the only thing I buy from the £ shops is scented candles, 3 for a £1, big one as well. :-)

I like batteries, 16 AAs or 50 odd button cells for a quid.
Amazing how many of them work.
And a most excellent 5M protek tape measure :-)

£2 well spent
Got a few rolls of self adhesive joint tape =A31 a roll. beats paying near five quid a roll from Wickes.
How far will it throw the dog?

Just its balls!!
Dave, having a flashback to a Jasper Carrot joke.
In my local 'pound shop' everything's 99p.
I wonder what would happen to all the pound shops if we went Euro.

And you dont have to put other peoples names in the OP's post. :-) mine lower case by the way.
In Nice they are 1 Euro 80, in Cannes they are 2 Euro shops.
Names are nouns. Nouns are capitalised.
In German. Not so much in English.

Is this uk.d-i-y or uk.d-i-y.pedantics ?
ITYM names are proper nouns, and proper nouns are capitalised.
What about eBay and ntl: and other names that make a point of not having an upper-case first letter?
