My favourite goodie was a large Raggedy Andy today. We try to go to this good op-shop when we go out of town in the usual direction people go out of town.
We also got a new mens shirt in a packet for $5 and an unusual cake pan, like a sponge one, and sort of like a bundt pan at the same time. I would love to know what it is actually.
A lovely house shaped bag for toys with a handle. Sort of 3D.
We had fun.

Today I went to our local op-shop not the one I usually have all the luck with. Usually Mum helps me and it works out great. Today I did find a pair of jeans for myself and dd12 that fit. However, one didn't. So I have another pair of jeans for dd to try on and also a jumper for dh (jumper is a sweater). It is a great brand. DD9 bought a giant snoopy, we haven't had much in the way of giant toys so it is fun. I got a brand new pair of cullotes for dd for summer for school. They are great. They are like the precious ones the school had when my oldest daughter started school, and remember dd got that stained glass window stuff on one pair and they recently went to the bin. I think we got this pair for not many cents, maybe 50c. Maybe it was OK, it always adds up.  Translation, I am no good with sizing and did I spend too much money? |

Sounds like you did well, Br. As for the sizing thing, I share that problem with you, I'm not a reliable judge of sizes either. You're really lucky to have found some jeans that fit, that's wonderful.

The jumper is nice and warm and not too long as it was a size larger than dh wears, I'd say someone shrunk it lol. He says it is nice and light.
DD loves her pants. They are green/grey and very fashionable. So I think I am happy.
