Winter Wonderland

After hearing the phrase 'hasn't it got cold' at least 50 times this week, I thought I would embrace the change in season with some charity retail winter wear.  With the cost of coats and jackets normally leaving a significant hole in your pocket, there's no better place to buy your winter warmers than in your local charity shop.  With prices at least half what you would pay in the shops, you can pick up a range of good-quality bargains meaning you're not stuck with that one heavy duty, practical coat that's got to see you through to 2015!   Plus, this leaves you with just enough pennies to buy some bags to go with them!

The coats on display here range from £5.00 to £50.00 depending on the quality so head down to a charity shop near you to find out what delights they have in store for you this winter.
