This used to be my absolute favourite charity shop - great quality stuff, good brands and really great prices. Loads of rails to browse through and even a 50p bargain rail with incredible stuff on it! I have to travel quite a long way to get to it it but I never minded because of the great stuff I used to get - I'd come out with a couple of bags every time. I was there just after lockdown was lifted and it was fabulous but I went in today and it's completely different. Hardly any rails at all and all crammed in around the edges of the shop, and you couldn't get close to them because there were bags and boxes piled in front of them. When I did manage to lean over far enough to look it was all stuff from Primark, Asda or New Look - not a single quality brand and all priced too high for that kind of stuff. No bargain rail at all. There was a big box by the door full of screwed up clothes that you could fill a carrier bag with for 2.50 but I didn't see anything worth having and didn't fancy digging through it in current circumstances. Came away with nothing. I don't think I've EVER left a charity shop empty handed in my life! Seriously disappointing. Don't know if I'll bother going again. If you are in charge of this shop and reading this then please, please put it back the way it was before - it's been completely ruined!
