Hi, I need a powerbank for going on holiday with. But I’m on a very tight budget, so need one that’s pretty cheap, I’ve narrowed it down to these two, which would you consider as better quality

They are being sold at my local home bargains for 60P

Looks just like a real Lego! (It's not...it's Blockz) Whole set cost under £10 from Home Bargains in the UK. Wife bought me most of the sets a few weeks ago, but I was missing the last set - my local stores didn't have it in. Well, today I was delivering to a shop in a different town and there was a Home Bargains next door. For 99p I got the last bit of the set 😁

What are people's thoughts on the discount stores such as Home Bargains and B&M? I popped into my local B&M recently to try and buy a new mop head. The cleaning aisle was pretty packed but the only mopping items I could find was the reuseable Flash ones. The only other alternative was to buy a new mop which I didn't really want. So I had a quick browse round the shelves but didn’t see much that seemed a bargain or particularly useful. To expand on the above question, do you regularly shop at the above stores and, if so, what do you find to be of good value?

Saw some wooden art mannequins at Home Bargains (a retail chain in the UK), and bought a few of them to customise them into some of the Mannequin characters. They were like, a couple of pounds each. Had to tag this post as fan art, since there currently isn't one for customs. Abel: He's literally the easiest one to customise, as you'd just need a sharpie or any black permanent marker to doodle a smiley face. Additional Voices (lilac): He's complete. Just had to paint a fairly thin layer of lilac acrylic paint onto a wooden mannequin. Disappearing Guy: Currently not yet complete. Just to find some modelling clay to craft his hat. Ming: Same deal as Disappearing Guy...

I've decided to do a complete remake of my resume. With my previous resume, which was basically a 2 page giant wall of text, I had zero responses. I've got no professional experience in the industry which is a bummer and is probably what is making it so much harder. I'm looking for mechanical engineering roles mainly, but across all sectors, so I'm open to jobs in the civil sector, automotive, HVAC, aerospace etc. In fact I'd even be open to finance...

I've been using a different resume before this that was horrible, too lengthy, bad format no STAR technique. But now I have implemented that and cut it down. I used the template provided in this subreddits wiki. What you think can be improved still? I'm open to jobs in all kinds of sectors as long as they are mechanical based, which is why I've tried to talk about skills that can be used across the board.

Hi all, hoping for some local advice. We parked at ASDA Linwood while buying groceries for a large group. After finishing the shop, we drove to nearby stores (e.g. Home Bargains) to pick up other things, then returned to ASDA the same day to get the remaining items we’d forgotten. A few days later, we received a ParkingEye charge for “returning within 2 hours”. The issue is that we genuinely don’t remember seeing any clear or obvious signage about a “no return within 2 hours” rule when we parked. Nothing stood out at the entrance or around the car park, and as we’re not from the area, we had no reason to expect this restriction. If we’d been aware of the rule, we obviousl...

I currently can't wear antiperspirant due to developing a bad reaction (itching/ burning sensation) I switched to a different one and for a while it was fine until the reaction came back after maybe 6 months. I don't shave so it's not a reaction from that, I keep the hair neat and not too long. I plan to keep trialing different antiperspirants, mostly hoping to find a natural one I like. In the day it's not so bad but at night I run hot and wake hating the way I smell if I don't wear deoderant to bed. I used to use these wipes called 'skin and surface antibacterial wipes' from Home Bargains in England, they were absolutely amazing for wiping myself down, sp...

I'm getting back into the gym after a long break and decided to find the best value for money whey protein and creatine. Got to say, when comparing different products and online stores I wasnt prepared for the assault of deliberate obfuscation of key information, crappy websites, dark patterns and borderline scammy marketing tactics that seems to have taken over the sector in my absence :( The prices for similar products are all over the place which tells me that I'm not wasting my time on this task, but can someone give me a shortcut to the answer I'm looking for? I don't care about flavours or 'extras' just the highest amount of protein per £. I seem to rem...

Instagram is enlightening me to the fact B&M/Home Bargains seem to trade in all these weird and wonderful version of branded food and drink that are never available in regular supermarkets. For example: Pepsi Max Tropical or all these different flavours of Milky Bars etc etc. You get the picture. It's a different approach to the very fun Lidl/Aldi model of ripping off famous brands for their own-brand products. I just don't get the model for this - as they are ostensibly a 'bargain' store, I would have thought all this niche product, presumably produced in much smaller quantities than the regular varieties, was much more expensive to procure. Are they used as a te...

My Mom has been describing these chocolates to me for the past few months, and she’s genuinely at a loss. She describes them as being in a dark brown bag, called something like ‘Chocolate Assortments’ or something like that (maybe Belgian but not definitely?), and she used to get them from cheap stores like Home Bargains, B&M etc. She thinks there was a coffee flavour one in there alongside the usual lot. It wasn’t branded either, so not Cadbury or anything. But you could find this specific one in many bargain stores. Any help appreciated to help my Mom!

Today I found these Gormiti Legends large Poivrons and Magmion figures in Home Bargains, and also the smaller Troncalion set. They were all £4.99 each. I suspect these are only available in the larger stores. I suppose it's too much to hope that anything else turns up, but I haven't seen Gormiti in the UK for a very long time and was very pleased to see them.
