Cancer Research now have 26 superstores on various retail parks throughout the country.
Apart from some new stuff they have for sale everything else is under a fiver.
Did find on my travels prior to Covid that some other charities are going down the Superstore route, I do know my loacal Air Ambulance have a Superstore. |

I have one of these local (ish) to me.
If I’m passing I always have a look. It’s like an addiction.
All kids clothing is £1 too. Got my son a river island coat the other week and my daughter a brand new with the tag playsuit for £2. Bargain.
Charity shop shopping reminds me of my nan so it’s another reason I love it. We used to do it together when I was a kid for books  |

I like to have a look around them. I love the newborn stuff because you're lucky if they are worn more than a couple of times and they are so cheap. Also great for kids toys if you don't want to spend a fortune and most are in good condition. I've got myself some gorgeous clothes brand new with tags plenty of times.
I always make sure to inspect items closely and never buy shoes, underwear or trousers. I volunteered in a charity shop once and some people have no shame and would hand in some shocking items.

"I love a good chazza. There's a Facebook group called random crap found in charity shops and it never fails to make me laugh!
I'm a member of that group. And the terrible art version  "
The art one is great |
