A brand new Poundstretcher store will be opening this week.

The new branch of the discount chain will open at High Street, Wealdstone, just in time for Christmas Eve (December 24) for last-minute bargains.

It will open up at 10am and to mark the opening £200 worth of vouchers will be donated to Harrow Foodbank.

Members of staff, both part and full time, from the local area are being recruited.

Property and legal Director, Gerry Loughran, said: “We are pleased to be opening a brand new store to the people of Wealdstone with lots of fantastic branded products, all at bargain prices, and look forward to opening another 50 stores over the coming months, creating over 1,000 jobs.

“The team is working hard to deliver an outstanding shopping experience, great service, and an enjoyable shopping environment for all our new customers. We are expecting massive queues for our opening day, so come early to catch the bargains!”
