Having just used some poundland glue - the first 2 tubes didn't produce
any superglue. The third one did but once the tube pierced the plastic
nozzle and cap stuck themselves firmly together and wouldn't budge a few
hours later. Probably best to treat these tubes of glue as open, use
immediately and chuck the tube away.


After similar experiences with pound store superglue, I now use only Loctite
who offers a range of 4 or 5 different types.

Buy cheap, buy twice.


Not necessarily. The pound shop stuff is so cheap that i can afford tho
throw some away after one use. In the past I've purchased larger
bottles of well known branded superglue and a couple of years later when
wanting to use it again it has been solid in the bottle.
