Conspiracy theory: the poundland goodies box was literally created for stuart because it has his unofficial catchphrase "what more could you want" on it
You know, for literally a decade now I have watched you kneeling at the same couch, with the same affect, reviewing some variation of the same tat... and I have never gotten tired of it. Stay fresh, cheese bag.
My thoughts at the end: “That £1 mug’s actually surprisingly high qual-“ **smaller mug handle breaks clean off clinking with larger one** “That’s more like it.”
You say troll, they say unoriginal boring joke. Falls in the category of done to death like "Would you like sugar with that?" "No thanks, I'm sweet enough ;)"
Nor proceed to smash said troll's face off with a golf club for asking, as Ashens said once upon a time. Ah, popstations the one day, 150 year old olives and poundland boxes the next, how time flies. :')
I've been watching this channel for 10 years and it still amazes me that Ashens hasn't changed a single thing about the way he makes videos, just constant quality tat reviews.
I am glad you have made a nice video on Poundland. A lot of families on the breadline rely on the shop for their daily needs. Respect My Man and keep up the good work
I was about to send this to Stuart as well and then I saw your post. I can't believe more people didn't notice this.... It seems that Stuart was probably using the poundland calculator...
Where have you been all my UA-cam life? A random channel find but quite frankly, one of the funniest. That battery acid tinned fermented fish though. Kill me now.
A big mug with an equally tall bar-code. I've never seen one like that before. I suppose it would make scanning a bit easier, actually, but that was still rather amusing.
Notice how the box says "Fan" and NOT "Fans" as in plural Plus "What more could you want?" Is the phrase ashens uses widely throughout his poundland videos.
I feel like as an Australian it’s wild to me that things like Poundland and dollar tree exist and everything inside is a dollar, with have “2 dollar shops” here but things are actually 2 dollars or more, sometimes less, but typically old stock or cheaply made or knockoffs, I feel like the convenience factor is there for the idea of a whole store where everything is 2 dollars but the Aussie dollar is pretty worthless especially in the economic crisis we are having, way before the economic crisis you could find 2 dollar stores and most of the candy of small things at the front of shop where 2 dollars but that hasn’t been a thing since I was a kid, also they are all usually independently owned and not a chain brand, it’s a shame we never really had those stores here, at least that I’m aware of
Small brain: remembering that you need to get chives Medium brain: writing a note on your phone to get chives Big brain: contacting Ashens who is 3536.9 km away from you to send you a written note that reminds you to buy chives
If Ashens does Poundland clothing, it would make sense to ask the Cheapshow lads on. Eli used to do the Poor Man's Cosplay so he's used to wearing tat and Paul's all Jackamo and Primark anyway. Plus they can do the 'matching couples thing' after which they'll probably have a bare knuckle match, so it'll all be a matching theme.
I love how the larger mug broke the smaller one at the end.
SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST
Just proves you really get your money's worth when you spend that extra pound
The weak should fear the strong
Survival of the shittest
Pound for pound the £2 mug won
At least the smaller mug will fit inside the larger one now.
If they don’t make a t-shirt that says “i’ll be taking you to poundland tonight” i’ll riot

It's like they were specifically targeting Ashens with that "For Poundland's no. 1 fan!" tagline
The "what more could you want" is defo a very ashens phrase
Perhaps there's a cheeky ashens fan in the marketing team
Thought the same thing.
Also, "What more could you want"? Stuart says it all the time.
for me it was the "What more could you want?" line.
after so many years there's no way someone in pundland hasnt picked up on it
Conspiracy theory: the poundland goodies box was literally created for stuart because it has his unofficial catchphrase "what more could you want" on it

Chef excellence approves
An excellent format.
Beautiful. That could make a sad onion smile.
I find his couch vids cosy for some reason, no homo.
The couch must go into a museum should Ashens ever die or decide to redecorate.
2:04 I literally laughed out loud when stuart said he has a Poundland uniform someone sent him! Give this man the "No.1 Poundland fan" medal now!!!
My thoughts at the end:
“That £1 mug’s actually surprisingly high qual-“
**smaller mug handle breaks clean off clinking with larger one**
“That’s more like it.”
Yup "high quality"
At least now it'll fit in the giant mug.
I didn't even see that at first 🤣🤣
It's not 'incinerating My Little Pony blind bag items' level, but it'll do. It'll do.
THE WEAK SHOULD FEAR THE STRONG
At this point, they really should just print "Dear Ashens" at the top of every box.
"It's like poundland is becoming more meta" And you, Ashens, are part of that meta. "For poundland's #1 fan" - - They know!
Imagine a pair of booty shorts that say "amazing value every day"
I wish!
Or Poundland
@@moi5219 😆
That would be smart and cheeky.
I will not be convinced that they didn’t make the box specifically for this video to happen.
There’s a group of Poundland employees somewhere, smiling in joy as they watch this.
I wouldnt be surprised if this was the only one that exist.
I mean, it _does_ say "for Poundland's #1 fan" right on the box...
They should just stick ashens logo instead lol I get more people will be tempted to buy that
@@jk9554 They even used the phrase "What more could you want?".
The comedy that is the big mug breaking the small mug at the end.

Now you can’t troll the Poundland staff by asking “how much is this?”

You realize, Stuart, that they did this largely for you.
Wait really?
@@aturchomicz821 "For Poundland's #1 Fan"

They did it only for him. In fact, they only made one box and placed it squarely on display in the front of the store so he would see it.
Yah I kinda thought so to
Like they were thinking well we are getting free advertising from this ashens guy less pander to him a bit
Handle flies off at the end.. That Poundland quality we all know and love.

Could you pop that Chives note on my desk pls. Knew I needed something.

Ashens: Delivers
It'll fit even better now that the handle has been removed

Thats a shirt.

I think it’s a new thing. I saw they also did a ‘box of sass’ one with the same items but in mostly pink with ‘sass’ designs and text xx

Your voice reminds me of a time when UA-cam didn't suck
"I'm not planning on dying for at least three weeks" caught me so off guard

I actually needed green onions, not chives . Thanks a lot Ashens.
As it happens, I am in dire need of chives. I'll have my mate pick up the fridge note later, thanks Ashens.
You guys are just chive-talking
You think you've got problems, I need scallions! :'O
omg - i remember watching you when i was younger, you were hilarious and loved watching you! finally found you again - WHAT A BLESSING! xxx

You broke the mug with the other mug at the end.
Now does this mean Poundland mugs are high quality or low quality...
Yes.
Both
Neither. Poundland mugs just are
@@IsesoneuBorja Well, no, the smaller one very much _isn't,_ after being obliterated by the larger one.
It means that the big one is bigger.
Ashens literally is Poundlands #1 fan
I genuinely thought Ashens photoshopped the "What more could you want?" on the thumbnail image.
Poundland has gone off the deep end with this
They definitely took Ashens into consideration before making this
Brilliant, my night is made. Have a good one Stuart!
"Ouu free stains"
Wouldn't get that with a £1 mug.
Well, I guess that pound mug is gonna fit in the two pound mug now.
"Ooh free stains"! I love you Stuart. Never change, man. Super excited to see your next film as well!
*When you pound a poundland mug with a poundland mug*
"Buy more chives"
Truly those are words to live by.
The £2 mug is angry. It must be, for it tore off the handle of the £1 mug.

Oh wow Walcom watches Ashens!! We need lots more Tagback!
We had shops here in South Africa called R10 stores (10 rand store). But as with Poundland inflation got to it and now they are called Crazy stores.
A brand new Ashens video just as soon as I was dying of boredom!
I was actually dying.
Gotta tell you Stuart, that "For Poundland's #1 Fan" thing made me think this was something they sent specifically to you and I was hype.
One Below is now the de-facto for everything costing less than a pound. The place is absolutely class.
The handle broke off the little mug...could have put it in the larger mug
A big mug with an equally tall bar-code.

This is fantastic, but Stuart is probably the entire market for this stuff
I'll have to assume his math when calculating the value was intentionally wrong

Haha I don't see the Dollar Stores have these in their assortment. Would be a fun trade!
Dollar Tree tends to have more big brands than Poundland.
Found your channel a couple of days ago and I’m completely obsessed! Such brilliant videos.

Ashens can’t count £5
“That’s £3, so a pound left”
Love Castle you can’t count either. It’s clearly 25p left.
I love that Poundland is even in on the joke of itself.
They are literally quoting Ashens with "what more could you want?"
