  • Charity shops i think have the majority vote but i also agree, I found a converse top for £4 which usually goes for £10 plus and ive always wanted something from that brand

    Primark is good if you want some nice tops and sweats (ive had clothes that have lasted a while but I will admit shoes dont last long with continuous wear)

    try downloading Olio its a food waste app but people also give away clothes, they dont appear as often as you may want but its worth a look
    Cosplayer and proud

    I gave up on Olio ages ago, it just didn't have the critical mass of traffic needed when giving perishables away. Has that changed?

    As for me, I also have a limited budget. And I share your love of natural fabrics, I also sweat in synthetics. As it turned out, we have a lot in common. I also buy second-hand clothes like you, because I have a lot of expenses for children. Despite this, sometimes I allow myself buying clothes from online stores that make good discounts. And it doesn't cost me a fortune. It's always a wonderful day for me, because I feel great in these new clothes.Recently, I found a great online store that makes discounts on various products every day and now you do not need to wait for a certain holiday or black Friday. Here I can buy pajamas for the whole family, these are the ones they offer for women (you can see here https://seven.deals/deals/apparel/womens-clothes/pajamas-loungewear) and save the family budget, because it cost me much cheaper than if I bought pajamas without discount coupons.

    Bon Marche went into administration last October. However all the stores are trading and no redundancies have been made so id get in quick if you want to keep a stock of your favourite trousers.

    Im not a fan of the place myself though i did buy my favourite cardigan from there.

    They have, what seem to be genuine, Closing Down sales in the Bon Marche shops at the moment including a few bits from Jaeger. (I'm assuming jaeger must be the same company and also in trouble.). Worth a look for anyone who likes their stuff.
