Yeah, British charity shops certainly aren't as good as the thrift shops here.
Though I did pick up a large collection of Warhammer figurines from the British Heart Foundation store.
My best find was at another charity shop though, I can't remember which one. I was buying a Charles Tyrwhitt shirt and noticed two rings behind the cashier. I asked if they were for sale and if I could see them. They were both chunky 18k gold rings. I asked how much, and she said 5 pounds each. So of course I now own those. 😀
Wow. Good finds @getonthetrain. I think the big charities must have professional "checkers" nowadays so the valuable stuff isn't often sold in the shops.
The best stuff I've bought has been stuff for the kids, especially after Christmas!
Since I've stopped doing much crafty stuff i look less nowadays although, I find, they are still very good for leather handbags! 😂
