I love a bargin so you can imagine how much I love shopping in charity shops. You really can pick up a good bargin. I live on a budget so always happy when I can get cheap stuff.

    I love going in to my local charity shops. I have bought furniture, books, jewellery, etc. at bargain prices. One of my favourite places to shop at  :)

    I do enjoy picking up a bargain in a charity shop but also donate. There are a couple of charities close to my heart so I tend to take them their first. Only once have I been turned away as they had too much stuff and no place to store it.

    I buy a lot of books from charity shops and at one point used to get a lot of DVDs too. I’ve also picked up many bargains on clothes. A lot of them brand new with tags still on.

    I buy jumpers and summer short sleeved shirts from charity shops, they often sell good name brands. 🙂

    To be fair I was shocked today my friend has said slot of charity drops have closed here due to funding and staff off with corona virus and lack of volunteers  which is a shame I think alot of shops cafes restaurants  and pubs will close

    @Tori_Scope hi, happy new year.
    Yes before Christmas I went in a few charity shops and brought my mum a jumpsuit which was beautiful and surprisingly it only cost £1, I was amazed 😁

    £1 for a jumpsuit is great @Tammyjane33! Did she like it?
