Hello, I really hope you are having a good weekend.
In today’s post I am sharing where to go if you are like me love stationary and homewares.
Well the first place I look and I am so happy some have reopened, and that is looking in charity shops, which I checked first on Saturday, in the stores that were open, but this time round nothing caught my eye.
The one store I am getting desperate to go in is still closed and that is Paperchase. Items in there can be quite pricey but if you hold a Paperchase Loyalty card you can usually get some money off from your purchases, plus they often will have a sale on.
At the moment the stores I have been looking in, is The Works great for buying good priced stationary, books and craft items.
The other stores have been Poundland, TK Maxx, and Wilko’s
Here are some stationary items I purchased, along with some other items:
I love TK Maxx food cooling bags, I had one before that was thrown as I had used it so much, and saw this one and thought this would be perfect, especially as the school holidays come up, and I take my son out for the day.
This was priced at £5.99, and will be great for me also when I take some trips up London and want to save money by taking a packed lunch with me.
I also discovered these in The Works these highlighter pens for £1 and stickers which were £1 each, great to use in my new bullet blog planning journal.
In terms of homewares I bought this mug for myself as sometimes I like having a small cup of tea, and this was £3.99.
They had quite a lot in their collection, but this one caught my eye instantly and then I bought these notepads, and washi tape.
One was £2.50 so bargain price from TKMaxx, the other from The Works at £2.00 and some washi tape for £2.00.
I did purchase some other bits but I am going to save those for another blog post, as I am creating Henry a reward system to encourage good behaviour.
Anyway that is it for this blog, and will post again as of Monday.
It after all is not about how much something is, but what value it will bring to me, or help me towards my current goals and ambitions.
Have a good rest of the weekend.
