I’m probably giving away what I think of as one of my little secrets but this RSPCA shop is a source of some real gems. I spent a lot of time in here when I was pregnant and after, and probably bought up most of its stock of babysuits(well at 10p each who wouldn’t?!). I don’t get in there as much as I used to nowadays and sadly when I do there’s not so much for my daughter now she’s bigger but I’ve still managed to find some really good toys in there for her at under a couple of quid, often including batteries. Some of the staff know me by sight now and it’s really nice to be able to chat when I go in. I managed to give a few things to them once although I’m not sure whether they would have made much from the books I gave them, they were a bit niche. This is my favourite of all the charity shops in Stony Stratford as it’s like a jumble sale, which I love, being able to dig out a good bargain. The others aren’t quite the same.

This shop is just off the main high street in stony stratford and I think because of this it sometimes gets a bit forgotten about. It’s a tiny little shop — forget trying to get a wheelchair in there, you’re hard put sometimes to walk round the place with a stick so you’d never get a chair in here. They do their best to keep it orderly, but with such a limited space this place does tend to get a bit well disorganised and messy. It’s a good place to look though as there are often odd little things that you can find here.
