Thrifty Treats
3 Apr 2015
Since giving up self employment its been a bit difficult to find the time to have a mooch around the many local charity shops in the area.
Yesterday I found myself with a bit of spare time when the boys were out on play dates so I took myself off for a walk. What a treat to find some great bargains. I found the beautiful blue silk and cotton scarf in the air ambulance shop in Heavitree. Immaculate and a bargain £2.
My all time favourite charity shop is just across the road and has a fantastic book room. You can pick up paper backs from 50p. These three above cost 80p each. I love relaxing with a good book so hopefully will have a bit of spare me time of the Easter holidays to have a good read. The books are all in really good as new condition which is a bonus. Also seem to have a bit of a blue theme going on.
In the same shop I also found these super useful coat hangers. Perfect for the twins trousers. £2 for all four.
Finally I snapped up this huge Marks and Spencer Casserole for just £4 it looked brand new. There were two of them and I am really regretting not picking both of them up !
Not a bad little haul for just over £10. Might have got my thrifting mojo back. Don't tell the hubby !
