One of my favorite charity shops to pop into. They frequently have new merchandise and the staff are always lovely.

I honestly do not understand why people like Barnardo's. This was my first visit, and I subsequently visited two others in Edinburgh and I was not impressed. Organising clothes by colour can work wonderfully. It doesn't here. Jackets, trousers, tops, and skirts are all crammed in together, nothing is sorted by size, half of the things are on hangers labeled with sizes that don't correspond to the item's size; it's a mess. Sadly, I found that the other shops in Edinburgh are similarly organised. The clothes they did have were mostly okay, apart from a couple of items with huge holes in them... The lady at the cashier was not the friendliest, barking at customers to "wash their hands" (use the hand sanitiser, which many customers would have been happy to do had it not been half hidden away) the second they opened the door. A "Hello" might have been nice. She then started singing along to the radio off key and I promptly left the shop. I'll stick to other charity shops in the future.
