Poundland

Great prices (obviously) although I really dislike the layout it looks as if it was put together over night and never seems to be clean so I usually just avoid it. Staff always look miserable and management don’t seem to not give a toss about customer service.
Although this seems to be a company thing, one of those places that no matter how much you clean it, it will always look messy.

This is located in a seperate undercover shopping mall to the main one but you should find it easy enough. The poundshop is easy to access but gets very busy so if you have a buggy it can get quite annoying trying to get passed.
The shop itself sells a wide variety of stock as you enter you will see various batteries, being scottish they stock ‘wee’ bru (small bottles of irn bru), tea bags. The aisle as you immediately go in has various hair products, baby items including bibs, food and wipes. They also stock toys, books, dvd, other food stuff, diy and arts and crafts material for children.
The stock does change ie in the summer they had camping and gardening items and now they have Christmas items but they always stock toys etc. etc.
Your always best to check prices though for things such as toothpaste as sometimes it is cheaper if it is on offer at a supermarket but the majority of the time it is a good place to get that sought after bargain.
It gets very busy at the tills and so if going with a buggy you would be best if possible to go during the week even then it is busy or have someone else with you to stand outside. All in all a good shop.

Love this large shop where not only can youpick up rubbish you can also get some wee bargains. This is a very spacious shop and everything is laid out well. A great selection of childrens books are available as are dvds and stationery. A great shop to take your little ones to spend their pocket money. It now takes a switch card which is ideal as i always go in with the intention of buying a few things and end up spending a fortune. At the moment there are some lovely christmas decorations and cards available

With prices that are extremely difficult to beat, Poundland offers some of the very best value for money. There are many good features about this store with a wide variety of clothes to suit the whole family. However, there are times the quality is just what you pay for and some garments don’t last long. The layout is very much crammed together with not much space between rails. Staff are nice enough but Customer Services are not always staffed meaning a long wait at times in the queue depending on how busy the shop is. Also with the fast changing rate of fashion it is not always possible to buy the same thing from month to month, for instance the same type of blouse for work. However, for cheap and cheerful outfits that don’t need to worn continually this is definitely the right place to shop.
