    Here in Massachusetts, USA. Your shops are so clean and organized, our thrift shops are mostly overcrowded, dirty, smell and have things you would never buy that are overpriced. Enjoyed your video, this is the second I have watched and will watch more. You are awesome. Thank you Mr. C.

    I LOVED your idea for the challenge! I think I'll suggest it to my friends too. I live in Chicago and we have tons of thrift stores. Goodwill is my fave. I also loved the idea for putting all those coffee cups on the wall. I think I might do that in my home too. Great vlog, Mr. C!!

    I love how well laid out and organized your charity shops are over there. It makes it very easy to look at items and I noticed you showed some nice quality items also. They were all so clean. Here in America they tend to jam the clothing racks close together making it a bit difficult to maneuver a wagon through. We also don't have that many in the area I live in sadly. I did find a vintage leather coach handbag at a Church charity shop last summer for a dollar tho which was quite awesome. Loved your video as always.

    @geraldinemallon812 5 років тому +1

    I would put a large plate or a round tray in the bottom of the bag to keep the shape. Shirt looks fab and what a great bargain with the candle!! A real gem of a find. Lunch looked lovely but I have to say, I would not have picked the cup with a chip in it. Big no-no. Lol

  • @cathcuthbert2011

  • @CordeliaEarle
    @CordeliaEarle 5 років тому +4

    You must go to quite an affluent area, all the chazza shops around our way are full of Primark crap, sold at pretty much the same price you can get it in shops. I'd love to pick up some Reiss bits for my hubby for a fiver!! Lol
    Brilliant video though x

    Beautiful vlog, as always. I love that it is longer than usual 😃I would never get tired of watching you. In France thrift stores are not as common as in the Uk, and the quality of the items is much much lower as well. But I am coming back to the UK soon and I will tag you in my first thrift shopping, I look forward to it !😃😄☀️

  • @paulinedido1680
    @paulinedido1680 5 років тому

    Looove the video! And love the idea of the bag turned into a pot holder. I’m a HUGE charity shop lover myself and I usually go to Wanstead, Pimlico or Muswell Hill as they’re hot spots for charities. I’m new to your channel and I’d love to see more of these videos as they’re an inspiration and now I know where to go to spot new ones! xxx

    I love Freya as well. Though my monochromatic wardrobe leans towards black, gray, olive and white, I appreciate how she finds amazing items and seamlessly blends the together. What a score in that Lalique candle!! Three or so months past, I found a Diptyque babies candle in a Goodwill Thrift Store, brand new, unburied for $3.00 usd!! They retail for $65. I burn it judiciously as I am not want to buy one at regular price. I was overjoyed to see you found your score! Were you like me, paying at the register hoping no one realized their mistake? 🤣. Wishing you all the best!!

    Hi, love your videos. I'm from the US so it was fun seeing the difference & similarities in the shops there & here. We have TJ Maxx (TK Maxx). Dollar Tree/ Store, which looks like ur Poundland. I thinking you were going to get the black boots you tried on. And the minute you touch that shirt I thought it was your style and it would look nice on you. Glad you got it!

    That made me laugh were a charity shop tried to sell a mans basic Primark black t shirt for 3.00 when Primark charge 1.75 new. I know they have money for charity but their items are donated for free. In stopped giving to the main charity shops once the prices started to skyrocket.

    For the candle, it is Bali traditional aromatherapy . it is common smell when you are entering a luxury spa at 5 start hotel in Bali. But you can found also in cheaper side if you eager to try a balinese door to door traditional massage

    @toonceshere9668 5 років тому

    Love the neat/organized charity shops and the cool new shirt. I'm curious about how your style/taste (clothing & interior design) has evolved over time...And do you periodically evaluate your existing collection/habits/goals, etc? e.g. My style changed from boho to classic over time.

    • @MrCarrington
