“Recently went in and they were selling some novelty pens which were ideal for my classroom prize box. I told the lady at the counter, this is what I was buying them for. Without me asking, she spent a fair bit of time going through all the pens to find any more discounted ones that I could purchase for my class. Extremely helpful! Wonderful staff. A very happy class!”

“This place is practically heaven, I swear I can see angels when I pass by. I don't live in the UK, but I always return just to visit this amazing supermarket. You can find a wide variety of items (food, hygiene, self-care, and more) at incredibly low prices. It's perfect for young people on a tight budget.
In summary, if you ever visit the UK, Poundland is a must-stop. I wish there were a similar supermarket in my country.”
“Not the biggest of home bargains, which means it doesn't stock the biggest selection of things I've seen before, but it uses its space well and all the shelves are well-filled.The staff are friendly, there are always enough around so if you need help, you will be able to easily find someone. The store is typically clean and tidy.There can occasionally be long queues at the checkouts as there's never normally more than 2 checkouts open.”
“Evening everything I didn't even know I needed. Good prices and variety of stock. The only downside that has always been a problem is how long it takes to get through the checkout, it always seems short staffed. Also it's one of those shops you can't get out of without going through the tills....”
“Picked up a couple of decent priced items. Unfortunately I got there as it was closing so I had to rush about. Will return at a later date as the store looked like it had lots to offer”

“Central York. An interesting lunch menu of hot dishes, open sandwiches or paninis with various toppings / fillings. Each has side salad and then a choice of three from six interesting other salads. Middle Eastern or North African flavours. The cafe is looking rather tired but the staff are lovely and we really enjoyed our lunch.”
