Pound stop bargins

I need some cheap paintbrushes for painting Hammerite and similar. As Hammerite is a different type of paint, you can’t clean the brushes with white spirit, and their own cleaner is expensive. I prefer to use cheap brushes and throw them away. You can get a pack of 6 brushes for £1 from the pound shop. Whilst there I saw a load of things that would be useful.

Here’s what I bought, everything was a pound each
