In order to keep prices at £1, pound stores have arrangements with some suppliers to produce products in smaller sizes. Poundland, for example, sells Toblerones which have one triangle fewer than elsewhere, and Warburton loaves of bread in Poundland are 600g rather than the 800g standard - to keep the product at £1.
