Poundland have reported annual sales in UK and Ireland up 11.8% to £1.1 bn

(I've emailed the PR office to ask what that equates to in volume of units)

I still wonder what their plan is if/when we get a sustained period of inflation.

Surely a lot of the items are multibuys?

So you'll just get 2 packets of biscuits for your £1 instead of 3.

They want to takeover the 99p store chain and incredibly the monopolies
people think may be against the public interest.

I should think their profits are good.

All their staff have to work for free to get their JSA.

Or they could just maintain their prices.

McVitie's Chocolate Digestives:
Poundland - £1 (300g)
Iceland - £1 (400g)

Tunnock's Tea Cakes (six):
Poundland - £1
Tesco, Asda - 81p

Yep,
  Many of the items on sale in our local Poundland and 99p shop are available for less in Wilkinsons in the same street.

I have to drive 10 miles to get to my local Poundland and pay £2 to park my car, it's easier to buy all my cr@p off ebay.

Going back to around 2002, my missus bought a computer game from a pound shop. And then she went back and bought several more.

She sold them all on ebay for good profit. I remember one selling for £52 Shocked but most went for £25 - £35
