@SlippinKimmy max mara coats if pure cashmere are £2000 now. I bought mine new but in the sale. I shall go out in it to bye bye baby!

Yep, it’s pure cashmere! I knew they were expensive but didn’t realise how much till I got home and looked it up 😱. They’re so lovely to wear, glad you are enjoying yours.

Not uk...suburb of Barcelona, huge Humana shop, choco with great leather jackets, suits, jumpers...we got Adolpho dominguez suit for 4 euros. its right at the end of an underground line so not a popular destination, no tourists would venture out there. near me in london there is very little, all poor quality and shocking prices, worn out old gucci trainers for £300...bonkers. Surbiton used to be worth a day trip, have got some great new items for low prices in one shop.

Only recent bargain was a pair of christian lacroix glasses, £4, then spent £16 for reglazing with my prescription , on line shop.

TollgateDebs · 05/02/2023 17:29

Salvatore Ferragamo black suede platforms, £24 (very similar on website for £750) - M&S no mid length leather jacket (no collar) £25 - M&S Autograph Italian leather handbag £7 - Tod's handbag £6.50 and still on the website for £1700!!!!!! In different shops, different parts of the country and not all at the same time. Local shops have very poor offerings, so generally check out shops when we travel further afield.

DarlingCoffee · 05/02/2023 17:38

Recent buys: Mint Velvet blue jeans £6, Woolovers cashmere striped jumper £6 and Jack Wills sweatshirt £6.50.

I try to regularly donate also so I like to think it’s good karma that I spot some bargains

moimichme · 05/02/2023 18:40

M&S silk trousers in exactly the colour I wanted, bnwt, £5.99
And even better (I didn't entirely realise how much of a bargain it was until I got home and googled it) - a black crossbody Ines de la Fressange bag for £3
