    Hi all :)

    Visited the shops in my Nans local town today whilst doing her shopping and can never resist a peek in the charity shops.

    Bought:

    *River Island Snowflake Print Shrug £4.95 (bit more than i'd normally spend, but it looks brand new and very this season).
    *New Look Burgundy Sheer Polka Dot Blouse £3.95. I've been after this blouse since originally seeing it full price instore, but i missed out on my size. I've been eyeing it up again on ebay recently, but they always seem to go for silly prices. Love it when i see something in a charity shop i'd been eyeing up full price ;)

    Suze :)

    I recently bought a lovely pair of silver ombr! wine glasses from Chest Heart and Stroke Scotland for £3.

    Not CS but I recently bought some stuff for Xmas presents from "everything£5" . Com and I have to say I'm really impressed! The cardigans are really cosy, the wool tunic tops are really pretty and the patterns are similar to the kind of thing you get in White Stuff for over £25!

    I got 2 owl print wool blend tunics, a leaf print wool blend tunic, 2 long jacket-style cardigans with ruffled collars and a shrug-style cardigan for less than £39 inc. next day delivery.

Started with a couple of t shirts at 50p each, then found a great M & S Per Una knee length black evening dress for £3. Then found a brand new BHS coat in black for £6 which I am really thrilled with and then finally found an M & S brown tweedy/wool skirt for £1.50.

    I took a ride to Otley yesterday, I had not realised how many chazza shops there was there, there must be at least 10. I managed to get my mum 3 pairs of M&S trousers one was per una & a F&F pair for 50p a pair in the St Gemma's hospice shop, the ladies trousers were on special offer. Think they also had a few 99p rails.

    Got a couple more bits in the Cancer Research shop t'other day but I noticed a lot of their stuff was quite high priced, it is in a nice area so they do get quite a bit of nice stuff but the 'ordinary' labels were high priced as well...
    This time I got a black long sleeved M&S t-shirt for £2 (I have a load of these from Primark that I pay about 2.50 for brand new but the quality is awful and they bag quickly, I'm hoping this one lasts a bit longer!!) and a lovely long, heavy sleeveless grey jumper originally from Bay Trading for 3.75.
    Theres a Shelter shop on the same street recently opened and they seem to get a LOT of new ex-shop stock, they have an absolutely beautiful display of coloured suede boots that I admire every time I go in but they're too frivolous for me to justify :( however last time I was in they were doing half price on all their toiletries (all brand new sealed ex-shop stock) and I got some nice body sprays that my friend likes (and cost about £3 in Boots!) and a Morgan hand and body lotion in a lovely box for a couple of quid which was a perfect Christmas pressie.

    I picked up a Love Label black A-line dress with chiffon sleeves for £4 the other day (ideal for my Christmas do!), also found a Brora wool skirt, Jigsaw tweed skirt and a cute Next needlecord short skirt all for £3 each. I also found a beautiful throw for over my spare bed and a fine lacy mohair scarf that will also be a bed-throw for £1 each - all in one of the hospice shops in Warrington.
