I came back with an excellent hoard of goodies from my local charity shop a short while back, including three records, seven books (Tony Hart and Cockleshell Bay) and two Equestria Girls dolls.
Music
Stan Kenton ~ “Viva Kenton!” [1960]
“Exciting Latin rhythms with the Kenton touch!”
How could I resist?

Popmobility [1977]
“The disco party record that helps keep you fit.”
This is a gatefold album with three double-sided exercise instruction inserts. It’s quite an odd collection of tracks for working out to! Unlike most records of this type there is no voice-over telling you what to do, just the music.

New Kids On The Block ~ “Hangin’ Tough” [1988]
I bought this purely for the “RAD” sticker the original owner had placed over Jordan’s face!
McFly ~ “The Heart Never Lies” [2007]
I love picture discs (not McFly!), and this one is signed. Plus it was only 20p.
Toys
These two My Little Pony “Equestria Girls” dolls were only 50p each.
Books
Cockleshell Bay ~ “Dressing Up” & “Cockleshell Christmas” [1982 & 1985]
Tony Hart ~ “Art Factory” 2, 3 & 4 [1980]
Unfortunately book 1 was missing.
My First Book Of Hans Andersen Stories
I actually bought this because I love the inner cover illustration, all of which are by Esme Eve. It has no publication date, but would guess at early to mid 1960’s.
