He grieve £170,000-a-sevennight but Chelsea warrior Terry does his Christmas shopping at... Poundworld!

They say fame and fortune can change the modern footballer but that doesn't appear to be the case with John Terry.
The Champions League winner, and former England captain, has won most of what the game has to offer but still continues to shop at Poundworld.
Spotted in the Woking store by Chelsea fan Jack Jeffery, Terry's basket was said to be heavily stocked, despite him bringing home £170,000 a week!

The store later confirmed that the former England captain spent £21.
'My mate asked him if it was OK to have a picture,' Jeffery said. 'He was happy to let us.
'It was weird just walking in there and seeing him. He had a lot of stuff in his basket but I didn't really see what it was.
'When I told my friends they were shocked and wished they had met him as well. He’s probably one of my favourite players.'

And they said footballers were out of touch.
Given the many millions Chelsea have spent on Fernando Torres and Andrei Shevchenko in recent years, perhaps it's time Terry taught his paymasters how to shop for a bargain.
Chris Edwards Junior, trading director at Poundworld said: 'We were delighted to hear that the Chelsea star paid a visit to our shop in Woking.
'He obviously knows a good bargain when he sees one. Our store is close to the Chelsea training ground, so we hope Mr Terry has spread the word among his fellow team mates!'
