More than 100 people queued up for the opening of Poundworld in Sutton High Street.

The shoppers waited outside to be in with a chance to get their hands on a free goody bag when Mayor of Sutton, Richard Clifton opened the outlet at 10am on Thursday, March 30.

Thirty jobs have been created with the opening of the store, located next to TK Maxx, in the Times Square Shopping Centre.

Dariusz Slabik, Poundworld area manager, said: “This morning’s opening was a great success, it was fantastic to welcome shoppers through our doors for the first time.

"We can’t wait to help local people save money on their weekly shopping bill over the coming weeks and months.”
