Charity Shops Getting Expensive!
Comments

I agree with a lot of the comments on here. I have often seen used Primark clothes for sale for sometimes a lot more than what they would have cost new! :eek: and also supermarket Kids School Uniforms again for more than what they would have cost new (and we are not talking about things in good condition either!)
I rarely bother with the 'big' charity shops because of the high prices. I often pop into a local charity shop where the prices are very reasonable (I bought my 4 year old Daughter 2 summer dresses for 75p each and my son brand new jogging bottoms for £2). I also donate all my unwanted things to this shop too, so it's a win win situation. :T
