Junk Again is another fantastic furniture place that doesn't require you be to snobby and rich to…read morepurchase their goods. I like Habitat, don't get me wrong, but really, why bother when you can get good quality furniture for much less. Especially if you are a student! Which is perfect for this area. Flocks of students come and go through Leeds, moving every year and needing to get rid of or attain furniture every time they do. Junk Again are aware of this and have cleverly positioned themselves not far from the postcodes that are predominantly student populated. If you are looking for a cabinet, a table, or arm chair, or are looking to get rid of, a fridge, a freezer, or chimney pot, Junk Again is a great place to go. They are slightly chaotic but that just adds to that old fashioned feel of shops of this type. Plus no-one will look down their polished nose at you as they so often do in Habitat.

When my friends and I moved house last year we opted for a grand four bedroom house that was…read moreunfurnished as it wold cost us a little less. That, sadly, was not the case in the end but that's more to do with the Estate Agent and building than anything else. However, pretty much the only thing that we required for our move was a sofa and some arm chairs. Enter: Junk Again! My old housemate had spotted Junk Again on her way through Woodhouse and suggested that we tried here for a cheap second hand suite. I was game for any bargain and so when she called me, all a fluster, to tell me about this awesome sofa, two arm chairs and a pouffe for a mere £40, I came immediately to the scene. Yes. That's right. All that for forty flippin' pounds. The friendly chap explained that he had planned to have them cleaned but hadn't yet, so was willing to let them go for that much - all we needed to do was clean them. No probs, Handy Hire in Headingley solved that one for us dirt cheap too! We couldn't have been more chuffed. Inside you'll find an array of lovely old furniture and the odd antique, for seriously cheap prices. My advice is: if you're moving look here first. I've a few more things I need myself so I'm planning a re-visit very soon...

My friend and I were having a bit of a wander in Shipley, as we'd gone to buy some material from the nearby haberdashery, and decided to have a bit of a browse and some lunch. Literally just next to the market, which is a bit strangely situated down underneath pavement level, stood Up Market. As soon as you enter, once you've stopped staring at the delightful items in the window display, you'll be wowed by the stuff inside. It was a treasure trove of fantastic rocking chairs, awesome fire place accessories, quirky chairs, old school tables and writing desks. Mirrors and old picture frames galore. Sweet little boxes and an exuberance of other perfect knick-knack gifts lie within. We were left to browse without feeling pressured to purchase anything and as we looked around we noticed that the prices were so reasonable! I've not been to a more reasonably priced antique and vintage shop in Leeds - with the exception of Poverty Aid! Whilst there may be larger shops to browse, this one had some truly unique pieces at much less than expected. I'm hoping to slowly furnish my house here and can't wait to go back for another browse - it's a fantastic place!
