Just want to take a moment to appreciate how they're birthday candles that explicitly tell you not to blow them out, thus failing in the one thing you'd expect birthday candles to do
Tigerstripes175 gotta cover it so no oxygen can get it for instance yankee candles have lids on so you put the lid on so it has no oxygen therefore it going out
The bog roll texture looks like cheap kitchen roll. Well if I struggle with Christmas presents, it'll be worth it for a laugh...literally 1 laugh followed by "Seriously though, where is my actual present?" and then Christmas day will be ruined.
And that's when you do something faux-clever like partially unrolling it, gluing a banknote to a random sheet in the middle, then rolling it up again. Then you'll find out whether they actually bother using their gag gift. Or if they look at the roll before wiping.
The long barcode is to make checking out faster because it makes it more likely that the clerk will certainly scan it in the first go. ALDI was a big proponent of this, and putting barcodes on every side of the box, because they like their German efficiency.
I hope you made a special birthday cake candle arrangement for "Earl Milk Parity", "Ark Player Limit", "Lamprey Lair Kit", "Maple Rarity Ilk" or his brother "Pyrite Alarm Ilk", "Teak Rail Primly", "Italy Lip Marker", "Lit Kale Primary", "Pirate Army Kill", "Limp Trailer Yak", "Kilt Parry Email", "Ma Kip Artillery", "Limy Ratlike Rap", "Kip Millet Array", "I Likely Rampart", "Yip Miller Karat", "Lily Miter Parka", "Triply Lei Karma", "Perky Mill Tiara", "Aria Limply Trek", "Maria Krill Type", "Miry Partial Elk", "Pry Like Marital", "Karate Pill Miry", or the hit video game "Imperially Kart".
Vietnam has a specialty bag of chips literally called “pollution flavored chips” which are designed to taste like smog. I watched someone review them years ago alongside hokkaido cheese chocolate. Barely got through the video without vom-bombing my phone.
Because of your videos, when I went to the U.K I had to find a poundland and poundworld to go to. Ironically I went to a shopping mall and they were literally right next to each other. I must say though, comparable to a U.S dollar tree or dollar general, poundland/poundworld actually has a pretty good selection of name brand stuff, I was actually surprised.
How would Patrick even work with just 5 candles? As for Liam into Liar i suspect no foul play - the packaging is no doubt the same for 4 and 5 candle packs and so its empty for that reason. I dont think the average poundland customer is that clever to change it.
Never in my life have a seen something so amazing as the Poundland Bog Roll. I wish American dollar stores would get on board with this idea, although you would pay at least $2 for one roll because, America.
One of my favourite Christmas decorations is a bunting-style banner from a pound shop that wishes me a "Merry Shrictmas"...I took it back and swapped it for another set which turned out to be exactly the same. It makes me laugh every year.
I've been to Poundland last Saturday! I bought a lot of chocolate! My life is complete! Also, I can get 16 rolls of premium double ply bog roll for four pounds over here where I live.
Those birthday candles might be the funniest fucking thing I've ever seen, I absolutely lost it at "LIAR" My name's Percy, so I can only assume my Poundland candle variant would be... Pervy.
Ahh good lord, did anyone else get that "Nails on a Chalkboard" feeling when Ashens started handling the bog roll at the beginning? Something about the texture of the paper and the noises it was making made me shiver and get goosebumps and i had to turn off the video!
"Liam" is a four-letter name, so the extra hole is not needed and was probably mass manufactured that way for five-letter names. I doubt someone changed the candles
1:05 - Ah, THAT's what a bog roll is! ;-) Amazing value if you like sandpaper for your arse. Amazing that every sheet contains free advertising, I wonder if the ink comes off during use? Do not move a burning candle? Well, that kills it in the US. We tend to light the candles in another room and carry the whole dangerous-for-idiots contraption into the room where the birthday person is supposed to be surprised. I laughed so hard at "The Man With Really Wide Trousers - Maybe He's MC Hammer" bit! HILARIOUS! Another chuckle at the MacArthur Park bit. :-D
Just want to take a moment to appreciate how they're birthday candles that explicitly tell you not to blow them out, thus failing in the one thing you'd expect birthday candles to do
Also it said to put them in a glass container. So you can't blow them out or put them on a cake.

It's a comedy sketch from _Saturday Night Live_ (a US television show). That website has the best copy I was able to find.
I'm not as excited as I once was
I never actually noticed that. That is hilarious!
poundland employee here, all my coworkers watch and giggle at your videos bc it’s all the things we want to say but can’t lmaooo
Birthday candles you are told NOT to blow out. What a horrible time we live in.
FV4030 Budget cuts are bad these days.
Tigerstripes175 gotta cover it so no oxygen can get it for instance yankee candles have lids on so you put the lid on so it has no oxygen therefore it going out
Princess Karma ok but that still necessitates having a bell jar or something to shove into a cake until they go out
Melancholy Werewolf okay fair point ahah was just saying how youre meant to properly extinguish candles
@Tigerstripes175 **you're*

Sad twat
That poundland bog roll looks like it’s made from newsprint.
That brilliant ink is surely made of some cheap toxic crap that will probably give you butt cancer.
0/10 would rather use my sock.
As someone that delivers newspapers for a "living," I can wholeheartedly say newsprint is far softer, and likely more absorbent.
At least it's not glossy stiff magazine paper... The pain.
Recycling at it's finest...
Looks like the absolutely horrible pulpy McDonald's tissue paper

Party Candles For Emilk was the less-successful followup to Flowers For Algernon, I think.

Shouldn't Algernon have a library book? After all, he was so fond of getting them in Bully. God I hated those missions.

exactly, poundland clearly know about ashens
A Lego Man
I guarantee everyone who works in Poundland corporate, marketing etc. And probably even the retail workers know of Ashens
Ashens is practically free promotion, so this is their gift to him ha!
3:00 It’s a simple typo on Poundland’s part, they’re actually Patrick candles for ‘Party’.
stratojim473 Wut
VideoSimple Poundland is a wondrous place where up is down and candles shouldn’t be blown out!
If only i knew about them when i wanted to celebrate Saint Patric's day with my friend Party.
stratojim473 that does make more sense honestly
I personally think they were being literal with this one. As in they are 'party' candles, and you're supposed to give them to anyone named Patrick.
The bog roll texture looks like cheap kitchen roll. Well if I struggle with Christmas presents, it'll be worth it for a laugh...literally 1 laugh followed by "Seriously though, where is my actual present?" and then Christmas day will be ruined.
I suspect that the print will wipe off onto your bum when used.

the bright side of it: it was *_YOU_* who intentionally ruined the xmas day... unlike how it usually ruins itself on its own
The roll would be an appropriate birthday present for your enemies. Newspaper is better. Maybe you can wipe your arse with tabloids.
1 £ for a toiletpaper roll. What a bargain for early 2020.

Pause at 2:13 - you can see that the perforations don't match the paper design.
This, for some reason, angers me to no end.
Bulliwyf I noticed that too….
Bulliwyf I'd say that you're nitpicking, but now that you mention it...
Hmph. Yeah, that pisses me out.
I bought some earlier and it is the most annoying thing having the perforations not match up (I did buy it for a joke).
Bulliwyf WHY DID YOU HAVE TO POINT THIS OUT?!
i shudder at the thought of how the toilet roll feels.
That thing practically says irritated ringpiece.

I’m assuming you have a program that generates anagrams?
I’m assuming you spent 15 minutes after the video finished sitting there typing nonsense
My best friend loves anagrams too
Limp trailer Yak sounds like a great name for a band
Most underrated comment ever
Little did he know 2 years later we would be running around the shops wanting bog roll so much
The candles segment made me laugh out loud. They're just so well done, those candles.
POUNDLAND SPECIAL TIME AGAIN! The best words in the English language!
First time watching you for like 2 years and I couldn't stop laughing at Emilk
I'm making my first born child Emilk thanks to this vid
Will you name your second child Party?
Naming your child Emilk is like asking for your child to get bullied
It’s always a good time with party
That's child abuse. I'm calling the cops.
Or Liar...
"EMILK" is the funniest thing I've seen all week.

Aww, happy birthday, Liar! May your special day be filled with secrecy and deceit! lmao Seriously lost it when he pulled out that box of candles.
I love poundland specials. glad we got another one.
I love Stuart Ashens! Loved the party candles! I love being silly like that!
Ashen's videos are like crisps .... you can't stop after one.... (unless they're Poundland cheap shit)
Then you stop after after one due to severe food poisoning.
Or Snackrite
I quite enjoy shit quality crisps
If it's Poundland vids you can't stop twice as hard

The "Party Candles for Patrick" segment is hilarious! XD
The second police figure immediately brought to mind a sad emo clown. Or an ironically dressed juggalo.
Baneus The all-black figure looks like a Klingon from the new Star Trek series.
yes. the best way to spend a sick day is watching these.
I’d use the bog roll now, I guess that’s why RUclips recommended an older Ashens video to me
Don't get vaccinated
Oh god....! Just by the sound of that bog roll.... Sounds like it would feel like sandpaper.
YYYYYEEESSSS!!
You know it's a good day when Ashens uploads a Poundland Special!
I got in touch with my inner self. I'm never using cheap toilet paper again...
Reminded of that when I saw the Poundland bog roll... 🤣
Because of your videos, when I went to the U.K I had to find a poundland and poundworld to go to. Ironically I went to a shopping mall and they were literally right next to each other. I must say though, comparable to a U.S dollar tree or dollar general, poundland/poundworld actually has a pretty good selection of name brand stuff, I was actually surprised.
All these years I've been with Ashens and it's just now that I realized Funtastic is just a play on "Fantastic".
£1 for a single roll? Absolute rip off -.-
Declan Gallagher Its not like you wipe your arse with this stuff everyday?
It's a joke, they actually sell their own brand, it is good
You can get 8 rolls for about 2 pounds after the conversion from euros (I'm from ireland)
I think you're just supposed to politely smile at the intended pun :)
It's a shit deal, right down the toilet. I wouldn't even wipe my ass with this deal, not to mention how paper thin this whole charade is.
love ya ashens your a great jolly old chap and you make quality videos always a refreshing
How would Patrick even work with just 5 candles?
As for Liam into Liar i suspect no foul play - the packaging is no doubt the same for 4 and 5 candle packs and so its empty for that reason. I dont think the average poundland customer is that clever to change it.
Can anyone tell me if they have my name? I want to see how much they've botched it up. I can't see for myself. Don't have the money to fly to the UK.
callum mclachlan Please just fly over here.
Unless that customer is Noel Gallagher
There's clearly a disgruntled candle factory worker trying to send a hidden message to his overseer, Emily Patrick
My name is Arty, so I could get some use out of those candles
Arty Ivanenko and you could extinguish them using your own P.
Artyom? Nice name
Never in my life have a seen something so amazing as the Poundland Bog Roll. I wish American dollar stores would get on board with this idea, although you would pay at least $2 for one roll because, America.
I burst out laughing the second I saw EMILK and again with LIAR.
One of my favourite Christmas decorations is a bunting-style banner from a pound shop that wishes me a "Merry Shrictmas"...I took it back and swapped it for another set which turned out to be exactly the same. It makes me laugh every year.

Hell yes bog roll this going to be a Present for Christmas the joys
Going into town tomorrow. Definitely gonna be having a look for that bog roll, it'd look fantastic in my bathroom.
I really want a Liam/Liar set now.

I think that bog roll would be really good for TPing houses during Halloween.
i miss the specials so i have to rewatch them in 2024
Aaah yes, this video aged like fine wine.
The youtube algorythm knows what's up.
when he said "ohhh shiiiiiit" it had me laughing my ass off lol
How Dare Poundland call Me a Liar.
I wont be buying anything from them anymore then.
Liam Piper so you will be buying things from then again as your a liar
Casualgamers yes that true because even insults through candles aren't enough to stop me going. :D
Liam's an adorable name.
Ahh good lord, did anyone else get that "Nails on a Chalkboard" feeling when Ashens started handling the bog roll at the beginning? Something about the texture of the paper and the noises it was making made me shiver and get goosebumps and i had to turn off the video!
How spooky - I was literally just wondering when you'd be making another of these.
I want to go around every toilet at work and replace every single roll I find with this stuff, That's going to be a smelly funny day for sure.
"Liam" is a four-letter name, so the extra hole is not needed and was probably mass manufactured that way for five-letter names. I doubt someone changed the candles
EliteXtasy there were probably 2 sticks on the M that’s what the extra hole was for.
Look at Emilk, m has 1 stick
Why would anyone pre-punch the hole in polystyrene?! It's hardly difficult.
The best try not to laugh is ashens. Period.
Omg poundland bog roll, I know what gag gift im adding to the list of for my brother

Yes this is a joke product; Poundland already has its own toilet tissue called Quantum, of all things. It's 4 ply, quilted and not bad actually. :P
JCBeastie I wish I could buy that, but I live in Canada. I wonder if Dollarama has decent quality toilet paper...
JCBeastie ooh, I'll take note of that. Guessing not many rolls in a pack though.
It's for really tiny shits
4 for a pound or 9 for 2 pounds... They're not paying to me say this. :|
JCBeastie might seriously see if the ones near me have it in (yes, multiple poundlands). Thanks
I love Stuart's reaction to the 3rd set of candles, Party Candles for Liam, Liar! xD
it did look like someone was screwing around with them
"Bog Roll Police" sounds like current events in 2020.
