So, we all know these shops exist, but who admits to shopping there?
I will be the first, I absolutely love my local poundshop, for kitchen things. They sometimes have excellent value ceramic baking ware that normally cost like £4 or £5 in normal stores.
Even humungous great jars of olives for £1 when they should b like £3.
Hmm, also they have good things for informal parties, disposable tablecloths and plates.
Wouldn’t ever buy cosmetics from there tho, they might b fake.

Re: Your local £1 shop / $1 shop / 2 RIYAL Shop...
yeahh primark is cool
Re: Your local £1 shop / $1 shop / 2 RIYAL Shop...
£ shop is SO cool.
I buy loads of stuff for school from there, mainly 'treats' to go into my 'treat box' for children who have finished their sticker charts.
Re: Your local £1 shop / $1 shop / 2 RIYAL Shop...
I buy cleaning supplies sometimes, as well as gift bags and wrapping paper from the dollar store. Also 2 foil trays for $1 sure beats paying $3+ for one at walmart.
Re: Your local £1 shop / $1 shop / 2 RIYAL Shop...
when we (me and my friends) first went to america, the discovery of such a thing as 99c stores was sold to us as a boon to humanity by our introductory uncle. for the first few months, many a time we trekked the 3-4 miles to the nearest shop, carrying back huge bottles of soda, biscuits of all sorts, and other things we probably shouldnt have been eating.
happy days.
it is also great for buying gifts when going back to pak for people you dont particularly like.
Re: Your local £1 shop / $1 shop / 2 RIYAL Shop…
Okay why should anyone be ashamed of shopping at dollar store?
I shop for some things at dollar store so i can buy other things at Henri Bendel 
Re: Your local £1 shop / $1 shop / 2 RIYAL Shop...
i think £1 shop is good, get some right bargains!
Re: Your local £1 shop / $1 shop / 2 RIYAL Shop...
yup! I shop at dollar stores all the time. Little things for the kitchen, sometimes they have these cute ceramic wall hangings of vegetables, fruits. Gift bags, stationery, anything. I love dollar stores!!
Re: Your local £1 shop / $1 shop / 2 RIYAL Shop...
My mom buys many kitchen stuff from Dollar shop...So many times, they have great stuff at such a great price that you are almost tempted to buy them regardless of you need them or not.
i luv such cheap shops but my husband is allergic to them and he doesn't even let me go into the shop...but now i would def..!!!

Re: Your local £1 shop / $1 shop / 2 RIYAL Shop...
Sometimes I go to different dollar stores and they have more and different variety.
Malls and expensive places dollar store have more better things.
