One of the giants of the UK pound shop market has moved online for the convenience of its customers. Poundland has opened an online shopping website where customers will be able to buy all items online for £1 and a £4 delivery fee – or free on orders of over £50.

This should enable customers who are too busy to get to the shops to get what they need with added convenience. Goods bought from the online shop will be delivered within 3-5 working days. However, only people on the UK mainland and Northern Ireland will be able to access deliveries, with the Scottish islands, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man excluded from this £4 delivery fee.

The online shopping market in the UK is mushrooming with growth set to continue in almost every sector. Poundland dipping its toe in the water of the ultra cheap end of the spectrum should show the depth and breadth of the potential of online shopping in the UK.
