local charity shops...

COOLTRIKERCHICK

i am looking for charity shops.. that are for local charities..
which look like nothing is thrown out. and put out for sale...even if it looks battered and broken....

i find the main stream ones.. are trying to compete with high street stores.. so they look as though they are a proper shop.....

i like the charity shops..that you got to rumage through...and look like...like charity shops used to be like..

i also find these shops dont have telephones... so are not listed in the phone book.....i also find that these types of charity shops.. dont over charge either...

so if you have a charity shop like this near you..could you let me know.....plus i should imagine other people would be interested as well....
there was one in treherbert (i think). that i used to go to every week as i was in the area....but that has closed now i think it was for the local church....

I live in a maisonette, and underneath us is, yup, you guessed it, a 'proper' old fashioned charity shop! its for the local catholic school (im in swansea btw, and the charity shop is at the top of high st! damm, ive just realised ive given you my address too!) Everything in there is a pound, except for the outside rail where everything is 50p.. its fantastic, and if you go there, be sure to knock on my door, theres always a brew going in my house!

WOW.....what a great charity shop.....2 lovely older ladies.. very friendly... and helpfull.....had a good old rumage around the clothes....had some brill bargins......spent £11.00 and well happy...so will be going back every tuesday.. as that's when these girls's are working...

also went to some charity shops in the uplands....didnt like their attitude there... and were a bit on the pricey side...

so thanks vik.... for that one....maybe we should do the charity hunt....are score them out of ten.. for price..... etc...
