What has been your best buy from Poundland?
I have two best buys.
The first best buy - reading glasses.
Since I had my cataracts done and the subsequent YAG laser treatment, my annual spend on spectacles has fallen from £400 + per year (vario lenses) to less than £1 per year for a pair of 1.25 reading glasses from Poundland.
Obviously you need to make sure that the pair you buy will do the job (don't just buy on the the label strength - check that you can actually see and feel comfortable with them).
If your eyes require different strengths, test out how each feels with the strength required, buy one pair of each strength, then remove the dodgy lens from each pair and use the good ones to make a working pair - for the grand sum of £2. Unless your vision is going to alter drastically, they should last for quite a while.
My second best buy - a tennis racquet fly zapper. Often used, always effective. If the perisher won't fly out, then he won't be flying any more.
They are probably no longer available, as they must cost more than £1 to make. But I bought a few in the past and they will see me for a good while yet.
