She also explained which products people can get better deals on at supermarkets

An ITV consumer expert has highlighted six things everyone should buy in Poundland – including one food staple which is 44 per cent less. Grace Forell, who regularly appears on ITV’s This Morning, explained how people should not do their weekly shop in the high street discount store – but take advantage of some bargains.

She said the best value categories tend to be big brand toiletries and cleaning products. If you’re loyal to brands like Nivea, Head & Shoulders, Colgate, Flash, Astonish, Elbow Grease and added ‘you’ll often find Poundland is the best place to buy. ‘

However, she added: “It’s less impressive when it comes to snacks and store cupboard items, as you’ll often get a better deal at the supermarket on multi-buys. “

Six Poundland staples:

• She said Flash cleaning spray is £2 in Poundland – and between £2.44 – £3.35 elsewhere – a potential saving of 40%
• Astonish Sprays – white vinegar and mould and mildew stain remover are cheap there – average saving of around 30%
• Big brand toiletries are good value – Grace highlighted a Nivea day cream for £2 – with it being £5,50 to £6 elsewhere – saving 65%.
• Colgate toothpaste is normally cheaper at Poundland. Grace highlighted Max White Sparkle Diamonds toothpased currently “£2 – elsewhere it’s £2.33 – £3.75 – a saving of up to 47%.
• Sure deodorant and Head and Shoulders shampoo usually a bargain
• Heiz Baked Beans – single tin £1 – normally £.138 – £1.80 e;sewhere -a potential saving of 44%/ She added: “A single tin of Hienz beans for £1 is hard to come by and it’s one of Poundland’s standout bargains – but if you’re buying multipack, supermarkets are often better value.”

She explained: “Remember, Poundland is less a place to do a full weekly show and more of a specialist bargain stop. It’s particularly good for branded toiletries with high supermarket mark-ups, cult cleaning products and specialist stain removers, a handful of pantry staples, and emergency top-ups that would cost more in a convenience store.”

Her golden rules:

• Always check the unit price. A lower shelf price doesn’t mean better value if the pack is smaller (you sometimes see this at Poundland).
• Don’t assume everything is cheaper. Chocolate, crisps and soft drinks are often better bought on supermarket loyalty offers.

• Be wary of multipacks. Poundland sometimes wins on individual items, but supermarkets usually come out ahead on family-sized packs.
• Stock up on genuine bargains. If you find a branded product you use regularly and it’s substantially cheaper, buying a spare makes sense.
• You can pick up single tins of Heinz baked beans for £1 though – which is consistently the best price (per unit) around.
• One thing is for sure: while it isn’t the place to do a full weekly shop, it offers much better value than most convenience stores.

More Kraft Heinz products will be available in Walt Disney Co.’s U.S.-based theme parks and on cruise ships after the two companies recently inked a multiyear partnership.

Ten Kraft Heinz brands will be part of the deal, including Heinz, Philadelphia cream cheese and Kraft Mac & Cheese, the companies said in a statement Tuesday.

Both Disney and Heinz declined to comment on the financial terms of the deal, but a Heinz spokesperson said it is Disney’s “highest level of partnership” and designed to be an ongoing effort.

The partnership, which begins this summer, will result in new menu items, experiences and product offerings at Anaheim’s Disneyland Resort, Orlando’s Walt Disney World and on Disney cruise ships sailing out of ports in North America.

In the short term, new Heinz condiment stations and custom-designed equipment will be installed throughout the parks, the companies said.

Beyond the use of Kraft Heinz brands at Disney parks and on cruise ships, the partnership also allows for “integrated marketing campaigns” and digital content across Disney’s media platforms.

“Together we will build creative experiences for our consumers across our destinations, platforms, and fan touchpoints,” Becca Vodnoy, Walt Disney Co. senior vice president of corporate alliances, said in the statement.
