"Life is too short to not have a bin liner that fits right". For someone who just recently bought a weird size trash can, that really hit home. She is so funny! I love her personality.
"It's just wrecking my life to be honest " Might be the funniest thing I've heard her say!
@@nywvblue She is full of gems, that’s for sure.
I currently have the same problem. Really have to stretch the medium bag to fit the kitchen bin 😊😊
I also picked up on Hannah’s funny little quip and got a chuckle out of it. She should really patent these or accumulate them for a small book or funny pamphlet. She is so clever and intelligent. Couldn’t stop smiling at how she cavalierly dismissed her concern over the lip glaze not having a seal. “Let’s see if I die or I’ll be okay. Shush Love I’m going I’m going 😅.”
Nice picks in the pound shop..
Can't go wrong with a Poundland shop once in a while easily spending £20 or £30 on a basket
😂😂 or you come out soend7ng £40 or £60 when you don't go that often 😂😂😂meeeee ❤❤❤my favourite shop 😂 great video hannah xx
This girl just can't stop talking, brilliant, what a star. Great entertainment. Keep up the great work 😂
Re sun creams .I am an older man . I use Nivea sun bronze cream and nivea Q10 healthy glow cream and sometimes CT Magic cream light.None of these stain clothes and all have SPF.A lot of people have said I am glowing ! Worth a try Hannah.
You should try the hay fever wipes , there amazing, stick them in the fridge , also to get the stains of your clothes , get a dishwasher tablet , add it to a cup pour a bit of boiling water to the cup and make a paste , use the paste to wipe on stain and leave it for a few hours then wash , the science is that it will dissolve the fats and grease in the stains eg sun cream, just like they do in a dishwasher with greasey pans etc , it works
Wouldn't washing up liquid work for the same reason?
🤓 Baking Soda is the aerator in stain remover, make a paste of baking soda, let dry brush off with old dry toothbrush. Also laundry detergent will set the stain 🤓
Here in the U.S. we have a few dollar type stores. They are called; Dollar Tree, Dollar General, and Family Dollar. Dollar Tree's prices went up to 1.25. They started carrying items for 3, 5 dollars too. The other stores carry items at 1.00 then go up. There are still alot of deals in all of them. I love that you mentioned Jeffree Star. He loved coming to England and buying drug store makeup there.
He has gone into the dollar stores here as well, and has done full reviews on them.
I have to say, I was impressed. He shows, even with all his money, that you can use less expensive makeup and it be and look good.
You found alot of great items... the toothpaste and deodorant gets expensive over here as well.
Thanks for great info great to learn 😊
I can only use the sensitive-formula Native deodorant - I’m allergic to anything else. It is about $13 per stick, definitely the most expensive deodorant I have ever purchased, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do.
In Canada we have Dollarama Stores, not much can be found for $1.00 any longer, things can sell for up to $5.00 lol
Same crooks over in UK. We use to have a 99p stores with incredible value as the quality of stuff was very good and as it became competitive with poundland they bought it out after some scam and closed it down. Now poundland is a ripoff
3⁰⁰
Yes, I live in Toronto, and agree that Dollarama is not what it used to be terms of pricing and quality. The British version, Poundland, looks much better!
I agree too, very little in Dollarama for 1 dollar these days. Greeting cards, have stayed a dollar though and chocolate bars, but most things are way over.
I think a trip to poundland is in order! ;)
I'd buy onion toss....if I knew what it was!!! 😁
See you Friday x
It doesn't sound any weirder than pickleball! 😄
If you are able to even make the Poundland store look glamorous than you are definitively The Queen of Vlogs
That's true. I want to go to Poundland now. ICELAND need to call Hannah ASAP.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Sunshine and Hannah cherping away ....just love it 😀 😍
My mum and I both watch your videos (my mum introduced me to your videos). We live in different countries at the moment but just dropping a comment here to say “hello mum” as I know she’ll watch this video later today 😁 love this style of videos btw 💗
This is so wholesome + sweet 🥹
That's awesome! Thanks so much!
Hi Hannah, your pondland stores are much better that the dollar tree stores we have here in the US.
6es, I agree. It seems as if they have nicer brands and better quality. Dollar Tree bought out the 99 cents stores and now they have so much junk.
I agree, their prices were so much better. I was amazed how cheap a bar of Dove soap was!
Its because 1 pound is actually 2 dollars😂
Agree!! Better quality stuff.
@@AnaMinMino. It’s £1 = USD 1.28
“Onion toss” for “pickle ball” - cracked me up 😅. You waffling on is the best part… love your vlogs, no matter how long 😎 🇺🇸
Isn’t she the most..
😊 thank you
Hahaha...waffling on...yes i like that and she is such a special Woman. I am German but I live in Canada (married a Canadian and moved to Toronto) 🙄not really my "cup of tea" as the British would say. Talking about Dove Deo Spray etc. 4 to 5 times more here
also. Germany has so much more to choose from and much less expensive. 😢
Oh well❣Sending 💖 to the UK. 🌍🌳👍
In the U.S. we have to be careful of toxic ingredients that the same brands in Europe can’t add.
Wait till you find out what's in your food
Definitely. Your food is full of chemicals and toxic stuff
@@Prometheushighafwe know and we don't care.
It not like we're dying in the streets over here😂
@@PrometheushighafYou can safely bet it won't have half the nasties that food in the US contains.
@@PrometheushighafYou can safely bet it won't have half the nasties that food in the US contains.
Your Poundland is so much better than our dollar stores here in Canada. Can’t believe the selection and the prices.
About your sunscreen staining your clothes. After you’ve worn something and you see it is stained you can try soaking it in a mixture of baking soda and white vinegar . Or a bit of Dawn dish washing liquid, Dawn works on just about any stain.
Yes you are so right, deodorant is crazy expensive here in U.S. as well as toothpaste. I near flipped a lid when I saw your Colgate for 1 pound. What!? That would be $7 here in the states
Thanks
Thanks so much!
The cream-colored homes you walk by are absolutely stunning. What a street!
Before you put in the washing machine could try rubbing gently some fairy liquid into your clothes, should help getting sun cream out, I use fairy a lot to get grease products out of clothes. X
Like the Dollar stores in the states, and the Chinese stores here in Greece. Some items are worth the low prices, others not. ❤😊
Poundland prices have also gone up outside of London BUT you can definitely pick up a bargain. I bought Biovene Hyaluronic Day Glow moisturiser for £2.50. It retails for £12, and is really good and has great reviews. I also like the new Pepco homeware. I love a Poundland bargain. x
Good deals are to be had at the pound store, but you have to be careful on certain items. Great and fun vlog! Thank you for sharing.
My life is complete. Watching you in Poundland reassures me life is great.🙏😜🦋👍
"Onion toss" 😅😅😅😅😅brilliant!❤
Great video, Hannah. I notice they sell Kershaw's frozen meals. I can highly recommend them! And no, I don't work for them! As for food prices in London, I've always managed to find places to buy food and drink when working in London that is the same price as where I live in the Midlands. On the Strand, for instance, the prices in Sainsbury's and the Co-Op are mostly the same. It just depends where you shop x
Ok, onion toss!? I totally cracked up. Thanks Hannah.
I’m American - I have heard about Poundland, but I’ve never seen a video in one. Looks like an awesome shop! It’s nice that they sell a bit of fresh produce. I was not expecting that.
We have Dollar Tree in the US, where things are $1.25 or higher. Enjoyed the tour. I always think UK prices are good. Thanks for taking us along.
Hannah your videos are great! The prices in the UK are way cheaper than our dollar store prices in the US.
Hello Hannah. Nothing like a tree lined street in spring sunshine to raise one's spirits, as well as make a pollen sufferer sneeze. I can empathize. Impressive how many bits and bobs you can put in your cart for twenty-eight quid+! Hannah, you mentioned Primrose Hill. Believe it or not I had actually been considering requesting it! I was imagining a daybreak vision from that iconic park bench with its splendid panoramic view over central London as first morning light appears. Anyway I'm glad you are getting a break from the moisture. Looks like I'm in for a lovely weekend. Take good care! I'll look for you again Friday.
Hannah thanks for this wonderful exercise in Pound Land . Subscribed and liked. James J Walsh in Limerick city Ireland 🇮🇪
Raging inflation has destroyed the business model of the £1 shop. More and more items are upwards of £1. What could they rebrand as ? Quids R Us ? Lowcost Co ?
We have 5 below in the US and it's always sold stuff up to $5.00. That's kinda what Dollar Tree is doing now.
In France the equivalent is "Deux Euro" stores.
@@sharonsmith583 I was thinking the same.... This looks a lot like the 5 Below stores
Hi there Hannah, your pound shops are amazing, we have dollar stores here in Canada, but nothing is a dollar any more apart from the candy, and knower near the selection of goods, being a ex brit I remember when the pound stores originally opened, then every thing was a quid keep it up lass always enjoy your little chats with us ♥
Good ' one £ shop'! You know Oral B. is the best! I bought some bin liners for $1.25. & some deodorant for £1 - bought 2 till next time - pay triple that even in Waitrose! 'Piece De Resistance' was the ' air fresh ball with infused marbles inside - I chose lavender! Goo-osh, sounds like I'm on a cleanup!
Hey, this is the 2nd time I've seen this - it is a good one - they are all good - I like the long chat at the end - thanks.
My ' great coat ' is the next purchase for the South West Winter. Don't think they are in £. shops - £100 or so! Only sparkling water I know of I get from my
local Waitrose - that & ' tonic water ' which makes me feel like Tarzan. 🐯🐘🦒 🙉.
Bless Badger.
Hi Hannah, I've seen the Liquid Death cans on sale in large branches of Tesco - hope that helps ! x
Thank you for showing us around Poundland.
I’m in my 30s, but that bell made me panic for a split second that I was late for class 😂
I love "Dollar Tree" Pound Land vlogs....all similar products in US & UK. Great place to bring kids to get gifts for family and friends (not breaking the bank)! I have trouble buying socks at these stores too...my feet are too big&wide! Have a great day Hannah!
Wonderful humour right on the money making me smile well done billy
I loved this video , you're so smart ! Thank you , I had fun ! in Finland we have these cheap shopping places like "Normal " or "Flying Tiger " but hardly this cheap. Oh, I would definetely got that cactus pot , two of them !
This is why I enjoy watching your videos with all of the
great information and things that you talk about in
London and the places to shop at thank you Hannah.
🇬🇧🇬🇧👋👋
We live in the middle of nowhere, and any big town/city shop is either 50 minutes drive one way, or an hour and half the other. So poundland along with other shops becomes a treat. I do note the two we have potential access to, have less variety as your London one, which probably makes sense, maybe it's a different market. Country folks get less options. Often the shelves are not stocked so well as that one. Although i noted they had the prime drink you spoke of near the check out in Hereford when we was there on Monday. I often note people be little poundland and the bargain shops, but note they often nip into them for essentials and little items. It's nice to compare to the real fancy ones like Harrods. Thanks again for a lovely show, as a side thought i use Clarins sunblock, SPF50+ dry touch sun cream and these doesn't seem to mess up my clothes. Cheers.
"Onion Toss"....Hannah you are hysterical!! Love Dollar Tree here in N. Carolina. We were recently in Montreal and the Dollarama there was amazing, especially the kitchen/baking area. I loved this video even if it made me homesick for London. Thanks. 🤩🤩⭐⭐
Hi Hannah, I discovered you at Christmas and loved every fancy afternoon tea,mall wandering, all the beautiful store fronts,decor galore everywhere! I thought discovering you was just about getting through an " off" Christmas for me. Discovered I love everything about you from your humor and knowledge to content of all sorts. Still watching from SW,Washington, USA and enjoying all you do ! BTW, London weather is almost exactly like ours in the PNW. ❤
This is such a fun video to watch!!!😊Poundlands seem to be much better stores than the Dollar Trees in the U.S. Much better selection of items.
Love your accent and the fact that you keep chatting away without hardly talking a breath.🤣
I have lived inAustralia now for17 years, having lived in Bournemouth, Salisbury, Ringwood Oxford and Poole.
I can’t believe how cheap things are there!
We pay three times the price of those things here. Australia is becoming far too expensive.
Love watching this from Melbourne as a former pound shop worker in the UK. Here it is a $2.80 shop but everything costs more anyway. Watched till the end but then felt bad for messing with your algorithm!
This is such a fun video to watch.poundlands seem to be much better stores than the Dollar Trees in the U.S.Much better selection of items.
Love the onion toss! Laughed in out loud!!!😂😊
Back home in France now I went into Pound land and Pound stretchers , The one in Kilburn OMG Hannah I used to live close to Kilburn High Road Station, for like 4 years, So much items in that Pound land not like others I have been in. Was that Coco Channell bag you had my daughter wants to know, Well if you wear clear high sun factor make-up then you wont get stains on your clothes , Merci Jean-Marc😊
In Canada there's also,a buck or two stores, also how many wagon wheels did you buy when you snuck back in 😂😂🎉you are excellent 👌 spokesperson for uk shopping 🛒🛍️❤
I was only having fun with you about wagon wheels 🛞😅😅
There is a store in Asia with the same concept as the pound store and it's called daiso Japan and it is heaven on earth, phenomenal.🥰nice video 😊
I’m Scottish but living in America. When I first moved things seemed so so cheap but not now..deodorant is closer to $7 for a good one. I use native and often pay about $10
Dish soap about $6 etc…things have gotten very expensive here since covid
Your normal CT lippy colour is gorge........ just Googled and it would cost me ZAR 700.00 here 😭......... Unf no can do at that price 😱. We do not have the pleasure of low cost stores like the UK does which is good as it encourage one to buy more items to collect dust 🙄🤣 Enjoy !!!
I love when you take us shopping, great shop, going to look for a similar one here. I've cut out suggery things also. .... and crisps . Thanks Hannah, enjoyed watching 😁 👍🏻❤
Beautiful day in London. Enjoyed seeing sunshine.
Greetings from Seattle, Washington state. Hello Hannah, I've been enjoying your video coverages on the posh places in London & nearby places. We also have "Dollar Stores" here where I live, which I go to at times. Recently, I've ran into another U.K. vlogger "Rate My Take Away", the guy goes to different sandwich shops there. He is quite unusual and his quirky approach to vlogging is quite entertaining. Anyway, I just want to say hello & I really enjoy your video coverages. Personally, you've given me video experiences in the feel of the posh stores in London (i.e. Harrods, Fortnum & Mason) also, dining at the Ritz Carlton. These are the experiences that I've never had before during my 2 European trips of the Baltics & Mediterranean. It is beneficial to a would be tourist of your lovely city on what to expect. You're doing a great job in showing off London, and nearby cities. Sincerely, Juan
Girl after my own heart ,love a bargain and always a joy to shop with you Hannah.hahaha you waffle as much as you want makes me smile.x❤️
Your Pound Land in London is much nicer than other stores that I've seen throughout the U.K. The merchandise, in some parts, was pretty nice, certainly for the price. I still don't own outdoor light bulbs because I Am Picky so you did great. I hope you enjoy your lights. p.s. The tail end of your videos are when you are the funniest.
Hey Hannah!..Always a great day when the sun is shining..Your Poundland store sure has a lot of variety, my god..We have dollar stores here in New Jersey, U.S...I used to go with my Mom ,she would get greeting cards and the like..I can watch you all day, your so fun feel like I've known you a long time..anyway..did my yard work..trimmed my shrubs..hot here about 85..now just going to relax after your vlog. Getting pizza later today..Enjoy your evening and will catch you next time Hannah Bye for now dear..
Omg yes, deodorant here in the US is SO expensive! The cheapest ones are like $5 or more. I try to buy the more “natural”, aluminum-free ones and spent $13 the other day on deodorant at Target. 😭
I didn't know deodorant was still a thing. I thought no one used it now. It's not good for the body.
I saw another comment saying this too. Now I’m curious why it’s so expensive in America, I’m off to Google! 😂
Probly made in india for people working for ten pence hour thats why they can sell a thing over here for pound or two
Another great vlog from The Queen of UA-cam. I hate shopping but love to watch you shop. You are very entertaining and your commentary has me rolling. Enjoyed the camera info. Look forward to seeing you at Harrods. ❤ from America
Those round, indoor lights in the sort of sea-green, sage and light yellow colors you were holding for £3, I think, are being sold in a shop near me for about €30! You make the Pound Store look so luxurious! The Euro Store closest to me is a kip - but I'm out in the country! 😂
"Is it dinner time? " When the bell went haha
I just watched a Poundland vlog. and I was intrigued! Only from Hannah
I love when you waffle on! It makes me laugh, not in a bad way-I’ve had an empty nest for about 3 years now and I miss my daughter chatting to me. So no worries with me, I love it!
I found this Poundland one very useful. Not been into one of these stores for years but I spotted things I would get . So will visit soon
In the US our dollar stores sell many things for a dollar that are sold for less at other stores. So, we don’t always get a bargain at the Dollar Store.
Much the same in the UK, many items that were £1 in poundland are 89p or so elsewhere. The big supermarkets are £1.25 though because they are profiteering.
Hey Hannah, Happy Tuesday! I absolutely loved your vlog and presentation; you have such positive energy and are so down to earth. Your vlog was super useful, especially the information about shopping in the UK. I was comparing the prices in the UK with those in the States. By the way, the food at Popeyes isn't that great in the US! A lot of Americans avoid that kind of food. Anyway, have a lovely Tuesday night, and I hope you have a fantastic rest of the week. See you on Friday! 💐🇬🇧❤🇺🇸💐
“Onion toss”!!! It just doesn’t get any better than that. I Love your videos - whatever length you want them.
Those ceramic pots are a phenomenal value! Wow! I like a lemon motif too. Especially when they put it with other citrus fruits too. I would buy those grapes every day. Yummy.
Loved the green cactus 🌵 jar 😂😂👍
Funny how I'm starting to even miss the little things in Blighty....like Poundland. 😢 Cheers for this Hannah! 😘
We love you Hannah..keep on truckin!👍
In Ireland those antihistamines are £4.68p for 30 !!!!! Nearly 5x the price.
great video as always keep up the good work Hannah.
Onion toss 😂😂 Tell me about onion toss, maybe my students will want to play.
A lot of the sunscreens have changed their formulas to be reef safe or mineral based and that could be the cause. I’m no expert but I do live in FL and your issue has happened to me and most of staining never came out. Also, I get the struggle with sweets, right there with you. Could go on about other things in the video but that would be a full on conversation. Great video even if you waffled at the end 🙂
You should try Aldi sparkling water it is amazing and if there is five below in UK the liquid death is sold there.love vlogs keep up great work..❤
Hi Hanna,
I enjoy all your episodes about London and all of the best places to visit, especially the really British shops and traditions. Im living and working in Northamptonshire, England.I’m originally from Down Under,(Aussie). In the 90’s I rented in Wembley, zone 4, loved living in London. The liquid death is sold at Tesco,s , cool branding ! There is a energy drink called Celsius that has 200mg of caffeine , but can’t get this in the Uk, unfortunately .
Cheers,
Glenn
I've been watching your vlogs for quite a while now, and often when I'm watching them while working, my husband comes into my office (we both work from home) and says "is that Hannah??" 😅We really enjoy watching your videos, and you convinced my husband to buy the Osmo Pocket 3!! We got it a few weeks ago, right before we went to Europe for a week, and it was GREAT! We are in the US and they don't have just the camera available right now (all on backorder) so we had to get the "vlogger combo pack" thing, but we both think it was money well spent. It came with your same microphone, the tripod, an extra (large) battery, and that extra little thing needed to attach the tripod, plus a case to keep it all in. We pretended we were vloggers while we recorded in Europe hahahahahaha but it was super fun and the videos are really awesome to have! We've never really recorded all of our world trips and now I wish we had gotten the camera years ago! 😆 Anyway, all that to say - thank you for talking about the camera, we appreciate it, and thank you for convincing my husband to buy one! 💖
Thanks so much! Glad you had a great time and filmed it!
Love the trip round poundland with you, shame all poundland don't stock the same things in all their stores.
I have had trouble with sunscreen stains too. I did some research and found that avobenzone ( a common sunscreen filter in the US ) reacts with hard water when you wash your clothes to create rust stains. Try a product that is specifically for removing rust. Not sure if you have avobenzone in UK sunscreens but it is worth checking!
I'm late to the party but use fairy liquid on the sun screen stains. Rub in gently with your finger tips and then wash as normal. It breaks down the oils in the screen and takes it out
If you love lemon 🍋 things, Flying Tiger have tons of summery lemon items including blankets, dishes, glasses, lights, napkins, picnic items etc. I was in the other day and almost bought the lot! It would be awesome to do a vlog on Flying Tiger and the other Scandi shop here - Söstrene Grene? At Tottenham Court rd. there are two a couple doors down from each other - perhaps they are sister stores? Such good value for money!
“ Onion toss “ 🤣🤣 Your pound shops have so much variety it’s amazing. Ours in Australia are good but 😀
Hi Hannah. Love your videos. Rubbing alcohol will remove marks from make up and oily products from clothing cheers Sharon from Australia
Onion toss!! LOL! I’ve never played pickle ball, I wouldn’t even recognize it if I saw someone playing it. But onion toss really cracked me up.
Great video Hannah! For clothing stains, including from sun care products, soak them in cold water using BABY laundry detergent for about an hour or until you no longer see the stain. A small amount of detergent should do it. Good luck!
Hannah any purchase with Sunglasses and protection off eyes Should mean Quality = Trade names and reasonable to high Prices..
Awesome video Hannah. Your rambling at the end was the best part. Wish you hadn’t have edited out you laughing to the onion toss comment! That was gold.
Hannah, your blouse is soooooo pretty! It looks great on you. I want one too. ❤
Removing sunscreen stains will be tricky, because it will depend on the content of the fabric. You could try some sort of Oxy cleaner diluted until you see what it will do-most brands recommend testing on an inconspicuous spot. Also, maybe baking soda mixed with a mild dish detergent. I would worry that bleach would be too strong and could destroy the fabric. Good luck!
This is like a 5 Below in the U.S. Love exploring London with you every week ❤
One Beyond is a pound and above store in the north.We also have Poundland freezer food section in Colne Lancs where I live.The Asian mega bargain stores in and around Colne and Burnley are brilliant value.
🤓 gift bag for £1 with a thing 🤣😂🤣 I love shopping with Hannah 🤗🤗🤗
I don’t know how to get the sun cream stain out but I used to get that and now I use Sol tan (brand) and it doesn’t stain clothes! ❤
Hi Hannah! Your pound store had a better selection than ours in the states. Our .99 cent store & Dollar Tree are now at least $1.49. And you have to pay a quarter to use the shopping cart at the .99 Cent store. You do get it back when you put the cart back. Thanks again for a wonderful vlog as always 🌹. See you Friday 🌼😁. BTW: beautiful blouse ❤
Yeh, I can relate to the wrong trash bag size for my bin.. its pretty "life-wrecking", indeed. And for sure, "onion toss" must absolutely go viral - everyone spread it around (and give Hannah credit). Hannah, you are hilarious.
Re suntan lotion stains - Charlie, of Ask Charlie has suggested the blue Fairy liquid rubbed gently into stain then rinse. Do it a couple of times and then wash as normal. Haven't tested it, but love her advice generally. Hope it's helpful. x
Hi Hannah, I could listen to you all day, your videos are an art, the flow of your speech is hypnotising, and I feel like your friend on a shopping trip ❤😊
Totally agree.
Very calming voice.
