Charity Shop Haul
So this week I decided to take a break from my rather intense studying (just 7 weeks to go!!!) and have have a little wander round my local charity shops. I purposefully took just £5 out with me to see what I could find.
Well it was a delight.
I used to love scouring charity shops but I have been a little time short lately (a lot time short if I am honest) and within 10 minutes in just 1 shop I had my 5 frugal things!
Want to see what I got for my £2.50?
Well we are off on holiday soon so I had my eye out for a good book for the beach (£1)
A DVD for the kids, to take with us for the evenings (50p)
And I also got us some lovely crafty bits for half term (and Valentine cards) plus a perfect embroidery set that can slip in the present drawer – (3 for £1!! )
What a great little haul!
Cheered me up no end.

What a great charity shop haul, will be a great help at half term. My kids really enjoyed the Spiderwick Chronicles when we borrowed the DVD from the library.
Man I love charity shops! I really like the idea of going with a budget – nice work!
Some great things there… I went in today and got my baby girl 4 pairs of next/hnm leggings, 2 cardigans, and a baby grow in the next size for £3.50!! WHOOOPP x #5frugalthings
Looks like a great little haul, well done you. I love a good book!
