21.2.11 Pound World

If I had my way, Poundworld, or Poundland, or any 'Pound' shop should adopt a British approach to retail, and sell stuff by the pound - weight, not coinage!  The 'lb' or 'LB' shop would be a rather good twist on the whole budget approach, selling by weight.  You walk in, and whether it's nails, screws, chocolate, cornflakes or Garibaldi biscuits, you get a pound of them - none of this kilo/gramme shit, where the retailers and manufacturers collude to rip us all off by playing games, reducing pack sizes, and fucking with our minds.

Now, if any commodity could be sold at a "Pound a Pound", that would be perfect!
