Seems a great price as its over £5 in many places.
Only draw back is that it's limited to one per order

Very sticky in hot weather. 99P shop used to stock Gillette aftershave and edt made abroad for 99p but since Warren Buffet bought 99p shop chain and merged with Poundland never see any of them again.

You can still get the blue one in some pharmacies for 99p.

Buffet purchased 99p store?!
PS: Poundland acquired 99p store - not a merger. All 99p stores have been rebranded Poundland.

Got 5 in my basket, but delivery is £3 so £8 for 5, still a good deal.

This is Poundshop.com not Poundland:stuck_out_tongue: Used to be owned partly by the Poundworld owners, but not any more, as far as I know. You can get this instore in Poundworld - I buy this regularly for boyf (they usually disappear from my store quickly) as it has SPF15.
Also, with online Deals you have to mention Postage in your Deal header, which is
Order Up To £29 – Standard Delivery is £3, Next Working Day Delivery £5
Order £30 or More – Standard FREE DELIVERY, Next Working Day Just £3!
(Next working day delivery is only available for orders placed before 3pm.)
I realise it's out of stock now, but just sayin'.

Who owns Poundland ? American Billionaire Warren Buffet. So whether he buys 99p stores directly or using Poundland makes no difference. As long as owns Poundland, he owns the former 99p stores as well, though lot of them have been shut down as they were at same locations as Poundland stores.

Investing is not your strong point is it? I think you should go re-verify wow (who owns who):
Poundland ownership:
- Fidelity Investments (11% )
- Kensico Capital (5%)
- FIL investments (5%)
- AXA (5%)
- Credit Suisee Securities (4%)
- Other Minor Shareholders (70%)
So, as you see, the vast majority of Poundland is in the hands of minority investors with the remainder distributed across 5 investments firms. Where you get this "buffet" interest is a mystery!

Yes seems like Warburg Pincus has sold it after making a profit.
