Hi everyone, I've kept on reading the thread but just not had anything to report lol.
I got a beautiful gray Wallis jumper from the carboot last week for a quid, and also some brand new New Look light brown boots for a quid as well!
(sorry, pound sign not working!)

YOu all seem to have some very cheap chazzers near you - I often get bargains from car boots but the charity shops round here aren;t cheap enough to alllow a profit margin for me. I bought a Suzy Smith bag today for a fiver, but having checked Ebay now it seems I might be lucky to even get my money back on it.No, Mr A, that is NOT 'Great news'!!
Wombling totals: Oct = £243.32 - £93.32 over target!
Nov Wombling Tally: £27.36 so far... behind target0 -

Some are, like our lovely Salvation Army shop where nothing is over £1.75. The Scope shop is absolutely ridiculous lately - at the moment they've got some TopShop wrap dresses (at least 2 years old) for £12!!!!0 -

The ones in my town are usually quite expensive but todays bargains were mainly from a shop which is selling all its clothing & bags at £1 an item for one week only because they have to clear the shop the get a massive amount of roof repairs and refurb done.The ticketed price for the stuff I bought in that shop for a total of £10 was actually much more,£57, before the sale.
The £1.99 bags were from a PDSA shop who do always have some at that price.I find them to be the cheapest for bags.Not sure if all the PDSA shops have a similar pricing structure or if its down to the manager to decide."Reaching out to touch the stars dont forget the flowers at your feet".0 -
