It was the colour that attracted me so that would be fantastic if you do find itThe pashmina looks quite creased and thin....I think I have one in that colour that I don't use...I'll have a look and see if I can find it tomorrow - you're welcome to it if I can find it.

scaredy, you're like my sister - she's adamant she's not having kids, she hates babies, looks at me like I'm insane when I mention being broody. but put a puppy in her arms and she turns to goo!
Oooh, I didn't know Oxfam had an online shop! the zip up coin bit could be at the back, but if it is it can't be very big.Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0 -
Ames - free postage from Oxfam online (they encourage donations).
I got my winter coat from there two years ago - I had to pay a dressmaker to take it in but it was still good value for a good condition wool coat.Debt at highest: £8k. Debt Free 31/12/2009. Original MFD May 2036, MF Dec 2018.0 -

Katsu - I'd avoid the pashmina tbh and the coin bit is probably a tight little section on the back that is nigh on impossible to get coins out of without scratching fingers or dropping coins everywhere....26.2.19/14.1.19: T MC 3629.26/3629.26 : VM 0% 1050/13876.59 : W 0% 100/1485 = 4409.26/18990.85 =25.17%28.1.19/28.1.19 Hubs 0% £400/£2,977 =13.44%SPC 2019 #073

Hmm, the oxfam site looks as silly priced as their rl shops - £5 for a second hand primark jumper! there's some nice stuff at reasonable prices though.Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.0

I'm gladit's not just me Ames that finds Oxfam expensive.My mum hates me some Saturdays, as I go in her charity shop and say mum "I can buy that brand new in Primark" or "You're having a laugh".Claire - she's keeping an eye out for wool.0
