I visited the UK’s cheapest charity shop where EVERYTHING is £1 or less
A SAVVY second-hand shopper has visited the UK’s cheapest charity shop and found everything was £1 or less.
The small thrift store is located in Wavetree, Liverpool and bargain hunters travel miles to visit.
A TikToker headed over to the store to check it out for herself and share the trip with her followers.
Becky Chorlton who posts content under the name beckysbazaar said the shop, called “Reloved”, is the “cheapest charity shop in the world”.
She told The Sun the affordability of the shop is a 10/10, she said: “This is the cheapest charity shop in the world, everything is basically £1 or less which is crazy!”
The building, which is recognisable by its colourful mural, is relatively small but Becky said it is “jam-packed”.
She said: “The shop is fairly small but it’s jampacked and they have different rooms out the back for kids wear and men’s wear.
“The clothes aren’t amazing quality – a few of them have issues/ marks and stains but nothing a good wash can’t sort!
“It’s definitely worth a visit if you’re in the Liverpool area! It’s so much fun exploring and rummaging in this charity shop!
Posting her visit to the platform she took fellow bargain hunters on a tour, showcasing some of what it has to offer.
As she first headed into the shop she points the camera at a price list on the wall which lists the individual costs of various women’s clothing.
Skirts, tops, blouses and trousers are all priced at just 50p, whereas dresses and shoes cost £1.
Throughout the video Becky shows various different items and their prices too.
One of her finds was a mug for just 50p, and a bag also for 50p.
She picked up a £1 GAP hoodie and some shoes also for £1, another bargain she picked up for a Loony Tunes toy for just 50p.
A particularly cheap item she found was a stylish necklace for just 20p.
She also managed to find a pair of Urban Outfitters short for £1 too.
The video was met with over 140 comments from excited shoppers who were eager to try the giant store out for themselves.
One wrote: “I need to visit, where is this magical place?”
Another said: “All charity shops need drop their prices like this, I hope they do well.”
A third commented: “Oooh I’d love to spend hours on there.”
Whether you’re shopping for yourself or looking to resell it’s important not to get swept up in the excitement – remember it’s only a good deal if you were going to buy an item in the first place.
Don’t just pick something up for the sake of it, and always remember to have a look at prices elsewhere beforehand to get an idea if it’s the best deal.
Also, if you do visit a store why not try out the Google Lens app to compare prices of the item you’re looking at in the moment to make sure you’re getting the best deal.
