    we have an ice-cream maker bought full price (Le Glacier?) anyway it hardly gets used due to the high price of proper quality ingredients, so yours sounds an absolute bargain!!

    I have a Panasonic Inverter Combi oven which came with a glass tray which is in dire need of a major clean with an over cleaner. I have often thought I would like a spare so that one is always clean and also in case of breakage. In my local BHF I saw a brand new one at 2.99 and bought it although I wasn't sure whether it was much of a bargain as I had never seen one advertised. On my return home I googled it and to my amazement found a replacement would be 33.85. I can now be careless with the dirty one!
    I got the same Panasonic Combi Inverter from Jumble sale £26 never been used but a old model.I already have one but the oven part of it doesnt get hot enough.New one is great and a bargain.

    I went on a rare trip to Evesham yesterday and someone had given the Salvation Army shop probably a dozen pairs of boys' trousers! I had 2 Next pairs for my smaller son and a Next pair and a Tesco pair for my bigger son. :-)


    Also found a MASSIVE St Richard's hospice shop where I bought 2 T shirts for me - one long sleeved, Next and one short sleeved from George.

    Ooooh I was in Evesham on Sunday. Only for a quick walk around in way home and most things shut. Saw a st Richards shop in a sort of square near the abbey. Is there another one as that wasn't very big

    Thanks

    I got a lovely Denby jug in a lovely blue range that has been discontinued, but my mum has the plates etc, and is only used for special occasions. Its big enough to be used as a gravy jug, and was £10 so not very mse but she will love it and she helps me out a lot! I also got 4 Top gear annuals for my ds which are a few years out of date but he will be tickled with them, for ten pence each! Good haul today!
