The end of civilisation is upon us if pound shops are having price wars. :disappointed:

Is there any evidence of this strategy (which the pound shops have been employing for years) actually working? (By "working" I mean driving the competition back out, as I can't see any other benefit as inevitably the competitor just drops their price to a similar level and both stores lose out).

Also "Dealz" but poundland store design in Torremolinos Spain......prices are 1.50 euro each

Poundland's business in Ireland is called Dealz because they couldn't get Euroland and they stuff costs more than 1€ anyway.

They've been charging 90p since the large poundworld opened in the same shopping area...

BIG DEAL

Same in wood Green.

another store closing?

Hot

Great find OP Im very 10p-ted.

They have done the same at Worthing in West Sussex if it helps anyone.

epic. just got a massive bag of flash etc, named products, all at 90 p. about 2 percent of items are priced higher

nice spot op, heat

They have had things priced at 90p for the last 2 months! :wink:

pound land. but how many pounds? I think its as simple as that.

Or keep their name which is already known by customers and suppliers, whilst selling I'd say 99.5% of their products at £1 (or 3 for £1 etc) and using their buying power (buying high amounts of more expensive stock brining the cost of buying down) selling several select products at a higher cost to drive sales as a business. Just my opinion but I'd say keep the name.

Are they changing their name to ninetypenceland?
