    Cost £18 but I bought the most gorgeous (and beautifully cut) blue M&S coat in a charity shop in Chichester yesterday.

    Picked up a blouse/top today for £2.59 then in Primark saw it on sale still at £5 reduced from £10 - so a nice little bargain there (also picked up a lovely pair of jeans on sale in Primark for a fiver, so all in all a very good clothes shopping trip)!

    Oh and I don't think I mentioned the other day from the SA sale rail, 2 pairs of summer trousers for 30p each - if they no longer fit by then I won't mind passing them back on unworn (by me). :)
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

    Brought a scarf at the red cross. To be honest, its more shawl then scarf (as its very wide and long), its a lace knit in a brown colour. I do a lot of knitting and could tell it was part mohair blend. After washing it in the machine (hand wash cycle in a pillow case) I'm certain its also wool blend. Its very warm and only cost £3.45!

    Our local Animal Rescue were having a half price day so I got a toffee hammer, casserole dish, handmade baby bootees for my little granddaughter, baby hat, man`s rainjacket( Puma) and two lovely old blue plates. The plates were marked at £7.50 last week and I managed to walk away but half price is worth buying them for! Also a craft book and book on removing stains- always useful!

    I love the fact that I never know what I`m going to pick up! My daughter in law wont have anything from a CS so she thinks the boottees were from a craft fair! Maybe my name needs to be Pinocchio!
