mere 15 minutes at a time (maybe a faulty batch?).

    Edit: Got 3W (equal to 20W) SES (screw) candle bulbs (think they're E14s?) from Trongate, Glasgow, half an hour ago. Lots left. Just tested them in a six-light fitting, and they're brighter than the 25W halogen candle bulbs they replaced!

    HUKD member dry says: "They produce a very similar volume of light output to a standard 8W energy saver, but in a narrower field - the beam does not spread as much." (as I'm using a multi-bulb fitting, that's probably why I don't notice this).

    Got some Nestle Fruity Lentilky 5 x 35g boxes too (chewy fruit flavoured sweets, they're similar to Tooty Frooties). http://pi.ce-tescoassets.com/assets/SK/880/0000085920880/ShotType1_328x328.jpg

    Another Edit: The candle LEDs are clear, and the round bulbs are frosted.

    More Poundland (Trongate, Glasgow) bits and pieces...used my voucher!

    Tropicana Apple & Raspberry Juice 1 litre, Fray Bentos Chicken Balti Half-Time Pie 475g. Various spectacle and sunglasses cases (got a few new pairs from the Goggles4U BOGO offer recently). Also an Ariel The Mermaid facecloth (also available are Sofia and various other Disney Princesses I can't remember). And, a Refreshers candle (they also have Love Hearts variety, the Refreshers one smells "sherberty", like the sweets! Lemon scented and 85g).

    PS: Keep forgetting to add, Poundland sells "Stroopwafels" which are yummy (made in Netherlands). For those unfamiliar with them, you heat them (5 minutes or so) like this: https://cityexile.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/stroopwafel.jpg
