Smallish selection, particularly in the books and non-clothing items. But overall cute little place. The $1 sale rack in the back is usually worth checking. read more

Ooooh, I LOVE this shop. You could easily wander in first thing Monday morning and not come out…read moretill Wednesday lunchtime. There are rails and rails of clothes from the 1920s onwards, a men's section on the third floor and oodles of linen, accessories, hats and suitcases. Even old, working sewing machines, buttons and fabulous Vogue patterns from the 1950s. Just when you think you've seen everything, there's another nook or cranny just waiting to be explored. The only heartbreaking thing is that in many cases, the sizes are just too small for most people today. A consequence of changing body shapes, I suppose. But if you are a size 16, then prepare for a long rummage to find something your size. I know, I've been there. But if you look like Christina Hendricks, there's every chance you could leave looking like an extra from Mad Men or like you've walked from the pages of The Best of Everything. Now, the only thing is to find Don Draper.....

As well as being a kookie little shop with a lovely atmosphere the shop is something of a Curiosity with its many strange and wonderful bric-a-brac items! Before i went along i was told by a friend that 'this is the best curiosity shop they have seen in ten year' and i would very much agree!

It's best to go in quite early in the morning as the clothes are folded and put on top of each other so they get messed up very quickly. There is a large range of accessories for girls, aswell as clothes, shoes and underwear on the ground floor. Go up the escalator (or stairs or lift) to find childrens and mens clothes as well as a small selection of household goods

Today, I visited a Age UK second-hand shop in Market Harborough with the intention of trying on…read morefive items. However, I was informed that it was not permissible to try more than two items at a time. I endeavored to remain composed despite feeling quite upset. At the checkout, I politely inquired whether I could return the shoes if they proved to be too large. Although I had tried them on in the shop and found them too big, I thought they might be suitable for my mother. In response, I received an extremely rude and elevated reply. In my twenty years residing in this country, this was the first occasion I felt unwelcome as a foreigner. This experience was particularly unexpected coming from a second-hand shop and especially from an elderly lady.

Also new cards, hosiery etc and occassional nic-nacs. The ladies who work there are lovely, friendly and always welcoming. I find it almost impossible to pass without popping in, and rarely come away empty handed, especially if I have the children with me as they love delving through the baskets of little toys under the shelves. The ladies will also happily clamber into the window display or delve into the storeroom if you're looking for something in particular, and always price things reasonably.

It goes without saying there is also a great clothing section with lots of choice for Men and Women. I went especially to get some jeans for my son and came out successful. If you are a fan of Charity shops or Bargain hunting I would definitely recommend a visit. The staff are very welcoming Helpful and cheery too.
