Charity Shopping - New to You in '22!

CAFCGirl

One charity shop this morning, my fav.
£7 spent.

Paperback book £1
Cactus shaped vase £1.50 (fits my plant parent aesthetic)
Twister game (looks quite unused) 50p (already played 5 rounds amongst us. Might be too old for Twister LOL)
Plastic storage drawer, small desktop size but not mini. Perfect for all my craft gubbins in my office for my business £2 each and got the 2 they had, and they look very clean so will do a wipe over and put them to use.

Good haul...

Oooh, wonder if we were in Sue Ryder at the same time, @CAFCGirl?

Look out for a child sitting on the furniture, catching unsuspecting browsers by suddenly moving and thus increasing their heart rate rapidly.
That'll be mine.... LOL

Also - what did you find?

I will try not to scream if I see sudden movement!

My find was a small shelving unit with 'dolls house' sides and roof, and coat pegs underneath. I have two old dolls houses so rather than being a storage or hanging up place, I rather think this one is going to be another house. It's hard to describe - about a metre square and looking like the front of a town house but where a dolls' house front might open to show room, this one is mostly shelving.

Airforce  blue Pretty Little Thing BNWT T-shirt body £3.50
Small pink waterproof bag for swimsuit £1.25
Pendant necklace of a cat outline £3.50
Nike PE leggings black with pink trim £3.50. I already have a pair with a different shade of pink trim which are my favourite so good to have another pair.
M & S silver leather pumps VGC and wide fitting so can accommodate my bunioned trotters £5
And my Best Buy:  a gorgeous Per Una black velvet fitted short jacket £5 on the tag but when I got to the till they said everything was half price so £2.50.
At least 6 items to go out.

Found a black & white checked trench stylee 3/4 coat by Dorothy Perkins in the Cancer Research shop in Northallerton yesterday, (the Barkers end one!) for £7.  Never really bought any DP before but this is quite smart and think it might be showerproof. Will go with my dozens of pairs of black trousers & jeans!.  Also got a John Rocha pawsh candle in a rose flavour.  Praps overpriced at £4 but smells lovely.

I saw something denby and realised that I don't remember the last time it was mentioned on this thread? Am I going loopy?

This weekend I got some hotter shoes (my favourite) £5, green m&s jeans with leaves £4 and a bride authorised bridesmaid bag for the upcoming wedding £6! Was delighted!

Sadly, DfV, (our resident Denbyholic), doesn't post as often these days.  I really miss her posts.  She has such a wondrous take on life!!

I'm another Denby fan - but haven't bought any since last year. I don't buy 'just any' Denby though, I have a passion for Homestead which has been out of production since 1986 or 7.

I bought some smart black trousers today for £3, having realised all my black trousers are a bit faded for interview purposes.

@Miró, I think I saw some Laura Ashley candles in the Yorkshire Cancer Research shop if you're interested.

In the posh hospice shop a pair of Dune black, croc patent leather lace up boots with cleated soles £10. Look brand new.
