Argyle Street, Glasgow:
Carex Moisture Derma Care Eco Refill 500ml, £1
(Not far away from this display is the Palmolive Liquid Soap Refill cartons, which I think are the same amount - should've taken a picture but it's in Poundland so often - mind you, it hasn't been recently!)
Skin Treats Avocado Nourishing Sheet Mask, £1 (can see this on B&M and Amazon as well)
Next to the Berndes Gratin Dishes I took a picture of the other week (can see the volume on the label this time, these are 20cm/0.4L/7.8") are mini (ceramic) Casserole Dishes in Grey, White and Powder Blue (states they are ovenproof, etc), £1
These are also Poundland-brand, I suspect but Mini Dishes in Blue, Yellow and Grey (next to the Berndes Gratin Dishes for scale), £1
Plastic Juicer And Container, £1
These aren't that big, but pretty, around 10" iirc, Mini Mirrors in Black or Gold, £1
Lots of kitchen randomness I took for my sister via Facebook Messenger - big clicky:Lovely Baking Stuff Collapsible Funnel 2 Pack (Grey or Pink), made from silicone, £1
Glass Vases, £1
That Ronseal display again (previously posted here) but there are Tile Paints (Pink Fusion High Gloss) there now, assume £3 and Tile Paint (larger tin, in Ivory Satin) and One Coat Damp Seal, £5Big clickys here

Edit 7th May: Digging in the bottom of last night's bag, just realised I bought a £1 Caulking Gun as well. Useful if you're looking for one, but they come and go from Poundland anyway.

My Poundland had the Carex refills but they were either £1.50 or £2.00.A minute at the till, a lifetime on the bill.
Nothing tastes as good as being slim feels.

I'll edit if I see anything different next time I visit (and delete this post).Happens in Poundland sometimes (quite rarely now) - I've even purchased items labelled as £2 elsewhere that scan at £1 at another local store, sometimes no rhyme or reason to it!

I dropped by today and was surprised how orderly entry was maintained - all social distancing rules were soundly ignored by certain customers once inside though.
My finds included a tube of hand cream that was an obvious attempt to emulate L'Occitane. I picked up a rose scented version - just 60ml and the container was in fact plastic. Loads of gardening stuff, including an outside thermometer which might have its uses.I didn't see the collapsible funnels (pity, because I would have bought one) but I did note the collapsible silicone colanders which could be handy. My star find was a four pack of reusable metal straws with its own pipe cleaner - much pricier when found in the Aldi middle aisle.
Eta: I really like the handcream. I can't pretend its good value for money, but it is a nice and thick product; along with the scent it means that it can be used sparingly. My feet feel a bit more loved now, anyway

@Rosa_Damascena what area did you find the metal straws in - I could do with some of these but don't want to pay crazy pricesJanuary NSD8/101

They were on a plastic tag strip, near the disposable cutlery / crockery and straws. The packaging looks very much like this (retailing at sports Direct for £2) and I'm certain they are the same product with different branding on the pack.bloomfelt said:@Rosa_Damascena what area did you find the metal straws in - I could do with some of these but don't want to pay crazy prices

Argyle Street, Glasgow:
Hand Sanitiser Gel 70% Alcohol 50ml, £1
Another mooi item - mooi Hand Mask Shea Butter, £1
(Also Nivea Soft tubs above these, which I didn't notice till I got home and looked at my photos, can't see the mls)
Insulated Lunch Bag (different patterns) - I think this is £1, no other labels
Edit: Saw the Carex refills on display again, definitely no shelf label there.

Speaking of Mooi - I saw the foot mask but wasn't sure it was the powerful product that stripped skin off the feet that people were raving about last year. Is it? For £1 I want to see results.

That was the Derma V10 one. It definitely worked for me, it was hard to resist peeling the loose skin off thoughRosa_Damascena said:Speaking of Mooi - I saw the foot mask but wasn't sure it was the powerful product that stripped skin off the feet that people were raving about last year.
