The discerning shopper might even isolate some valuable, brand name items—you never know what you’ll find!
Along with the great selection of furniture, you can find a range of homewares at bargain prices. This could include crockery, cutlery, saucepans and fry pans, and even kitchen appliances such as microwaves and kettles. Availability is subject to what’s been recently donated.
