I am a great fan of charity shops as we call them here and I have to admit that once a week, and generally on thursdays because I am not working in the morning, I go around the various shops.... I regularly read Janelle's posts (herehttp://thejanellewindcollection.typepad.com) and decided to also post my finds of which I am so proud , so here you are:

Why do I like charity shops???
1- the money goes to a good cause and helps people less fortunate than us and you feel that your money is put to good use
2- It recycles
3- I buy things I could not afford to buy and it allows me to do shopping therapy at a lower cost
oohhhh taht felt bag is soooo cute! And I love the wool too! Yes, thrifting is one of the best shopping therapy if you are in a budget. I wish we had more charity shops/thrift stores here. :D
