Brand new (looks it, and inner label still stiff) M&S purple teeshirt £1, and a pack of 10 lovely Christmas cards for another £1, originally priced £3.59 from a different charity shop.  They are not the usual snowman and tinsel cards, they are quite arty, depicting a partridge in a pear tree.

Also tempted out by the sunshine.....called into the big CRUK clearance shop and ended up staggering home with a large table lamp complete with shade.  Traditional stylee with a brass base and cream silk pleated shade still with the cellophane wrapping.  £6.  Intend giving it as a birthday prezzy to a friend who is refurbing a dining room with vintage Ercol furniture so think it might suit.

A few bits and bobs of late:
bright pink PE top £2.75
H and M pink with orange yellow and black flowers. Much less hideous than it sounds 50p.
white very fine cotton Pepperberry  shirt with pretty mother of Pearl buttons. Very slim fitting so I think I may be able to tuck into jeans or a skirt £1
Papaya ribbed white T shirt £1.50
Boden pink and blue linen wraparound skirt £5
Hoodie Nutmeg cardigan with fluffy lining for GS £1.50
My favourite thing however is a denim dress with 3/4 sleeves and a zip up the front to a pointy collar. It’s stretchy denim and quite close fitting and comes to just below the knee. By Outline Jeans £3.

@moneyonmymindsamThank you, was worth it, the little girl's been in one of DD's old coats in the buggy every morning this week, so seems she needed it. Was one I got in TKMaxx that DD only wore a few times, near enough new, glad it'll get further use.

This morning's brief stop in the CS found me a 2-man tent, not ever used outdoors judging by the state and smell of it, maybe indoors though but that's what I want it for, so my two can play in it in the lounge! I'd been looking at the sale ones in the discount outlet up the road and they're still £40, I got this for £10. Much better!!

I can't seem to stop shopping at chazzers now I've started again.

I went into the local town centre again today. I went into two different charity shops. I was looking for some grey boots but I didn't find any. I did buy a black and white tunic, a black cardigan and a black hand bag. Only £6 for all three.

I went into town today too.  Saw a bnwt  Boden white cotton jumper for £5.99 - plain apart from deep cuffs with cute little pearl buttons.  Convinced myself it was overpriced so left it.  The called into M & S to see what horrors they had in their winter collection this year.  They had their 'final reductions' sale on with racks and racks of trousers at £3.49 and tops at £2.49 and under..  Ended up getting a pair of rust, straight legged trousers and a top with a 'ditsy' pattern.  Then, ahem, I picked up the Boden jumper on my way home!

DFV may I ask where the Brain Tumour Shop is please?  My cycling club has this as our charity of the year as one of our members was diagnosed with one last year and sadly she passed away and her funeral was on Friday. We haven't been able to do as much this year to raise money but are trying to do a bit more now.  

As ever, Miro is the brains of the outfit - this is her post so I remain geographically bewildered but trying to help. (Thank god the tombstone is booked as reading "it worked for us", or "tried to help" would be a contender.)

I worked today and went in early to browse as usual. Bought a grey roll neck 100% cashmere sweater for £3 and a set of Viners cutlery with 6 of everything including teaspoons for £3. The sweater will probably go to my DD and the cutlery to GS number 3 but the scarf I bought for £1 is for me.

Footpather & DFV.....stoopid site won't let me do a quote so.....

Thanks for the nudge DFV.    

The Brain Tumour Research Charity Shop (BTRS) that I go to is in Headingley, Leeds.  (31, Otley Rd, Headingley, Leeds, LS6 3AA).  I believe it is a Yorkshire based charity.  Hope this helps x

Thanks Miro and sorry DFV (I mustn't have looked properly).
I'm in Bradford and as I said my cycle club is supporting this charity this year.  I did wonder where the shop was you mentioned. I've often driven up there when I have been to the Clothes Exchange but have never visited the shops.
