I walked away with a sofa which cost me £60 and it was really good quality with no wear in it what so ever. I also bought a 36" tele which cost £25. For £6 I could get delivery but with them only able to deliver on days that I worked I decided for the ... more

I went in to barnardos today after moving house at the weekend and due to the fact I can't really afford top notch things i decided to go in to see if I could find a few things.

Would you be as suprised as Me if I said it was infact the UK.I find that very disturbing to hear. My personal opinion is as follows... That it just goes to show that We have a government that is totally out of touch with reality.Or if they are in touch with reality they are choosing to ignore it. They say that children need food of good nutrient value,by means of a healthy diet.All children should eat vegetables,fruit,drink lots of milk,but do they ever stop to really think what the cost of ...
