UK Charity Shop "Fill a Bag" Event: Shoppers Score Designer Finds for Just 40p Each
Charity Shop Hosts "Fill a Bag" Event, Shoppers Find Designer Bargains for Pennies A recent "Fill a Bag" event at a Care UK charity shop in the United Kingdom drew crowds eager for incredible deals on pre-loved clothing and shoes. The event, held to celebrate the shop's two-year anniversary and clear stock for new donations, allowed customers to fill an entire bag with items for just £10. One shopper, known online as Becky's Bazaar, documented her experience, revealing that she and her mother managed to fill three large bags with various garments. Among their notable finds were a Vivienne Westwood shirt and a Calvin Klein Jeans sweatshirt. By maximizing space in their bags, they calculated that each item cost them approximately 40 pence. The event, described by participants as both "crazy and chaotic" yet highly rewarding, offered a unique opportunity for individuals to refresh their wardrobes sustainably and affordably. Shoppers were encouraged to dig through bins and browse rails to discover hidden gems. The success of such events underscores the growing interest in second-hand shopping and the value it provides to both consumers and charitable organizations.
