    I pleased with my two charity shop buys I got this morning in Boscombe. A grey Per Una cardigan for £5.99 from the Salvation Army and a pair of Per Una Roma jeans for £4.50 from Naomi House. Both look brand new. :j

    Not sure about the picture but if I'd been in the same shop at the same time as you, I'd have fought you over the cat. :rotfl:

    Local Knitwear designer cardigan- they sell for £50 and upward, getting closer to £100 up here and I got a vintage pretty much un-worn one for £5 in the charity shop last week. Also got DS some stuff today (cars, jigsaw, books). Also got a woolen/lined walking jacket thing for £2 a couple of months ago, looked online and same style but in slightly different shade sells for over £150!!! The thing is mine is green and I love green! I <3 charity shops!

    Not an item of clothing or a book (for a change) but a lovely spotty cat bed.

    Cost £3.99.

    The cat will love it.
