A WHSmith worker shared the most pointless thing in stock in the store and it had people in stitches.
Retail worker Oscar Manners joked that one of the notebooks on the shelves is absolutely usless.
In a short TikTok video he showed the redundant item.
He said: “We’re literally selling notebooks shaped like an ‘L’.
“What is the point? What is the point? I don’t get it, I don’t get it!”
He added the caption: “Someone took the L on this one.”


The video quickly got a lot of attention and has been viewed more than a million times by fellow TikTokers.
One person said: “WHSmith are probably charging £8.99 for that as well!”

Another joked: “The rest is sold as a mini notebook for £5.99.”
A third said: “Leftover end cuts from the little square notebooks.”
Another said: “This is why I continue to beg the question, how is WHSmith still in business?!”
To which Oscar replied: “Because the employees have swag.”
Another said: “L for laughable… I don’t know how WHSmith keep going over. This video has made my day!”
