They've obviously had some complaints, so have just taken it down, but here's a screen shot

It was only on Twitter, no where else. I don't see the problem, children shouldn't be on that platform there's an age limit. I thought it was quite funny!

I am not a fan of Poundland either. There's worse things to be getting frothy about at the moment

Well fuck, the elf one made me laugh Grin

I remembered the tea bag one from last year too. Twinings - whose product was used without their permission - were very unhappy about that one too. Can;t imagine Cadbury's being delighted about this one.

It's tacky, designed to shock and fits perfectly with the "cheap and nasty" Poundland image. They are the chain which pretty much embodies the concept of plastic tat.

I think it’s grim!

@rosesandcashmere it was on fb too

I wonder if Poundland would get in trouble with Cadbury now for bringing their brand into disrepute or some such...

I don’t get it

I think we're invited to imagine her having these chocolate finger things up her vag so yes it's grim.
