Poundland is shutting down its website.
In just over a week, the cheap retailer will say goodbye to its domain name, shop.poundland.co.uk.
Customers will be thrown into a loop since they will no longer be able to order directly from the bargain shop online.
Customers have until midnight on May 27 to purchase products from the store’s online before it closes its virtual doors.
It’s because the discount retailer will redirect thousands of products to Poundshop.com.
Poundland purchased the comparable online cheap retail business in March, with intentions to transfer over its own products, such as its Pep&Co collection, for additional customers to enjoy.
Poundland.co.uk, on the other hand, isn’t going anywhere anytime soon, so fans can still explore inexpensive goods and see what’s available in-store from the comfort of their own homes.
In an experiment last June, Poundland set up a separate online gateway (the shop.poundland.co.uk site) that would allow thousands of shoppers to order directly to their doors.
Poundland products could be ordered for home delivery in selected postcodes in Birmingham and Walsall, as well as across the Midlands and into South Yorkshire, as part of the test.
Those services, however, will be discontinued when the site permanently closes later this month.
That is why executives are eager to introduce Poundland’s products to the internet store.
“It’s lovely to enthusiastically welcome the Poundshop.com team to Poundland,” stated Barry Williams, Poundland’s managing director.
“With this acquisition, we are putting force and speed behind our ambitions.”
To make our incredible items and value available to customers across the UK and Ireland, regardless of where they buy.”
The site already offers standard delivery on orders over £10, as well as next-day delivery for consumers willing to pay a little extra.
And you’ll still be able to get all of your favorite Poundland items, such as the “iconic” Twin Peaks chocolate bar and #6 Beauty brands.
It also sells special Land of Nod sleep products.
