There's an excellent shop in West Norwood that does a good selection of those boxes. It's just up on the west side of the road more or less opposite Beamish and McGlue (I think). Can't really miss it - it's the one with shit loads of plastic boxes outside.
That red coloured pound shop on the crossing outside Brixton tube used to do quite a few too.. although whenever I've been there recently it seems to have been shut... :confused:
the one in norwood i was thinking of is sort of opposite the firestation. i dont know where beamish and mcglue is :confused:
yeah brixtons pound shops seem to have suffered a bit recently. right off to norwood it is then :)

I think we're thinking of the same place in Norwood. Beamish and McGlue is not a million miles from the firestation.. it's the pale blue deli whose owners ran the cafe in the lido this summer. :)
There's a shop on Streatham High Street with loads of plastic boxes outside it I think......

that pound shop opposite the tube (the one that gaijingirl mentioned above)
i gave up on brixton cos that one was never open and the others dont do any. went to norwood (it is opp mcglue etc) and got two huge boxes for 6 quid each and then pissed everyone off by bringing them back on the bus :D
