    Ludlow today (take note Frith) :D
    I liked the look of the East cardigan I spotted in Oxfam. Checked the price: £19.00 :eek:
    I know 'East' is a good label but this is ridiculous! I went right off charity shopping in Ludlow after that.
    Normal people worry me.

    All packed and ready for my holibobs but with a little time to kill I decided on a last minute trip to my local hospice shop. Wot should I find but a suitcase weighing thingymajig....brand new in the box for 75p. Got home and weighed my case with the new gadget....3 kilos over the allowance :mad: Aaaaaarrgghh!


    So that 75p saved you......??? :)

    Your post is like one of those "what happened next?" sports quiz show questions! Presumably you had to unpack and re-pack everything, and make some difficult decisions! :rotfl:
    :D I haven't bogged off yet, and I ain't no babe :D

    Oh you've all done so well over the last few weeks. I've loved reading about all your finds but I must confess to the odd twinge of 'it's not fair'! I've popped in to lots of charity shops over the last few weeks and not found a thing.

    However, the charity shop fairies were very kind to me yesterday. In a local hospice shop I bought two lovely summer Boden skirts (£4 each), a pretty White Stuff summer blouse (£3) and a White Stuff velvet coat (only £4!!). They were all in great condition and are a perfect fit. Some lovely lady my size had obviously donated some real goodies and I was very happy to give them a good home :j.

    I think the thing I love about charity shopping is that when I do find treasures, I feel that they are there just waiting for me. I think it must be because they are either in your size or they're not! Am I a little mad?!

    Hi all :)

    Popped into Worcester today. I was only parked up for 30 mins to go to the bank but managed to have a quick look in a few charity shops on route. Picked up a brand new edge guard from BHF for £1.49 (its basically just foam that sticks around the corners of tables to stop DS hitting his head as he's currently perfect height).
    Also picked up 3 pairs of Gymboree pjs for DS. A few sizes too big, but they'll go in his 'to grow into' drawer. Gymboree is so hard to find and at 50p each they were a steal.

    Suze :)

    Our local Barnardos 99p shop had some brand new (but very creased) Lands End t-shirts. I bought two.

    I also found some Linea off-white jeans that looked unworn. Same ones on-line are £69.

    Summer camping wardrobe partially sorted :j
