Britney loves being thrifty

Britney loves being thriftyThe pop star promotes her new music in the British capitol city London and she has been having a blast.

She bought knick-knacks in bargain store chain Poundland.

'I actually went and got these matches that are this little [cue thumb and forefinger pinched together]. They're, like, the tiniest matches you've ever seen,' she gushed to Alan Carr on UK TV show Chatty Man.

'And when you use them you burn your finger... They're so cute because they're so tiny. They're really cool.'

Britney Spears confessed her new album was 'like therapy'. She ended her engagement to agent Jason Trawick in January. Writing the album helped her recover from the pain of their split.

'Yes definitely, [writing for the album] was like therapy,' she revealed. 'Most of the songs are about celebrating having a good time, but I went through a break-up with this record so some of the stuff that I went through is on the record.'
