There are some really beautiful towns in and around Shropshire, where there are specialist shops, delicatessen's, coffee shops and tea rooms (always important for refuelling on a busy shopping morning!) and one of the towns I just adore, is Shrewsbury!  With cobbled streets, black and white quirky buildings and a myriad of shops - including a huge variety of Charity Stores....there is just so much to see and with every visit, I find something new...it's exciting and fun to 'mooch'!

Of course, when finding 'buried treasure' in Charity Stores...not only are you giving something a new lease of life...but it's also worth remembering that it's supporting good and charitable causes....British Red Cross, Salvation Army, Cancer Research, Help the Aged...and lots more - and although you will always find a lot of 'not so beautiful or useful' things...chances are (and there have been many!) that you will also find something really special....something you just know will fit into your life, wardrobe, home...etc....like it was meant to be!!

happy shopping....:)
