I couldn't resist a bit more pressed glass, this pretty sugar and cream set came complete with a little tray all for £1.75. 
But my star buy was this for £19.99
Fair enough a reasonable mac you might say but look inside its vintage
It needs a good press, the belt is missing, I'd never use it anyway, likewise it probably had a hood at one stage but it has more fastening arrangements that I will ever need and a nice swingy back with a button tab. 
What a happy girl I am, hoping it might rain a bit this weekend but only on me I don't want to dampen your fun.
What a fabulous find and a perfect fit........I don't mind a bit of rain this weekend, a bit of encouragement to stay in and sew. Those books look interesting, I could do with a good read.....an andedote to all this crafting.

I do that with my books - take some back to the CS & stock up on more :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful raincoat!! Such a good price too!
ReplyDeleteBooks are always the best from charity shops. I also buy and return them often. In fact almost my entire wardrobe comes from thrift stores!! I'm not much for clothes or shopping and this way of shopping suits me just fine. No salesperson breathing down my neck!!
Wow! What a great find. That would have cost a fair few pounds in its day. It always feels good to get a real bargain..... doesn't seem to happen too often these days. Enjoy! Ros
ReplyDeleteI like the swingy back on your mac too, great bargain hunting.
ReplyDeleteBargain! It's amazing what little gems you can pick up in charity shops. Mr JK and I tend to hang onto our things until the bitter end, but I guess a lot of people ring the changes more regularly!
ReplyDeleteI love macs! I love that mac! How come I never find any in the charity shops here?
ReplyDeleteI can see why you wanted it to rain....
ReplyDeleteYears ago Burberry used to suppy spare belts.
It looks like it was made for you:)
