Poundstretcher

A surprisingly well-​stocked shop, where I managed to find a number of stocking fillers at good prices, including craft kits, sweets, some nice glasses and toiletries, plus some pretty bows for the wrapping. A new kitchen bin was probably a third of the price it might have been elsewhere.
On a previous visit, I had stocked up on some stylish wicker storage baskets, which were ridiculously cheap, and would not have been out of place in a much more expensive store.
This is definitely the kind of place where you buy it when you see it, as there is no telling what might be in stock when you return.
The checkout staff were pleasant, if a little distracted by what was going on in the other queues. I did get some help with my storage baskets, although I had to ask.
There is street parking right outside the store, although it is normally pretty busy, but it does mean that you can get picked up with all your bulky purchases.

This shop is clean and well lit and has recently been changed round, they have agood range of items although I would say a lot of it is at the lower end of the quality scale, but ideal as long as your not looking for items that will last. The clothes section in this store is pretty limited but occasionally you may pick up a bargain for the kids. The toy section is cheap, cheerful and well stocked and ideal if you just want to pick up something small and inexpensive as a treat for the kids. Definately not wheelchair friendly as the store is a little too cramped and I would imagine it would be hard getting through in parts. The staff are on the whole are ok but are not very understanding when they have a customer in who is a little bit different, as I stood in the queue as the young girl at the till was rolling her eyes at an elderly lady who was talking away while she was being served.
