I found lots of McDonald’s Happy Meal toys when I popped out for milk and cat food, including a bag of Despicable Me minions and six plush Animal Jam toys. I also picked up an unopened boxset of the Sir Derek Jacobi TV series “Cadfael” on DVD.
Last Tuesday during my rounds in Rayleigh, I picked up the complete collection of Paddington Bear TV episodes, a large G4 My Little Pony and a couple of dog tag necklaces, an Inside Out figure and a little bag of Ever After High accessories.
I found a mixture of things this week, including vintage plastic picnic items (Mr Men!), Teeny Tiny Tumbles Surprise, Polly Pocket, Monster High, a furry bunny bag, Black Books and two fruity t-shirts!
This weeks finds included Rainbow Spice, three Furbys, a purple Frizzys, a Liv “Alexis” doll, a Steffi Love “Little Mermaid Twins” doll, Kula Shaker, The Royal Family and a skull torch!
I found all sorts of things last week! On Wednesday I found the complete boxset of Friends, Guardians Of The Galaxy soundtrack and a few little toys (including Littlest Pet Shop, Cupcake Surprise and Ever After High). Then on Saturday I bought lots more little toys, including Zelfs, Blythe, My Little Pony and golden Moshi Monsters.
A mooch around Rayleigh’s charity shops on Tuesday morning filled my pockets! I found a weird furry hat with teeth, Teletubbies, Mr Men, Digimon, Baby Bop, Barbie, Larry the Lamb, Meg & Mog, and Frasier!
Saturday’s finds include Gimme Gimme Gimme, Teen Wolf, Star Trek, Extras, Men Behaving Badly (through the post) and Paddington! I wasn’t in the mood to go through LP’s and didn’t find any toys worth getting.
I wasn’t going to let the sweltering heat put me off my charity shop mooching on my way home from work this week and found Zelfs, Quadrophenia, Highlander, Hogfather and Revelation. I also found a cat scratching post for the kitties!
Last week’s meagre charity shop finds included two DVD’s (Stand By Me and Men Behaving Badly) and two CD’s (Echobelly & Revolver).
This weeks mid-week charity shop perusal found me various TV show DVD’s (True Blood, Battlestar Galactica and Life On Mars), two Ladybird books, the Ready Player One book and a lovely illustrated fairy tales book.
I quick browse through the charity shops on my way home Wednesday found me a sci-fi double of Galaxy Quest and D.A.R.Y.L., both in excellent nick. I love Galaxy Quest and we watched it straight away but I haven’t seen D.A.R.Y.L. in years, so by Grabthar’s Hammer, I will watch it this weekend!
We popped over to Rayleigh last Saturday for a snoop around the charity shops (and a few pints in The Half Moon), and found a selection of books and TV series DVD’s, including series one of Frasier, BBC’s Bleak House, and the first three Maze Runner books.
