Sweet Charity


This is a really intesting article from the Guardian back in March about why charity shops are beating high street stores in terms of sales despite our recession at the moment. People are definitely starting to take an interest in second hand buying, some purely because they cannot afford the likes of overpriced retail stores anymore.  During a recession, non necessity purchases are the first to go but by buying second hand, you can still afford to have a treat once in a while at massively reduced prices. 

It supports the idea that second hand doesn't have to be second rate as I have always said.  If you are not a charity shop convert - add it to your to do list this week......  You never know, you may just find that perfect little item that you never knew you wanted!
