Didn't buy anything today, saw a lovely Animal cross body bag for £3.50 but it was camouflage coloured, and I just don't think I'd have used/worn it with any of my outfits, so was good and left it for someone else.
Did donate a few items though.

I made my second lot of five bags today and dropped them in. They take about 10 minutes each, tops, and are no-sew. We think they're a great way to upcycle shirts which would otherwise be sold to the rag man
