Nanny, my grandmother used to often go to one in Ammanford...Is it not still there?


there are several in ammanford, including 2 that the ammanford railway association run

the major charities all have them of course but the smaller charities are now also in there

it is only a matter of time i think before we go for it but it has to be planned carefully

I spent last Sunday trying to find an outfit for a funeral, no joy.
On Monday I went to the Sue Ryder shop in Ilminster, and found a  lovely Next suit for £8.We also have a Lifeboat Shop and a St Margarets Hospice Shop(locally known as Harrods ) Very good for all my clothes for work, books etc. Tom and Jen also bought some furniture and curtains.

I'm afraid I'm addicted to charity shops! Here are some of the bargains I found in the last twelve months!
The oil burners are only some of my collection, the aromatherapy box was empty but brand new for £4.99!
I use the tagine, but I have a modern egg coddler for general use, they are all Royal Worcester and everyone £2 or less!



Come to think of it, the table was charity shop too!
