Poundland is a strange phenomenon and I could write for ages about it how it personifies the UK consumer's obsession with getting something for nothing - even if they don't actually want that something. However, my point here is with the tagline "Yes! Everything's £1"
This can, of course be read in two ways depending on your emphasis. Firstly there's the reasonable interpretation of "Yes! That's right, it's amazing isn't it, but everything really is only £1, come in and buy some shite with the dregs of change from your giro and/or state pension."
The alternative, however, is the plantive sobbing cry of a Poundland employee faced with yet another retarded pleb waving a plastic ashtray or four pack of almost out-of-date Crunchies in their weeping face "Yes! That costs £1. Everything's £1. Everything. I cannot stress enough how much you do not need to ask me about the price of individual items. Everything's a fucking pound you drooling mongoloid.'
And what's with the laurel leaf emblem? Didn't Caesar or at the very least Fred Perry pretty much have that one sewn up?
