AGE UK is cheaper than the others but this is a good article, however many people think Charity means its meant to be cheap for them! This is a misconceived idea that comes from the days of council estates are poor etc. Things can be expensive in charity shops due to there branding or age but yes they will always be cheaper than buying at an auction or a branded named shop.

Remember money goes to charity but charity is a business and like any business people have to maintain the working and running of the company so yes some on the money made goes to those who do commercial work. How else does someone thing a shop is run? Nothing is that free!
