"Was this boring??"…No… not at all! I totally enjoyed this episode 😁 I love perusing charity shops {op shops are they are called here in Australia}. Usually here, the best days to visit these shops are Tuesdays and Wednesdays, otherwise it's a bit hit and miss, with varied prices…some being very expensive for what the actual item is. It is always fabulous going on the treasure hunt…or just wandering through the shops. Have a great day 😊💐

I like to go to affluent areas for charity shops, but these prices are ridiculous. I'm prepared to spend up to £45-£60 for vintage or designer, but only if it's a big ticket item like jackets or coats. I recently found a vintage Japanese Angora wool & rabbit fur coat for £45, that was originally over £700 to buy new back in the 80s. That's my heirloom coat that I'll gift to my children once I can't wear it anymore (and also have children lol).

I guess in a way the prices at the London shops stop the resellers from getting to them and selling them for insane profit, which is a plus.

Vinted is my go-to now, really. I have been so sick of sifting through all the Primark and Shein clothes. Though, in my local charity shop I did once find a Reiss Italian wool blazer, made in Italy, for £3 bloody quid!! That's my best thrift find ever.

Yeah a Saturday morning shopping with Hannah without beinh out on icy pavements -+ in Scotland.Charity shops can be infuriating with prices not as they should be.Its no wonder that folks buy cheap fashion.The force that charities try on unsuspecting people is knon now.Its soooo time for a one stop Organised Charity office where thay can all get a certain amout given each year.😀

Absolute rip-off! No charity in these shops anymore! Not all money made goes to the charity either

I am not understanding the logic of no acceptance of cash payments….BUT if you want to donate cash you can???

Some of those records with the large hole in the center are/were 45’s from the 60’s Hannah…way before your time🤪 Yes I would love you to visit some “ boo-gee” 2nd hand shops in the “boo-gee” areas. Glad you stopped drinking alcohol for whatever reason you will continue to thrive. I love 2nd hand shops and have furnished my 20th century style apt. with items from them.❤

Charity CEOs on £300k … I’ll pass.

What camera do you use? It’s so clear and focused 😊

It’s quite rude of the shop owner of the place with second-hand items to put the notice ‘no cash- only by card and CONTACTLESS’ in capital letters onto their shop window. Is it still Covid time or is it because of the customer profile that they put up that notice there, I wonder.

When I can't sleep at night, I always choose the bags I like on regbags . The bags on this website are affordable and the quality is the same as the original ones. I have bought many bags on this website. I share them with all the sisters who love beauty.

Love your jacket. Where did you find it?

Salvation Army only now. That’s a real charity

No the prices are outrageous for used donated clothing.

I working in fashion industry and used to volunteer in the charity shop, I can said that some of the luxury brand items in the charity shop are AA class copy, fake.

I have loads of jeans and jean jacket loads of tops t shirts dresses coats pants belts purses. A 35 yr collection of things need help to sell and organize everything.. have many many clothes could change 3 times a day lol

Its very good business, they don’t pay for the staff as they are volunteers and they don’t pay for these items, probably dont pay taxes, all free but they charge people so ridiculous prices for second hand, old fashioned items playing on people’s emotions, calling themselves “charity shops” … thats the way making money in the uk! Who goes to the charity shops?! People who can’t afford to buy new ones, so it should reasonably priced! Not to make money, that way they help people who cant afford. But in this country logic doesn’t exist but they make everything to fool people.

Thank you ❤

Reeboks Classic are usually up for sale for 20-30 on Vinted if they're in the same condition and it's a popular size, you have to wait for them to come up for less, what size was it (in the shop)? But generally I agree that Vinted is cheaper than offline second hand shops

I just caught up with this vlog, and, while you may not see this, I have to comment. You continue to prove, no matter the subject, that you can always produce an enjoyable vlog. Your sparkling personality and fabulous wit can make any vlog theme a wonderful journey. But, as usual, it is the final few minutes when you “waffle on” where everything comes full circle and you are just delightful. Your earnest “Can I have six drinks in a day?” made me laugh so hard. And your microphone diss was equally funny. I thought the sound was fine. Thank you, Hannah, for all your hard work.

Charity shops are NOT really "charity" shops! They get preferential rent etc, but get their merchandise for free and then only give a small proportion of their profilts to charity. Nice little earner!

Good to find a new place to buy vinyl, i.e. the Oxfam shop, in St. John's wood! 👍🏻

Thank God I'm not into designer shoes or bags

you judged it quite well , some stuff was overpriced which is silly when you can buy new for nearly same price
