What is your charity shop bargain of the week?

Miró

Not much to report lately.....just a couple of tops from the hospice sale. One is silver grey jersey, sleeveless and with a softly drapey round the neck effect for £1 and an M & S cotton lawn smocky-type top in a navy and apple green pattern for £1.50. They have had a beeootiful Hobbs summer dress on the posh rail for the last couple of weeks which I would love to buy, (at £9 but it would retail for over £100+). It is my size but is just too blooming' short for me....I like to keep my knees covered these days! I'm not exactly a giantess but I find it very hard to find dresses and skirts long enough now. Couldn't even lengthen it by letting the hem down as it is only about an inch wide.

*Sigh*

2 puzzles in the same box for 50p, really confused me when the box said 50 pieces and there was 75 in there! I had to make them up to check-Peppa Pig ones at that.
A food bingo game for 99p and another puzzle game for 49p. They're for the kiddies at my friends school in the Seychelles, craft and game stuff is hard to get over there.
Plus a short summer type dress for 99p for my friend, too short for me but my friend is very short! X

As am I, as we're going to be delivering the jigsaws, games and any further cheap clothes I can find to my friend IN THE SEYCHELLES! Can't wait! X

Husband bought a small sideboard in a charity shop & is disassembling it for the quarter sawn oak. Glorious rippled grain wood - more than worth £25 as it's not easy to locate & blimming expensive where you can!

Bought hubby two brand new adidas t-shirts (with labels still on) for £2.99 each. Just looked on website - would have cost £25 each in a sport's shop.

Does your friend want another friend?
