Went to the Church fete (well actually I was helping on the book stall) and got an old large saucepan (perfect for candle making) for 50p, dh found a brand new set of bose headphones for £2 and I found a "bag in a purse" for 50p i had been looking at these very ones in a local shop priced at £5 and couldn't justify the cost but now I can!:)

was last month but
a large glass computer desk and a brand new lexmark printer still sealed in the box from a good friends garage clearance....

Today we did a car boot sale and at the end there was a couple of boxes of stuff that people had left behind to chuck away :eek: so I had a look through and found a gorgeous Indian style glass candle holder with gold trim, it's lovely and can't believe it was going in the skip, there was tons of people just chucking stuff in

I had a free tea last night. beef Cannelloni which I found in a trolley outside Tesco. Someone had obviously left it behind. I can't believe they didn't see it. I wouldn't of paid for it, but wasn't bad for free.

zarazara

a rug, a large terracotta plant tub,a middle size one and a lovely saucer to stand a plant pot on,all out of a skip in the village [with permission from owner I hasten to add.]

I found a growbag that I hadn't used from a year or so ago and have spread it over a garden border to help it along. When I bring home the little tomato plant I have just bought (and left at work, whoops!) I'll put it down there as it is nice and sunny

:eek:On saturday one of the dogs ate a big whole in the middle of our mattress:mad: OH was telling one of his mates who delivers beds and collects the old ones for recycling and asked him to keep an eye out for a half decent mattress to tide us over. Said friend turned up today with not only a more than respectable mattress but the four drawer divan base to go with it :j all very clean only been used a few times as a guest bed, definitely a better day than saturday.
