    I got Jigsaw striped top in two shades of grey for £2.50. Delighted with it as I have one in navy that I bought two years ago at full price of £60:eek:

    The CS obviously didn't know how much those L'Occitane products go for! Bargain! :)

    Today's CS buy was a lifesaver! The zip had jammed halfway up on my trousers this morning at work, luckily I was wearing a long top but the trousers were held precariously in place by a button and weren't very comfortable. So at lunchtime I headed for the pound shop to get safety pins... but diverted into the CS on the way and got a brand new pair of F& F trousers my size and the right colour. And they had a sale, so they were £1.25!

    I'm sure they know about L'Occitane but in this CS manager has a rule-if they can't confirm the item is authentic it goes into 50p basket-I found some Clinique,Clarins and Lancôme products before.

    One black leather Chloe Paddington bag spotted in CS window, mine for £10. It's going to last me for years! I think they cost hundreds new! :D

    I wish our local shops had bargains like that, I love all those brands! Things I've found are usually priced up at £4-£5.
