The online offering excludes chilled & frozen.[1] In January 2022, it was announced that Star Bargains would close in February and would be replaced with Poundland's new home delivery service. People were still able to place orders on starbargains.co.uk until 23 January 2022. The website closed on January 31, 2022 and was folded into the online operations of Poundland. The customer support team closed after 28 February.[2]
