Today's charity shop bargain...

[ffutures]

...was The Addams Family, the DVD collection of the first B&W TV series, for £2. Once I'd confirmed they really meant £2 I bought it, of course, and chucked an extra pound into their collecting box for luck.

It's been a good week for this generally - yesterday I got Office 2004 for Mac [1] for £2.50 at another shop, where I also found one of the Harry Dresden books and A Storm of Swords part 2 for 50p each - I was late coming to the series and I've only just finished A Game of Thrones so hopefully I'll pick up the first part of Storm... before I finish A Clash of Kings. And on Monday I got the latest Temperance Brennan novel in hardcover for £2.

[1] I already have Office 2004 but I've used up two of three keys; I'm hoping that one or more of the keys on the one I bought is unused, which will be handy if I need to reinstall.

Outstandingly good bargains there, I'm jealous. They never have good DVDs in any of my local charity shops.

I get the feeling they increasingly check stuffs value on Ebay before it goes out into the shops, and anything with any value gets sold on Ebay instead.

Which, can't fault them for, they're there to maximise their money. I just wish there were more bargains to be had is all.

I was VERY surprised at the DVD, that shop is usually quite expensive, but the other stuff comes from a shop that is often fairly cheap, and I really have no idea why since it is in a prime location.
