  • i think even if its a topshop voucher, with just topshop on it, you can still spend it anywhere in arcadia. pretty sure i've done that before

    yeah - i just checked a topshop giftcard i have and on the back it says it can be used anywhere in arcadia. topshop, burton, dorothy perkins, evans, miss selfridge, outfit, topman and wallis

  • I confess that when I first bought my house it took me a while to get used to not shopping as much as I did at home, and I went through a bit of a bag phase - I bought a gorgeous Chloe one, but you can't have just one, so I also had a Prada one & a D&G one...
    When I'd maxxed out my credit card I panicked, and said to myself 'self you are broke put those bags on eBay and sort yourself out' but I couldn't bear to part with them, so I rang the mortgage company and said I had a massive credit card bill from paying for home improvements on it and could I add it to my mortgage!!!
