OK, avid Poundland shoppers, as your lovely friendly Poundland employee (well sometimes, depending if you try and argue with me about where the bloomin queue is!), I have an announcement:

Smoking stuff (incl filters, tips, lighters etc.), knives, forks, glue, anything with a blade in it, and those big long solar lights (not the ones in the boxes, the ones in the stand that look like big cylinders), are now 21 and over to buy (well at least in our region- Scotland - they are).

Changes came into effect today, and no one under the age of 18 (I think), can sell those items either.

Small packs of art and craft things for children - pipecleaners, felt letters, beads etc at 3 for £1.

Word to the wise, though, the string to make bracelets/necklaces/etc. in the 3 for £1 aren't worth it. I made two bracelets with them, broke within a day.

Bought two Jacqueline Wilson hardback novels in there today. The Diamond Girls and Love Lessons. This was in the Metrocentre store - they were on the top shelf in the books bit, right at the back.

I can't be doing with Ms Wilson's books myself - I think she's depressing, but youngest daughter is very impressed with me for getting them.

Poundland sell Matey and Mer Matey bubble bath. They're normally £1.59 in Tescos. Also seen some 1980's style soft !!!!!! DVDs!

Why are these age restricted? can you do something naughty with them?

Oh someone beat me to it, was just about to post about the Jaqueline Wilson books, just wanted to add they are the hard back version too!

I also picked up a set of four babies ladybird hard board books called Baby's First Farm Animals.

Colgate toothbrushes were BOGOF in Bromley.

I think it's because they have sharp edges. Though I don't think you could do much harm with one tbh.
