Poundland Bargain Thread -

LouLou

Strathkelvin Retail Park, Bishopbriggs (Sunday afternoon):

Bic 3 Hybrid 1 Handle + 6 Cartridges, £2
(Think Bic cartridge razors are a reasonably new development, they're better-known for their disposables.
Here's a discussion of Bic cartridge varieties on Badger And Blade - surprisingly positive! They seem to prefer the Flex version).
Amazon reviews look good too (£3.99 from there), here

£3.49 from Savers
£3.79 from B&M

Clever Tiles Mosaic Border Tile Stickers, £1

Home Bargains across the road had lots of empty shelves, was a bit surprising how bare it was!

Only been making very quick Poundland visits recently to look for provisions (finally tracked down some pasta today from a local Tesco, woohoo!).

Anyway, I said previously I couldn't find the Black Dusk 100ml EDP (Black Opium dupe) anywhere - Union Street, Glasgow has it, saw it this afternoon.

Glaswegians seem to be going gaga for baked beans (also thin on the ground) but I managed to get some Heinz Spaghetti 400g tins for 75p each - bought a few.

Stay well and stay safe

Nine 2-finger kitkats for £1 is a good deal.  Also at Sainsburys

I had a bundle of pictures from Argyle Street from Wednesday afternoon (was out picking up an order from Superdrug on the way) but think it may be a little bad taste to add pictures when most people aren't venturing outside.

But if you're able to visit, this store has lots of Carex hand wash. The Aldi about half a mile away has - loo roll! again.

Why is Poundland not shut down?! Is this a Scotland thing?

Poundland sell food, medicine and cleaning supplies which is why they are still allowed to trade

The local Poundland (S Yorks) was almost empty of shoppers yesterday -- suspect like here a lot of people assume they aren't open.
Nine-pack kitkats all gone.  Next best is 18 for £2 but sadly no orange variety  
Some TP available - either six skinny rolls of useless, or twin pack of Andrex.
A few markdown kitchen items as well at 50p - got a microwave mini cooking pot thing.

That is good value. I use my microwave saucepan with lid all the time for heating milk for lattes, cleaning it is no bother compared to a steamer or conventional saucepan.

Not that I see any sense in rushing out for it, it's certainly not worth risking viral spread for.

Yes they're really handy for reheating things like canned food, soup and whatnot
