    Picked up today in my local Poundworld, Taylors of Harrogate Brazil Yellow Bourbon Decaffeinated Coffee Pods for Nespresso Machines. Boxes of 10, 8 strength they are in a light mint green box, £1 each. It's nice coffee as I normally buy this from Sainsbury's (currently £2.50 in there) and ASDA.

    Thanks for this, I have a Nespresso machine and a Poundworld, will investigate!
    I trialled some of the Taylor's capsules for review, but not the Brazil ones. The only caution I would make is that the Kenyan capsules jammed more than once, and it wasn't unknown with the Colombian either, the delivery of the drink wasn't the greatest. Iirc, the Brazilian capsules were in a yellow box at the time, so perhaps they have been improved and relaunched.

  • 1.7 Kg of Wild Birdseed in my poundland. Always get the seed from there as it a lot cheaper than anywhere else.

    Don't bother with wild bird peanuts as that is a rip off in Poundland, where you can only get 0.4kg. I go to Wilko, where you can get 1kg for £2 and I use my LTS vouchers (which don't cost me a penny as I am on the Royal Mail TNS survey). Popped over to both shops during my work lunch break to get seeds & peanuts.

    My local tits just luv the peanuts.



    I buy all my bird feed online - much cheaper than Wilko, where I used to think I was getting a bargain.

    I'm not often in the vicinity of a Poundworld but today I was happy to get some of these, just my shade (when it's not greying :o).

    RRP £6.69...allegedly ;)
    I meant to report back on this. Unusually, it's an oil on water concoction that needs to be mixed with the cream. I gave it a good shake before doing so, but it separates fast so splitting it into 6-8 servings for root touch ups hasn't worked out well for me. I won't be buying it again.

    12" hanging baskets with removable moulded Coco liner, ideal just for the latter part.

    Cheapest I've seen that size liner is £2 in Wilko.

    From Poundworld, Argyle Street, Glasgow earlier.

    As I said on the Poundland thread, I don't have a dog so I assume these are usually in store?

    Dr J's Just 4 Dogs Dog Gone Fleas Flea Repellent Shampoo For Puppies & Dogs 500ml and Messy Mutts Doggy Fresh Dry Shampoo (Spray) 150ml.

    Not a branded item but my Poundworld had some microwave cookware similar to Sistema, but a fraction of the price. Not the same quality it has to be said, but at a fifth of the price...

    Similar bowl on Am@zon
