This morning's find (very kindly held back for me by the manager of my favourite charity shop), which set me back the princely sum of £2. Black snakeskin Christian Louboutin shoes - genuine as far as I can ascertain, and needing a little attention to the heels, but wow, one of my best bargains this year, I reckon!

Hi - just be careful- your other photos are attached. You might want to remove them ( lovely as they are!)

Don't worry - most of them have appeared on my blog at one time or another, and if somebody's bored enough to want to spend their time looking through my holiday snaps, then they're most welcome to do so!!

Fab red cotton top from Karen Millen with silk arms £5.99. Wore it to sales meeting at work and colleague said "ooh I've got that one in black, it was £90 but faded like mad though". To which I said that I wasn't really that bothered as I didn't pay £90 for it ... She couldn't believe it when I said I'd picked it up from a charity shop.

It is hand wash only - and I have adhered to it! - there are lots of bargains in our charity shops which are usually hand wash only / dry clean only, think they are there because people can't be bothered with the upkeep of them. Thankfully once it is hand washed and dried it doesn't usually need much (if any :eek: ) ironing! There are also plenty of uncomfortable shoes (see below) ...

Also got some Kurt Geiger red wedges last year - they are canvas but in almost new condition. Can't walk in them at the moment, but am practising lots! They were only £2.99 so if they end up back in the shop it is not the end of the world.

I got a Laura Ashley stripy cable knit jumper for £3.50 today from a charity shop in Morningside, Edinburgh.

As an aside, I've never been to Morningside charity shops before but blimey they're expensive! Well-worn White Stuff dress, Penguin jumpers, Kurt Geiger shoes etc. for £20-30!! Who pays those prices for quite used second hand clothes?! And I thought Aberdeen charity shops could be expensive!

Just found this thread - my best recent find was a lovely Kipling handbag that's as new for £2 in a charity shop whilst on holiday in Norfolk.

Two pairs of Hotter shoes today, one in Oxfam for £4.99 and one in BHF for £5.99. Both hardly worn, and a perfect fit. Very pleased :T.

I bought a White Stuff grey velvet embroidered skirt today in the Sue Ryder shop. At £3.95 they weren't exactly giving it away but I think it was worth it.


When I've got time I like to browse through the racks. Amazing the absolute tat they think people will buy. Why would I pay more for a Primark t shirt from the CS than I can get one new!
