Glues & Tapes

Glues and Tapes

Whilst you may be thinking that the days of cutting and sticking are behind you, there’s always going to be a time where you need a glue stick or some sticky tape. Whether you’re working on a school project with your little one or wrapping presents, glues and tapes are an absolute essential.

Did you know the glue stick was invented in 1969 after a smart German engineer was inspired by the easy application of lipstick in a tube?

There are many types of glue, each one with its own useful qualities. Craft glue is perfect for arts and crafts and for sticking together paper and cardboard.

Need something a little stronger? Then super glue is for you. This super sticky adhesive can come in handy when you need to fix broken items in your home. Remember that broken lamp? Fix it in a flash with some super sticky glue from Poundstretcher.

Tape should be the one stationery essential that every household has in their desk drawers. This sticky-surfaced product can come in handy for a variety of reasons. For example, present wrapping is the most obvious use of sticky tape.

However, tape can come in handy in many more ways that we bet you didn’t even know! For example, tape can:

• Be used to remove hairs from clothing
• Repair the frayed end of shoelaces
• Pick up small pieces of glass
• Protect labels from smudging

With so many uses for tape, it makes sense to have some lying around the house.

Pop down to your local Poundstretcher store today and stick some glue and tape into your basket.
