I went to the Goodwill store by the OW office today on my home from my appointment. I got 2 skirts for $1 each (one black jersey, and one khaki one with cute flowers on the bottom of it), and 3 t-shirts (2 were $1.50 and 1 was $5.99).

Total SCORE!

i love the shoe sections but shoes in charity shops always seem to be too big for me, im only a size 3!
Soraya, i go to all the charity shops really, stockton seems to have about 14, im not even kidding! The marie curie cancer one is where the two necklaces iv bought have been from, and i find that help the aged is reasonably priced, and we've just got one in the town recently called "mind" which always seems to have nice stuff in and is cheap.
Some of them are a bit OTT though, i mean i know its for charity, but iv seen plain t-shirts going for £3.99, and who is goign to pay that when you can them brand new for the same or cheaper?

I went to a thrift shop yesterday and it was a pretty good day for them! Smile

I got overall shorts that i wore today and got a bazillion compliments on. They're sooo goofy and cute. And I got an Izaac Mizrahi (for Target) dress that's really pretty and that I'll wear to my sister's graduation ($7) and some nice bermuda short-length shorts that are like, nice thick stretchy brown material. Hard to describe.

OH and on top of all that, I got 2 scarves. One is a square scarf that's maroon with a like, pasely print on it, sorta. Very pretty and soft - 100% cotton. The other is a pashmina (sp?) which is like, kinda shiney light brownish. Hard to describe, but it's 100% silk and sooo nice.

I'll post pictures if I can...

I got a really cute skirt ($3.99) and tank ($5.99) at Value Village. I also picked up "Wicca" by Vivianne Crowley (I had it many years ago, but lent it to someone and never got it back) for 99 cents, and "Wicked" for $3.99.

Grant picked up a super cool bird claw (we think it's a hawk claw) broach. Definitely antique, definitely cool and macabre.

*bumpy*

Iv been charity shopping a bit today, im desperately trying to save my money but i just cant help buying, and i try to justify it by saying "well its only a couple of pounds"
Anyway here's what i got today, all of them were £2.99

Purple jeans, their kind of skinny jeans but not uber tight. Im happy about these cause they fit well, and usually it takes me ages to get jeans just right.

I bought this a few days ago actually, origionally from H&M. Happy about these too cause i wanted some last year but never found any i liked. The grey jumper i got today too, i had a similar one but lost it, so that one is a nice replacement.

And one other jumper, well its more of a hoodie really. Its 3 sizes bigger than my normal size, but i wanted something baggy to just casually wear on cold days. (even if it does make me look emo!)
