Have to admit, I prefer the branch at Coulby Newham, but maybe that's just because I'm more familiar with it. They sell all kinds of bargains, from household items and kitchenware, to toys and games. They also sell bedding, and I've been lucky and bought children's character duvet sets here for about £9.99 when they were over £15 everywhere else! They also stock food items - mostly tinned food, or coffee or biscuits, the kind of thing that doesn't really go off. You will generally find these food items are a little closer to their sell by dates than you would get in the big supermarkets, but they are nevertheless still within the dates, so ok to use, and much cheaper.

This is yet another of those cheap shops that have sprung up in Stockton town centre in recent…read moreyears. It's located in the Castlegate Centre, just next to Home Bargains, and sort of opposite Holland and Barratt. This shop sells all kinds of things, from toys and games to household items, hair accessories, stationery items, pet toys, tinned food etc. As the name suggests, everything costs £1. In some cases that's brilliant and you can get some real bargains at least you can if you keep an eye on prices elsewhere! I've been lucky here and bought things like a pack of about 10 badminton shuttlecocks for £1, or a pack of really pretty jewelled hair clips, six small or two large for £1. Don't be fooled, though. Sometimes they offer things at their standard cost of £1, and you get carried away thinking it's a bargain - but in fact you could probably buy it for 70p in a supermarket! A great place to grab a bargain as long as you keep your wits about you!

I find this Poundstretcher store is worth a visit. It may…read morenot look very inspiring from the outside but there's still the same good value inside.

LAst time I was in this one I got loads of greatly discounted crisps and other snacks and items suitable for kids packed lunches. They also sell a nice range of bedding, household items and kitchenalia which I haven't seen in other Poundstretchers. The store is a little dated looking - it hasn't changed much in years, I always think it looks grubby from the outside, but this does not put me off as I am an avid bargain hunter so do not really care about these cosmetics details as there are plenty of bargains to be found at Poundstretchers :D

The make up is especially good and you can often find some bargains for a pound that if you to Boots are more like £7/£8! The cafe is quite nice but expensive and you can better elsewhere! There are public toilets in here but you have to persuade a member of staff to let you in them as they've just put a code on them due to the abuse of them!

The layout is such that you can easily access all areas without feeling cramped. You can never be guarenteed what will be in stock but you can be guarenteed good prices . Often there are well known makes and these items are usually sold at better retail prices than in other shops.Staff are usually very friendly and helpful however they are not always easy to find when I tend to go in the shop during weekend opening hours and it tends to be busy with bargain hunters. Paid arking is available in Captain Cooks square in the form of a multi storey car park.

They seem to change their stock fairly often, so if you see something you want, buy it then! Usually if you go back they've run out.
