A £1.99 shirt that I turned into a cushion cover with added floral embellishments....and had some left over to stick on something else.

I'm off to a workshop tomorrow to learn how to make one of those!

This weeks bargain has to be the burgundy Boden silk and cotton cardi for only 50p :j:j:j in my size as well!

Been really lucky in the shops after a very long dry spell. Picked up a fabulous winter coat by Jaeger, wool and camel hair, the perfect length and style, for €12! I'd gone round a few shops in the city that day, and picked up things for twice the price that I was 'meh' about, so when I least expected it, this beauty came along!

Got some Levi jeans for €4, that I might cut into shorts, and a modern Jaeger dusky pink blouse made from linen and silk, for €3!

Hi all

Popped into my local charity shops again today and as usual picked up some great bargains.
*Vintage tea dress £2.99
*Next heart print peplum top £3.50
*New Look leopard print bow t-shirt £1.75
*New Look floral top (last year's was going to buy last summer but I was pregnant) £2.99
*Dotty P's swan print peplum top £3.00
*White Stuff kaftan, which will double up as a summer dress too £1.99

Also saw an Adidas coat for my DS for 29p but it was 0-3 months and although it would just fit think he'd only wear it once so left it for another mum. Off to the carboot tomorrow if the weather stays dry.

Hi everyone, enjoying all your CS bargains.

My best CS bargain of this last week was a baby bath seat, which normally seem to cost between £10 and £20, for 30p! It is in fabulous condition so we are delighted

Today I picked up an EasiYo yoghurt maker in the local CS for £3. Probably won't buy the sachets to use with it, but it seems like a fuss free way of making yoghurt from scratch. Last week, in the same charity shop, I got 2 Laura Ashley red gingham chair pads for £1 each, look in perfect, as new condition. Really pleased with my bargains! These were both from my favourite charity shop, which is a little bit out of town, and much more sensibly priced than some others.

:rotfl: That's what I thought too! I never think of really clever names!

I got an amazing bargain today! A pair of Bally shoes (black patent with gold trim and gold heel) for £12.99 from Oxfam in Ilkley. I know £12,99 doesn't sound that cheap but they are brand new and would have cost over £300!!! I can't stop admiring them and can't wait for the right occasion to wear them! And I really did need some new shoes honest!

I got a thing for holding paper when you are typing or holding a book open for £1.50 today. That might sound a bit naff but I was really pleased as I know I will use it loads.

I've sent loads to the cs over the last couple of days - I am trying to have a big clearout - so I am trying to be good and not fill the space up with other stuff.

Due to a change in circumstances I'm going to be donating a lot over the next few weeks (or more) and on a buying ban.
