    I noted my local Poundland selling glue guns, the glue sticks can be purchased separately. I assumed they were hot (ie required batteries) but was disappointed to see that both were marked at £2 - making it a non-MSE purchase of £4. A gun with a small supply of glue priced at £1 would have been much better value. Better still is my craft glue, which has lasted for years.

    Two quick things from Union Street, Glasgow:

    A Boy, A Bear, A Balloon By Brittany Rubiano, RRP £3.99

    and Pantene Micellar Cleanse & Nourish Foam Conditioner 180ml (I liked this, got a sample of it a while back, sister doesn't, for some reason).

    £1 each.

    From Argyle Street, Glasgow:

    Manhattan Fresher Skin "Breathable, Natural Finish Foundation, Shine-Free Finish, Does not Clog Pores" SPF15, 25ml, in 30 Soft Porcelain and 33 True Ivory shades.
    PlKmI8u.jpg?1
    £1.95 at Fragrance Direct https://www.fragrancedirect.co.uk/manhattan-fresher-skin-foundation-25ml-0096149.html (more shades on there) but I think they're the German equivalent of Rimmel - all the Manhattan makeup I've picked up over the years has been decent.

    Review in German/English: http://glamzeit.de/2016/11/23/manhattan-fresher-skin-foundation-review/

    If you buy from Cosmetics Fairy (I used to, when they had Airspun Loose Powder in stock, been a while since I've had a browse!) they sell it for 99p in 34 Soft Beige http://www.cosmeticsfairy.co.uk/manhattan-fresher-skin-natural-finish-foundation-soft-beige-34.html

    There's other shades of eyeliner pencil available too. This Google Images picture seems to give some indication what's out there.

    Also saw Maybelline Liquid Eyeliner but didn't buy one, as they were in Green or Purple!

    From the Facebook and Twitter Poundland links..

    New shape, same great taste…Twin Peaks is back for good :):p In stores on 5th October.2Q==

    From the Poundland video, the Twin Peaks' packaging seems the same, the new shape looks like this (so this may explain why they disappeared again)

    I had a Google just now to check the weight (180g btw) and it seems the bars have caused quite a stir today! Some of the pics are pretty unbelievable! Which leads me to believe they may be staged.

    Someone needs to Photoshop a Polaroid Telly onto that photo :rotfl:

    I'm sure, though, as before, I will be able to pick mine up easily (as I did during the first wave of hype and some were saying they were selling out - surprising, maybe, as Glaswegians like chocolate more than salad). I do genuinely enjoy them, though.

    Edit: The Sun link above also says there's a White Chocolate version on the way, from October 12thhLKEOTo.pngApparently Fruit And Nut Twin Peaks is on the way a week later!

    They were by the door in my local poundland. Full display of them, everyone walked straight past, myself included. Those pictures are definitely staged :rotfl:
