The Times City Diary carried a piece about a £ store in London which is making a virtue out of the current difficulties
Beat the credit crunch. Everything £1. Same price since 1990
Up here yet another £ store has taken a different route & their sign now reads All Items from £1. An explanatory notice informs that Due to customer demand we will now stock items which cost more than £1
They have even closed for 2 weeks for a refit, presumably to fit the upmarket image
