Price points

Asda are now selling beauty & personal hygiene products in small sizes - £1 each, or 4 for £3. National brands.

Pound stores from this side of St George’s Channel are invading the Irish Republic. Poundland is already there & is now to be followed by 99p Stores.

Very confusingly, the price at which goods will be sold will be €1.50, not the euro equivalent of 99p which is currently closer to €1.10.

What is more the company will trade as €0.50 over there, according to a report in The Times.

Do you think someone is taking the Michael?
