    While thrifting I will be looking for home décor, books, stamps, collectables and more. What pre loved treasures will I find? Join me for a massive charity shop haul as show you what's in my bag and all the bargains I have found.

      @@Julie-si3hi A big hello 👋 I think all the smaller ones add up to a big one but it would be nice to experience getting lost in a massive thrift store. Although then I might loose half a day like a trip to IKEA.... Ooh now a thrift store the size of IKEA with a cafe 🤩

    HEDGEHOG - I love Wade Whimsies. I have the same hedgehog too and I use him as my counter when we're playing Monopoly. He's just so lovely and chunky. Glad I found you. Very relaxing. :)

    The tortoises are cute, I have a tortoise so I would definitely have been drawn to them if I had seen them. I have quite a few Whimsies, I collected some when I was little and then inherited more when my Nana died. I love a browse around charity shops but a lot of the ones near me are set out like posh boutiques with prices to match so it’s hard to find a bargain. I’m in Surrey so it’s interesting to see places that are within reach of me. 😀

    • @tinymouse.travel
      @tinymouse.travel  6 місяців тому

      I think someone must have been collecting them there were so many tortoises in that shop.
      Did you ever get your orginal Whimsies from a christmas cracker? My grandparents used to get them each year.
      The charity shops in Surrey are on my wishlist but don't know the area so well, but then that makes it perfect for exploring. Although it sounds like I may end up window shopping 😊

    I had those little ceramic animal figurines as a little girl. I still have them somewhere. I also think the HEDGEHOG is one of them. Mine were called whimsies ( spelling?) and the brand was Wade. I used to buy them with my pocket money ,1972-8 ish, so they can't have been expensive. I bought them from a local gift shop/ironmonger. They were very popular and I played with them endlessly. Funnily enough I worked in a zoo for 15 years as a grown up. Maybe they paved the way!

    • @tinymouse.travel
      @tinymouse.travel  5 місяців тому

      Thank you! Now that is a great bargain. Look long enough and everything can be found at a charity shop. Its just grabbing it when you see it. I think if I leave it for tomorrow, someone else could have seen it yesterday and be thinking the same thing. I love that the older items have a story and somebody has liked them enough to have it in their homes all these years.

    What a wonderful find that box (Egypt?) . The turtles are my favorite because of their cuteness. Lovely items you find this time. It looks like there are so so many thrift(charity)shops in the UK. Here in NL we have thriftshops as well, but you have to search for them. In my village there is one (very small and most of the items are too much damaged/used to sell them properly I think) In a larger city nearby, there are about 8 small shops not more. I love searching in thriftshops, but I guess I have to go to the UK for that. Have a great weekend and thanks for sharing your shoptour and finds.

    • @tinymouse.travel
      @tinymouse.travel  6 місяців тому

      Thank you. I was so happy to find the box and the turtles. We are so lucky, I didn't realise quite how lucky. Most towns in the UK have lots of charity shops sometimes it feels like there are more than other types of shops. 😊 Its such a shame you've found items not in good condition. I heard a great saying recently 'if you wouldn't be happy giving an item to your mother in law, don't donate it'.

      I also remember Tetley tea having freebies of their tea characters. I may still have some somewhere. Although they weren't ceramic.

    Hi Tiny Mouse! Your channel just popped up on my home page and I love it. I adore charity shopping, and UK travel, so I've subbed to you on both my channels. My youngest daughter is cat mad and she would love that Oscar book. I would absolutely wear the trendy canvas shoes haha. The present making book is fabulous. Oh wow I would love a Koala experience, that must have been amazing. Those tortoises are adorable. Great video. Hedgehog!!

    • @tinymouse.travel

      @@tinymouse.travel Sounds amazing. When we were at Longleat last year, we saw someone having a koala experience and I wanted to do it so bad. And there were people having a red panda experience which looked adorable. We did a zookeeper experience for our youngest a couple of years back and it was the best day. Amazing memories.
