After about two months of holding out for op-shops to have a muffin tray, bowls and large jars at a reasonable price, I've bought them all at bigW for about half of what the salvos were asking. One place wanted $10 ea for large used Moccona jars, ffs. Used jars should be 50c imo.
the brotherhood have lost it, they are charging $30 for old jumpers with any label except kmart
and they have some weird idea that old means vintage and collectable ( it doesn't )
savers might not be a huge charity but at least they are reasonable
I give away my moccona jars to neighbours in my courtyard, I just put them out in the common area, they are always gone in 10 minutes
Burwood East RSPCA Op Shop is still priced like most places used to be! Got my trench coat for $7. Basically everything ends up on the clearance rack eventually too.
