What is your charity shop bargain of the week?

Bless me thread-folk, for I have sinned...

Have been out with my bezzie to Knutsford and can't list what I bought because I had to leave then in the car away from DH's eyes

Promise to list soon!

Knutsford is an amazing place! Can't wait to hear about your finds

Yesterday I bought (yet another) Mantaray long sleeved shirt for OH.
Really nice muted shades of mustard, brown, cream and grey stripes - sounds awful but is actually very smart.
I'm weeding out his old shirts and replacing them with better ones.

A Laura Ashley knee-length 3/4 sleeved dress in charcoal grey jersey with fuchsia, purple and pale grey leaf print.
Plan to wear with fuchsia opaque tights and my purple DMs. :eek:

£3.00 each from Arthritis Concern,

Well done you! :T
Some fab makes there.

I'd have fought you for everything apart from the item in red.

I only bought that because I know that growing-like-a-weed niece has some pink tights & some purple ones to wear with it!!

The pleasure of giving outweighs the joy of self-buying, I find.

(Unless the purchase for yourself happens to be a book ).

The only reason I wouldn't have bought the Pumpkin Patch dress is that my only niece wouldn't have appreciated it (she's 17 ).

* Hands in sick note*

Apologies for absence....got a bad case of 'man-flu' and haven't been out of the house for ages. (it must be bad to stop my trips to the charity shops!)

Hi Everyone,
Tomorrow I am heading from London to Manchester for the day, going by train - Are there any particularly good charity shops that I should look out for?
