yes its on i-player.
I was laughing this morning. I admired a fellow mum and neighbours bag at school this morning she smiled and said 75p table top. I replied mine too a £1(saw my bag last week at a designer outlet for £19.99 in the sale so was rather more chuffed with it that i had already been as its so lovely).
It was just one of those moments where you can admire someone elses bargain skills.
Bargain on everyone
THANKS!!!
I watched the mary queen of charity shops programme which I missed then spent all afternoon watching old episodes of Doctor Who with my daughter.I have heard about iplayer but didnt know what it was,didnt know you could just watch all this online for free.:D"Reaching out to touch the stars dont forget the flowers at your feet".0 -

Hi Snowbrow. Went to Leamington Spa last week. Quite a few chazza shops although some very overpriced (Zara dress £65 and Zara kaftan top £35). Thought the Save The Children shop was particularly good.0 -
boooooooooooooooooooo weather here is rubbish and does not look like changing anytime soon. The best monthly one is on tomorrow too so I am really annoying, plus I missed out last weekend as I way away and next week I am going on holiday so that will be 4 weeks missed by the time I get back. UNFAIR!
I will check out the charity shops too as we need books for beachtime readingNot been here in years! Hi everyone. Make £10 a day challenge = £78.45/1550 -

Lucky you! the rain hasn't let up here since 5pm last night.
Our local pub's running a car boot sale to generate business next saturday and the pitches are free! I'm using the carppy weather as a reason to stay indoors and have a massive clearout for saleable items.0
