It’s Time To Check Out Poundland, People

Stamp out your inner snob and swap posh shops for Poundland. You'll be amazed at what you can get. Plus, don't know if you know, but it's all £1 each.

Internally hating that housemate who's shit at doing the washing up? Have a last ditch attempt at convincing them before declaring all-out war with this sass-pot washing up brush. It'll be really fun to use at first, even if the novelty wears off pretty quickly.

There’s a reason everyone goes wild for mason jars on Pinterest. They look a darn sight better than anything else you’ve got in your kitchen. At £1 each (are you starting to get how this works?) you can afford enough to have a whole larder full of different grains in different mason jars. SO middle class.

Subject to mould? Of course you are. Because you live in a rubbish house and rubbish houses have mould. Make sure your clothes don’t fall prey to damp damage with this nifty little guy that hangs between your clothes to ward off moisture.

Know what takes your BBQ from eating meat in scrubland to a real-life garden party? Candlelit lanterns that’s what. Buy a couple and hang them round your outside bit, no matter how small it is. Queen Liz’s garden party ain’t got nothing on you.

OBVIOUSLY if you make a salad in the morning for lunch you don’t want to put your dressing on it right away lest the tomatoes liquefy themselves and the lettuce wilts by lunchtime. This snazzy Tupperware has it’s own special compartment for the dressing so you can add it later on. Clever no?

Is under your bed full of all those clothes you just can't quite bear to get rid of? Give it up sister, white flared jeans aren't making a comeback any time soon. If you really can't bring yourself to take them down to the clothes bank, this handy vacuum pack bag means you can at least make sure they take up as little space as possible.

Ever tried to do a spot of DIY only find you’re lacking vital stuff like er hammer, nails and screws and stuff? Yeah. Slightly problematic that. This hook works without any of that, simply by popping it over the top of a door. One from the five second school of home improvement there for a measly £1.

Stop your laptop from doing that whizzy thing where it sounds like a jet plane engine and breaking with this laptop cooler thing.

You know those bits that are always floating around in your cup of tea? Yeah, those are limescale bits that are nesting in your kettle because you've never cleaned it. This cleaner descales the insides of your kettle (with a great deal of fun fizzing) so you can go back to making clean tea again.

In denial about how gross your keyboard is? Turn your laptop upside down and shake it, not too hard mind, and check out the minging crumbs and fuzz that comes out. Must stop eating Monster Munch while hunched over Netflix. This laptop vacuum cleaner – as well as being the funnest thing ever – is good for cleaning up the evidence of your midnight snack before your keys start to stick. c Photographs by Anna Jay
