I had a good day yesterday in our local hospice shop (I swear I keep that shop going single-handedly
).

Fantasie 'Lois' bra still with part of price tag on, in Debenhams at £29.00. £2.00
Slazenger long-line top in raspberry pink with white trim & the logo in shades of pink & white - perfect for my workout. £4.000 -
Spent a whole £2 in the chazza shops this week :eek:
50p for a Country Casuals jersey top in a mink colour.
50p on a scarf with a magnetic clasp that makes it into a loop wot you wind twice round your neck( ??!). In shades of raspberry pink and mink...looks good with the above.
£1 on a B/N, M & S swim suit with a proper bra doofer thingy, in purple and white fuzzy stripes.0 -
I did really well this week and got the following:
Portmeirion table mats and coasters, a small ice bucket, 3 cafetieres- two big and one small, golf balls, Poole pottery plates (4) and 2 side plates in vine pattern, salt and pepper set( Cole & Mason) + black shoes in Size 9 Kays, The best thing was a little wirework basket with 6 ?silver plate tomatoes with a tiny slit in each one to put place names at a dinner table. They are going to my friend for her birthday next month as I know she will love them.0 -

I was reading this thread yesterday and felt inspired. I'm currently loosing weight so don't really want to spend lots of money on things to wear for a short time.
I popped to the local charity shop today and came away with a monsoon blouse for £3 and a pair of navy M & S twill trousers for £3. I'm really chuffed especially as I used to work for Monsoon when the 75% staff discount was in place. I can't afford their stuff new now so it was a great find.
There is only one charity shop in the little town I live in so will go to the larger town next week for a bit more of a look. Not bad for someone who doesn't like shopping.1 debt v's 100 days chapter 34: T3sco bank CC £250/£525.24 47.59%

Oh no!
You do realise that you're teetering on the edge of a very slippery slope. :eek:

I got a pair of next trousers last week for £3.99 and a next top the week before for £3.50, both as new condition. I'm with you Parsniphead, initially I went in to find something for work while I get rid of my flubber, but I actually now don't want to buy things new.
. I don't think my CSs will have the great bargains found on here though, but I will keep looking.
