Charity Shops

[Pepe n Pilar]

Not yet experienced to buy 2nd hands clothes there. I'm after their toys and quality items to display at home. Very classy and good for collections to sell/keep in Pinas someday

Hi Penny,
Have you seen brand new branded items?(signature clothes). When you're inside the charity shops are you not tempted to take a look at the clothings? (mag usisa lang or mag baka sakali in tagalog). We know how women are...You might happen to see brand new items with a seal on it.
Ah so you're fond of bric-a-bracs collection as well.

My wife seems to be incapable of walking past a charity shop without going in and rummaging around for a bargain.

Hi Iain...
Alright. So humble of you.. Cheers!...
If Louella oftentimes visits a charity shop you can tell her she can be a donor. I've donated some books and for every bag of books there's a voucher of £5.00 from WHSmith (but this is just a promo and has an expiration).

She does donate, but only when she can't fit anymore stuff into the wardrobes, closets, cupboards or drawers.

Hi Iye,

If you/husband are taxpayers you can Gift-Aid the items/products that you have donated...

Not only you have donated the products but once they are sold, the charity/foundation can claim a GiftAid off from the government!!!

Hi Zobel,

I don't have any idea of these charity shops bec hubby didn't tell me until one day i have discovered this. Whenever i'm in the town center there's no single shop that i won't try to look what's in there, hence the discovery.... I should have brought my items straight to the shops rather than leaving them in the black wheelie bins infront of Tesco.
He called a truck to collect our used furnitures, picture frames, and bric-a-bracs and paid £10.00. I just happen to discover again a charity shop for furnitures and bric-a-bracs and asked if they collect items from home and want to know how much they charge. Alas! it's free just tell them you're available time and day you're home.

One thing Puzzles me Why is victoria Beckham asking about e-bay and Oxfam shops Unless............When I lived right next to heathrow in Ashford back in 2000 I knew a guy called Mark,he was convicted and served time for handling 4 of Vic's Louis Vuitton suitcases stolen as she landed at Thief'row as all locals called Heathrow back then,but I do remember his girlfriend had her house raided and some of victorias clothes were found in her wardrobe,she said she had disposed of some in Ashfords charity shops If your looking for them Vic I am afraid they might be long gone,and pepe n pilar is an unusual pseudonym,maybe the pepe alludes to Davids Real Madrid days I am just rambling as normal,ignore me,I had an extra sugar in my coffee

Have not seen any brand new. Maybe in some part of UK. Sometimes there's tags but looks used.

Just really after their decorative items and children toys

Perhaps the branch you have visited doesn't have the first hand items. They pass on to the next shops every 2 weeks which they call rotation.

With the tags and looks used? Can someone wear a clothing with the tags on?
