While some found their bunting was missing letters entirely, others discovered theirs had the wrong ones or even double the amount.

Tweeting a snap of her blue banner, which read "HAPPY BIBTHDAY", one moaned: “@Poundland great 'happy bibthday' banner we bought from one of your stores for my nephew's 1st birthday!”

Another shopper, who found theirs read "HAPP BIRTHDDAY" simply said: "@poundland sort your banners out mate.”

Alongside crying with laughter emojis, one said: "@poundland Happdy Irthday banner fail.”

And another shopper even joked: “That moment when you realise exactly why that birthday banner from @poundland was such a bargain.”

Hers read "HAPPY BIRTHAY".

The banners, which should read "Happy Birthday", come in either pink or blue and cost just £1.
