Anyone watching? Even Caroline Aherne sounds bored commentating. Hmm

I'm watching, I thought it would be more interesting.

Sparklingbrook · 07/11/2012 20:32

I haven't learnt anything but it's strangely compelling Brandy. Grin The people of Chester not happy. Shock

I'm watching. I'm a 99p Store convert though.

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 07/11/2012 20:34

I'm glued. But then we have four pound shops in my town. One even just stocks bog roll.

InNeedOfBrandy · 07/11/2012 20:34

No that woman saying up a side street somewhere LOL

I'm slightly compelled to go shopping and waste a tenner for ten things.

KenDoddsDadsDog · 07/11/2012 20:35

It's quite boring. I'm a total pound land convert

BooyhooRemembering · 07/11/2012 20:35

i'm nipping in and out of it. just saw the comments from rich people not being happy about the poundshops being in their towns.

We had a Poundland open recently. It is full of tatt! Grin Even the staff are rubbish, obviously don't spend much on training.

Sparklingbrook · 07/11/2012 20:36

Caroline Aherne does sound really bored, and slightly disinterested.

OP posts:
Sparklingbrook · 07/11/2012 20:59

So what have we learnt?

OP posts:
InNeedOfBrandy · 07/11/2012 21:02

Um it comes from china and is not quite full sized, not anything we didn't know...

scurryfunge · 07/11/2012 21:02

Not much! I know that cleaning cloths are the same the world over. Buying in the 99p store allows me to buy my main shop for food at Waitrose or the likes.

LadyMaryCreepyCrawley · 07/11/2012 21:03

What on Earth was the point of that? Confused I want some of my licence fee refunded! Angry

Gumby · 07/11/2012 21:04

Why is Caroline aherne commentating on this crap?

She used to be a comedy genius

Bring back mrsmerton Grin

Pancakeflipper · 07/11/2012 21:07

I have never seen a 99p shop. In fact I have only seen a Poundland (yummy for sweets for the office now there's no Woolies).

noisytoys · 07/11/2012 21:11

I can't get the pushchair in our 99p shop if they run out of space on the shelves they just pile things on the floor so there's no space to move

notcitrus · 07/11/2012 21:28

Pound wars? We have 99p wars round here!
(99p Stores vs SAM 99p - the 98p Shop and 97p Store went out of business. Or renamed. Hard to tell.)

Interesting going round and seeing what is same/more than in mainstream stores, and what is a real bargain that day.
