My hubbys funny about charity shops too, he doesent mind when i buy him t-shirts and stuff but he wont go in them. | Luckily my hubby's not bothered about charity shop stuff. I wash everything I get before it's worn, so as long as it's all clean and in good condition, he's fine with it! |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I personally don't as I rarely go anywhere, my mum does however. She got me two moses baskets because she couldn't choose which one to get. A load of sheets and blankets, babygros etc for £12 or something like that. I am buying the cover etc for the moses basket as want that new but apart from that you get good bargains. No different getting from charity shops as it is from buying used on Ebay, only thing is money goes to charity  |

There are some charity shops here that I wouldn't even think about buying baby stuff from but I was so impressed with the stuff in save the children. As soon as you walk in you can tell everything is clean (sounds odd but some charity shops just smell odd!) |
