Lakeland products

The three items which I think are better from Lakeland than anywhere else are 1)Foil - much thicker and less fragile than any other I've ever tried;
2)Shower Clean - another one that beats rivals into a cocked hat!
3)Cling film - see foil:D
Those are the "must-haves" I put on every order - there are plenty of other "would-likes" as well, lol!

I've only bought one thing from lakeland so far, the egg timer thing that changes colour when the eggs are cooked and its FAB!

Have always felt embarassed about the fact that despite being able to cook a 3 course meal i am hopeless at making chucky eggs for DD, they're either not cooked or hard boiled, never the right consistency for dipping soldiers. So this is a godsend for me, we all had chucky eggs for breakfast last week and they were perfect

I love their magic green plastic bags - I think they call them Stayfresh bags. You put your fresh veg or fruit in them and they keep it fresh for aaaaages, brilliant if you only shop once a week. They come in packs of 20 (or 25?) and in 3 different sizes, I usually get the medium ones for £4.29.

When I first got them, I didn't believe they would work, so I did a test with some broccoli and it kept fresh for 3 weeks!! Broccoli usually starts going yellow as soon as I'm out of the shop!

And you can wash and re-use them a few times!

But will it still be as good as new 12 years later with no rust etc. I've bought mine when DD a baby and she's 12 now. Still very sharp and in perfect condition.

I've bought the apple corer from there as well as the mango slicer. Makes life that bit easier as I could never slice a mango nicely before. Just need to do an order now so that I can get my mum a mango slicer for Xmas.
Also, their fudge is to die for - it only has a best before date of about 8 weeks - it will not last that long!!!

I once bought a teapot from Lakeland. It was too small - entirely my fault. I rang them up and they said not to return it but to give it to a charity shop. They then sent out the larger size for the difference in price. That's customer service!

If you can get the stuff elsewhere then it's often cheaper. Sometimes you can't, though.
