And it wasn’t even difficult...

Restocking the cleaning cupboard
Also restocking shampoos and conditioner and shower gel and toothpaste
Some treats for the kids
A few party bag fillers for my son’s bday party
Annuals for the kids’ christmas stockings (Paw Patrol and Spider-Man. Bargain!)
Christmas wrapping paper and sellotape
Stocking fillers - unicorn pen and pj mask blind bag
Crisps
Some kid art materials

Voila. £50. Gulp. Still, I love Poundland.

Same OP. Happens in b&m, home bargains, pound stretcher
Always find stuff I just need

I can’t go into out B&M at the moment. Soooo tempting.

In fact I chose Poundland thinking it would be less tempting that B&M!

My local Poundland sells clothes now too- I can always find something we ‘need’

Gosh
I spent £7 in there the other day and thought I’d done well

£20 for me yesterday, mainly on cheesy Xmas DVDs and toiletries. Love that shop!

I bloody love Poundland. B&M and Home Bargains are my fav as well. I spent about £40 in B&M yesterday lol I got scented candles, wooden personalised storage boxes/organisers and some new mugs Grin

I tend to buy coffee sachet for a friend and nothing else.

I managed to spend over 150 quid in B&M last Christmas so I've banned myself from going this year all I buy is plastic tat!

I do exactly the same so now I only go in there about once a month.

For me it's toiletries,food bags,Dog treats,Bird food,crisps and biscuit bars and a little treat for the DC and now it's getting nearer Christmas I picked up a couple of lovely little gift boxes and some of they're crackers for the DC to take to school.
