Comment by lady in Charity Shop

[Sportslady44]

This was going back some time before mumsnet AIBU etc but its always stayed on my mind.

I bought some trousers from a charity shop once, they were quite nice i suppose and looked new.

Anyway when i took them to the till to pay the lady behind the till obvs liked them too and said nobody will ever know. She meant nobody will know you have bought them from a charity shop.

Was that a strange comment? So what if people did know?

But maybe it was being judgey about it being from a charity shop. Maybe it was more like... they look as good as new, your can't tell they have been worn.

This is weird. I would just let it go, this far down the line.

IIRC, AIBU was a late addition to MN.

Blimey if this is all that stews in your head for best part of two decades I'll have your life please!

She was telling you you got a bargain. It's her job!

My charity shop treasures are a source of pride

Is this a joke 😂
