@Pollycat I have serious coat envy - that purple metallic one is gorgeous, and what a bargain!

@Pollycat it's possibly a TK Maxx firm, they certainly sell them as I've looked at them quite recently. 

Thanks, Floss - reinforces my opinion that I got a bargain.
There is a full length one (mine is a jacket) on TKMaxx for £119.99 but it is 50% feather/50% down filled.

@liberty_lily, I love your photos! You are giving my 'I wanna be back in the eighties' vibes. You had a fantastic look.

It is a good find, looks new. I wore my raspberry anorak all of last week (when it was very wet and miserable) and was delighted to discover it has both an inner and an outer zip .

Yesterday morning I went to my favourite furniture chazzer as some occasional tables I had been divining for a long time popped up, not cheap but I am very pleased with them. I then went out to lunch with friends in a neighbouring town yesterday so took the opportunity to hit the chazzer-trail afterwards and ended up with a book, and this lightshade for just £4: 



My Wishlists are held on P'Interest so always available on the phone. One never knows....

Oh that light shade is so sparkly! Just what's needed in these dull days!

My DD had a charity shop find yesterday: an oak display cabinet contemporary with their (older) house for £20. It's now a drinks cabinet. I was quite taken with the Art Deco details.

Thanks so much @Cherryfudge 😊

On Saturday I had a quick whizz around the massive Cancer Research charity shop at Fforestfach (Swansea), but once again despite being crammed to the rafters with stuff, I didn't spot anything that caught my eye. Fortunate really as I honestly don't need much, clothing wise and am trying to operate a *one in, one out* policy.

Just in case I do spot anything over the next few weeks, this morning I prepared a bag of donations ready to go that includes a couple of White Stuff dresses, a River Island cardigan and an M&S Autograph jumper 😉

Oooooh @Pollycat your purple coat makes me think of Ribena and Quality Street chocs!  Makes my week-end purchase of a grey Trespass waterproof & breathable parka, (£10 in Age Concern in Northallerton), seem deadly dull!!!

I am in Coventry and whilst there are no shortage of chazzers here, they are a thorough disappointment. Top of the pops is the massive Barnados in the retail park, I fully expected to be in chaz-heaven but it was neither impressive with respect to stock nor prices which were quite frankly silly.

I shall stick to my well-known haunts in the Southend 'burbs.

A Gudrun Sjoden (can't remember how to spell it and it's in the washing machine!) dress. £8.
