    Had a quick look round the new shop where Lakeland was. Didn't have time to buy as was supposed to be working. Looks really nice, upstairs book shop reminded me of waterstones and cafe prices reasonable.

    Now all I need to do is find a spare hour or two :j:j

    I also had a look round the same charity shop today - didn't go upstairs though and, sadly, didn't find anything to buy.
    It's a St. Richard's Hospice shop, they've closed the Snowdrops book shop in Reindeer Court but kept their other (smaller) shop in Mealcheapen Street.
    Must say I found the prices a tad expensive, especially compared to the Scope shop a couple of doors away.
    Normal people worry me.

    Ted Baker top for £3 :eek: :D:D

    I saw some Jaeger jeans for £3.50, pointed out that they were swanky and should be more but they already knew and didn't change the price.

    I also saw some vintage sunglasses for far too little; looked them up and saw they were valuable. Sold them on the shop's behalf for over £100 on a well-known auction site. :A
    They call me Dr Worm... I'm interested in things; I'm not a real doctor but I am a real worm. :grin:

    I've been scouring my local charity shops for weeks and have found nothing. However, on Friday, I found a lovely Boden dress which looks as good as new. It will be perfect for a couple of family occasions we have this month and was only £6. Well worth the wait :).

    We're off to Shropshire on holiday - can't wait. Does anybody know any good charity shops in the Bridgnorth, Much Wenlock, Shrewsbury area?! I don't think the charity shop bug ever goes on holiday! My family won't be very impressed when I try and sneak off in to a charity shop but I know I won't be able to walk past!

    Whenever I'm going to a new area, I search for 'charity shops' on yell.com.

    You can also find out where they are in relation to each other by checking the map on yell.com.

    I haven't had a charity shop bargain for months. :(
