BNIB Apple earphones £3 not the trendy wireless ones which I think would be too easy to lose.
Next high waist skinny black velvet jeans £3
White Stuff blue and white Breton top £3
F and F BNWT long sleeve cream T-shirt £4
Cath Kidston teal with white spots oilcloth handbag £5
Best bargain however was a Bosch undercounter integrated fridge. We had been looking for a new one and a message flashed up on Facebook that there was one for sale for £67 in the Community Furniture shop so about £200 saved at least £350 had we gone for Bosch on a new one. It’s in VGC too. And ticks the environmentally friendly box too.

Today's local jaunt was very bargainatious....last week I spotted a black, Jacques Vert crepe midi evening skirt with a lacy, sequinned hem priced at £3.50. regretted not getting it afterwards. Today it was on the half price rail.....result!!! Then in the housey holdy stuff there was a lovely pair of curtains by Linea, (didn't know they made curtains?), 90 x 90, with a burgundy & pink abstract flowery pattern on a browny grey background, fab condition fully lined and weighted and i knew they would fit in with my sitting room colour scheme. Wasn't thinking of changing my curtains but they were such good quality and priced at £12 I could not resist. Nearly killed me getting them home as they were sooooo heavy but can't wait to get them washed and put up.9
