Help The Aged

My favourite charity shop on Copson Street — a street swarming with them! The main reason for this is the manner of the staff. I’ve occasionally been met with less than enthusiastic responses from other charity shops on that strip when off loading personal donations (be it clothes/​toys/​games). Help the aged have always taken such donations without any hint of malice (yes — can you believe I’ve given thousand yard stares by the proprietors of other stores when attempting to donate a bin bag full of decent donationsit’s not as though I’m selling crack to them is it?).
Besides at least Help the Aged belongs in this decade unlike the other relics further towards the Wilmslow Road end of Copson Street. Perhaps not quite Oxfam territory but the prices are far more reasonable that that shop.
They usually have a good set of clothes (usually females fare better for clothes in charity shops than men — their clothes are usually bequeathed from boredom whilst ours are off the backs of the recently deceased. Still, recycling is a good thing.)
Books and the usual bizarre items (David Hasselhoff Candlesticks for example) are all set out here.
Worth a visit for you bargain hunters out there.
