I was banned from the pound shop for being too rich but I’ll never say no to a bargain & my tip gets clothes cheaper too
A WOMAN who’s been banned from her local pound shop for being too rich has insisted she’ll shop in there if she wants.
Saffron explained that she was confronted by one of the employees at the store when she went in previously.
“A while ago I went into the pound shop and the lady working on the till said, ‘Are you not the girl that gets money from men?'” she said in a video on her TikTok page.
“I said ‘hell yes!’
“Then she shut me down and told me that I shouldn’t be shopping in the pound shop.
“If I’m earning so much money like okay sis I love a bit of pound shop!”
Saffron, who works as a stripper and is also a sugar baby, added that she was keeping a close eye out for the woman when she was looking round the shop.
She headed to the clothes section first and loved the Barbie options on offer, although all of them were far too big for her.
However, Saffron didn’t let that deter her, and found a T-shirt from the kids section that will fit her “100%”.
It was cheaper than an adult’s T-shirt too.
“They also had really cute pyjamas as well but again none in my size,” she sighed.
“What is going on with the sizes in this pound shop??”
She then headed over to the cleaning section and admitted she can’t get on board with everyone loving Fabulosa and Zoflora.
“I am such a typical bleach girl,” she said.
“I don’t think you can beat the smell of original bleach!”
After hunting for a water bottle but failing miserably, Saffron made her way to the tills.
“When I got to the checkout the woman still wasn’t there!” she said.
“Today was a safe shop in the pound shop.
How to bag a bargain
SUN Savers Editor Lana Clements explains how to find a cut-price item and bag a bargain…
Sign up to loyalty schemes of the brands that you regularly shop with.
Big names regularly offer discounts or special lower prices for members, among other perks.
Sales are when you can pick up a real steal.
Retailers usually have periodic promotions that tie into payday at the end of the month or Bank Holiday weekends, so keep a lookout and shop when these deals are on.
Sign up to mailing lists and you’ll also be first to know of special offers. It can be worth following retailers on social media too.
When buying online, always do a search for money off codes or vouchers that you can use vouchercodes.co.uk and myvouchercodes.co.uk are just two sites that round up promotions by retailer.
Scanner apps are useful to have on your phone. Trolley.co.uk app has a scanner that you can use to compare prices on branded items when out shopping.
Bargain hunters can also use B&M’s scanner in the app to find discounts in-store before staff have marked them out.
And always check if you can get cashback before paying which in effect means you’ll get some of your money back or a discount on the item.
“I didn’t get judged today, thank God!”
“This shop is actually fun for me, its not all about spending lots in shops sometimes the simplest pleasures come from the small things!” Saffron added in the video caption.
The comments section was almost immediately filled with people hitting back at the employee who had criticised Saffron, with one writing: “How dare she come with that talk to you!
“It’s not her business anyway.
“You are a normal customer going to shop!”
“How rude are they, seriously?” another raged.
“Telling you you cannot come in their shop because of how you make your money.
“That is absolutely shocking for them to say!”
“Wow people have always got something to say!” a third commented.
“The fact you haven’t punched multiple people in the face yet, if it doesn’t show what a classy lady you are, I’m not sure what will !!”
“Did you not complain? Seriously I wouldn’t of had it,” someone else insisted.
As another wrote: “That woman sounded jealous to me, I can’t lie!”
“No matter how much money I’d have I’d always go on a £1 shop trip,” someone else commented.
With Saffron replying: “Love a bit of pound shop, me!”
