A really great place to find bargains of all kinds. You'll find clothes for all the family and…read morefootwear too, including a 'back to school' range at the moment. There are so many things for the home, from vacuum cleaners to china, bathroom accessories, kitchen ware and gardening things. There are sunglasses, toys, artificial flowers, fragrance, inexpensive jewellery, scarves, confectionery, pet food and pet toys, and much more. You'll also find DVD box sets for £9.99 this month I imagine there are usually discounts on them. I bought a lovely cushion for a dining chair in here today which practically matches my kitchen curtains! The cushions were reduced to £6 which is a good price compared to the ones I've seen in other stores recently.

You may very well think if you've been in one Pound shop you've been in them all but if you think…read morethis then you are wrooooong my dear fellow. Some are of the chain variety (think that big ol'green beast Poundland) & others are of the 'Is this REALLY a Pound shop...I saw something for £5 over there?..' and then some, like Pound Shop (great name btw; simple yet to the point) are just a good old fashioned £1 shop where everything is actually just £1. This one nestles within the heaving bosom of Sauchiehall Street and I'm sure it's been a few different things before it found fame as the Pound Shop. It is of GOOD SIZE and is darn well stocked. As you enter they have delightful 'Are you SURE they're not real?!' faux flowers (what do you expect for a quid) and then onwards, depper & darker into the shop more household goodies arise. Toys of questionable origin (and safety) nuzzle against pet items (You want a toy gun for your child or a lead?) which then take place against food/cookery ware. Mmm...now I may mock (slightly) but only because I actually really like the gear in here. It's one of those shops you definitely enter looking for 1 single item and end up with your arms laden with plastic nonsense & kitchen craziness. Past visits we picked up some tres chic & funky 70's inspired glass mugs, some cup & spoon cooking measures, a creepy looking bearded Santa, colouring books, pens, gift tags & all matter of other lovely shiz. Especially at Christmas time this place is brilliant if, like me, you are a fan of the more 'Retro Christmas' or you just simply like cheap stuff. Also if you have any family of friends 'darn saaarrrf' or elsewhere that is not Scotland then this place has a rather jaunty line of Scottish themed tat, I mean souvenirs. A-hoy there lots of tartan & little cuddly Scottie dawgs! If you are looking for something in particular then give this place a whirl as you never know, they might have it in stock here and okay, the quality might not be AS good as somewhere else but you know it's only going to cost you one shiny gold nugget.

Apparently this is one of only a hand full of such stores in Scotland, and hence I thought it worth…read moreof a review, especially seeing as its located in the centre of Penicuik, a small town south of Edinburgh whose's shopping scene, quite frankly, has seen better days. Needless to say, the large blue exterior, with clear windows offering gazes into the wonders within, intrigued me. As I entered, I was surprised to see the extent of goods available in this shop. It certainly can be considered a miniature department store. Clothes, groceries, clothes, toys, DVDs, car accessories, camping accessories, DIY, stationary..... the list is seemingly endless. I first explored the DVD section and was amazed to see many familiar, popular titles included in a two for a fiver deal. I ended up purchasing two reasonably priced reporters notepads at two for £1.50. The reason I have put this under "reasonably priced" is that the paper quality isn't that fantastic, and I observed that this was probably the case which a lot of the stock available. However, is that not expected from such a discount store? The stock was very well presented and the staff offered a friendly mannerism. Overall, four stars due to the fact that a lot of the products available aren't of great quality which may leave some disappointed.

Glasgow is littered with places like Rutherglen's the Bargain Store. You know the kind, jack of all…read moretrades, master of none. Sure, you can get a bargain in here but generally for "bargain" you should read cheap. Stocking everything and anything, the Bargain Store is the place you buy your kid a Mickey Mouse toy to appease them for five minutes, before they're left horrified as Mickey's eyes and legs fall off. In saying that, you can always uncover something handy in here, be it Christmas lights, bluetack or a disco ball. It's not good quality stuff, but by rule of thumb, if you can't find it anywhere else, chances are it'll be hidden away in a bargain store.
