Charity Shops, Worthwhile?


Recommended Posts

It's always worth a look, you never know what will turn up. I managed to replace my fathers old silver fusee watch many years ago with an Identical one from a charity shop. I threw his away when I was seven because I was too frightened that he would find out that I broke the hands off. I was forty seven when I replaced it and told him the story!

I found (or rather my wife found) a Mint copy of "Cooksey Shugart Complete Watches" in a charity shop in Stratford on Avon for the princely price of £1.95 (plus a small additional donation to allay feelings of guilt at getting it so cheap).  I always have a look at the books despite being an avid kindle user.  Have seen a few watches but up to now, none I would want to toy with, but you never can tell what the future holds.
