Half price day!!! Well I had to be there and I bought this bed base and look at that storage!! Charlotte approves, she is thinking of moving in. This is a spare bed and I tossed out the cheap bed I had there .
Same bed now made up with pretty OP shop linen. Looks a bit plain, I think it needs some cats or bears....soon solved.
And I bought this pretty lounge. In good condition it looks much better than my old one and the cushions look better too.
The poor old lounge. It's had a good life, bought many years ago and recovered twice I fell out of love with it years ago but my cats have always loved it. Now it is waiting for a trip to the tip.
Charlotte and Emily have been demanding a new lounge for weeks. They've finished with this one.
Yes, Op shop shoes but these are brand new Hush Puppies. Normally sold for well over $100 I bought these for $25 a pair. They are salesman samples and as salesmen always show the smallest size, in this case size 6 (=4 UK or 37) which is just my size-lucky me- they are then donated to an OP shop. The two in front are the same but one pair is black and the other light navy. I also have red sandals I forgot to include. Yes I do have 2 feet I'm only showing one of each pair. There were other shoes I had to leave as a bit unsuitable with very high heels I might have fallen off.

What a great op shop haul. Storage under the bed, yeah - what a good score. Unless Charlotte has already got plans.
ReplyDeleteVery smart shoes. Not like that old lounge, looks like the girls gave it a dreadlock makeover!
Great finds! Lucky you being size 6. :-) I wonder how long it will take the girls to add personal touches to the new lounge?
ReplyDeleteWhat a great days shopping.
ReplyDeleteThe underbed storage would be a real mansion for Emily ! So why did you cover it up ? Poor thing ! And then how nice of you to buy a new sofa for them ! They did a wonderful job on the old one ! Real artists ! Looks like modern Art.
ReplyDeleteThe shoes must be very comfortable. I am always happy when I make good bargains. Buying expensive is too easy !
What's an op shop?
ReplyDeleteAn OP shop is an opportunity or charity shop. My favourite and the one I bought all these bargains from is run by the Salvation Army. Another favourite is run by St Vincent de Paul Soc. Most goods are donated and 2nd hand. I often donate goods then buy other peoples donations. It's fun and I admit I'm a bit of an op shop addict. Sylvia
DeleteGosh ~ you got some great bargains!! I do love a good deal. Excellent!
