Yeah I have to be too but I am sure I always will be.

Hard to resist a good bargain, but they can be hard to find. Bargain shoppers may be interested in one of the sites in my signature

I LOVE bargains!

My friends always have a clear out of their wardrobes and leave the bin bag for me!

As I like to alter my clothes and make them all into originals, this is a great and very cheap way to do it!

I also manage to get some designer wear from them!

I have a pair of jeans that I have had for eight years - they are falling appart - and I just keep sewing them up and patchin it together again! My friends and family all laugh about it, as I am sure there will be very little original material left in the end!

I am just gutted that a LOT of the charity shops near me have either closed or become really expensive! I don't want to pay £18 for a second hand pair of jeans!

It's mad, didn't it?! I was looking for knitted tops for my artwork - wanted to unpick it - and they were wanting £15 for them too!

I think they are trying to be like the Oxfam Originals - just down the road. They sell designer stuff and altered clothes! A lot of the designer stuff is brand new, but has a small pull or something in it! They sell it for £18, where the shop it came from sells them for approx £58!!

But second hand stuff??!! That should be cheap, like my Betty Jackson cords that I bought for £1.50!
