In my family home my Dad has an expression” there are two types of people in this house, the quick, and the hungry”. Same goes for this place. As soon as they get stock in the«twats» come out and raid the place. I have a vintage hot pink wiggle dress from here that cost £3 — BARGAIN! They have a brilliant selection of second hand furniture, not all of it tasteless, and they deliver it too. Also, if your really lucky, the portly shopkeeper will trap you in in an awkward conversation about what you do for a living and what colour knickers you’ve got on — not an unpleasant experience but definitely entertaining. I give this place 5 stars because I love it, you may not but I really do, it has an east end charm that you have to embrace.

This massive charity shop on Kingsland Rd is one of my favourite in the area. It is HUGE, with huge glass windows for you to look into and suss out your bargain. There’s rows and rows of clothes and shoes, i had my eye on a fabulous dress in there in the summer, i went in one Saturday and decided not to buy it, come Wednesday when i changed my mind and returned to purchase it, it was gone! Which highlights the popularity of this shop. There’s not only clothing goods, but mounds of books, furniture and electrical equipment. This is a pretty safe bet if you need to deck out a room on a budget. They also have shelves and shelves of videos and cd’s, and they’re cheap. I shamefully bought about twenty Friends and Ab Fab box sets from here a while back for the cost of a mere £5?! Fantastic shop, pop in and have a browse.
