Welcome back Goanmad ........ I trust you had a fab time? Boot season down here doesn't start until Easter, so I'll just have to bide my time until then and keep scouring the charity shops.

Boot season here starts March and can't come soon enough

We have two boot sales here open year round, and they're decent too, but the snow and now rain (and therefore) mud means I haven't been to one since November!!!

I'm eager to go to one but the weather just isn't permitting! :-(

Thought it was a bit quiet, but just realised had posted this on old thread! Is it possible to have it closed?

Took a friend who is in desperate need of new office type clothes on a charity shopping spree yesterday. She got:
Unworn dark denim skirt, Earl Jeans £2.99
Oasis black short sleeved shirt, with ruching £3.99
And a body con style French Connection strappy dress, an ASOS stripy short sleeved shirt, a Topshop black shift dress, and a dorothy perkins white tshirt, all for £5.

I bought a See by Chloe black military style jacket for £4. Sadly a little small for me, so might have to set it free on ebay!

I bought a Hugo Boss cerise jumper in a CS the other day, ticket price was £4 (over budget really since I'm going to cut it up and make something out of it but it was beautiful virgin wool) but when I got to the till the lady was outraged as 'jumpers are 3.25, ooh I wonder who priced that up, sorry about that love, I'll only charge you £3.25'. I didn't object!
