Mother’s Day is creeping up… 🌸
If you’re stuck for ideas (or left it a tiny bit late 😏), we’ve got plenty in store that won’t break the bank.
From quirky little finds to brand new bits and pieces, there’s something for all sorts of mums — the practical ones, the sentimental ones… and the “don’t need anything” ones 😉
Pop in and have a wander — you might just find something a bit different.
As always, keeping things affordable because we know it all adds up 💛

Hi all 😊
We know a lot of people are feeling the pinch at the moment, especially with petrol prices creeping up — and that knock-on effect hits so many small businesses too.
The good news is… we’re not putting our prices up.
Like our clothes, most will still be $4.
Bins of good kids clothes will still be from 50c each.
Etc etc... you get the picture.
We’ll always do our best to keep things as affordable as we can for everyone. Just a wee reminder though, we are a privately owned business, so we still have bills, rent, and taxes to cover — unlike some charity shops.
That’s why we really, really appreciate your donations — they help us keep prices low and the racks full for everyone 💛
Thanks so much for the continued support, it truly means a lot to us.

Hi, well we never know what is going to turn up in the shop!
I knew as soon as I saw him that he was a keeper 😍🫣
He had a palate deformity which makes him look kinda like a moose I think
Still working on a name..

Hi guys, thought I'd try something a bit different — my first ever video of the shop in all its glory! Be kind… video skills are clearly still a work in progress 😆
I also didn’t realise quite how long it was until after I finished filming so hang in there… turns out there’s a lot to show in here!
Let me know if you would like me to do some more videos of the shop, I'll try to get better with my video skills, not as long next time now that you have had the grand tour of the shop, and show you more specific items, what's new in, things like that? Let me know in the comments!

Hi guys, a rough day out there today, feels like a toastie and soup day, if so, we have you covered ;)
Well stocked with some really nice crystal pieces, jewelry, trinkets, craft stuff, pottery, tools and much more.
Restocking constantly so keep popping in!
