Red Hill Salvos Op Shop

It's my local op shop and so I pop in every so often. The last time I went, there was change in the air – someone had taken the bull by the proverbial horns and sorted stuff out – and really sorted it. The trouble with op shops is that often there is so much stuff you cant really see what is on offer.
You need time to rummage through to find the hidden treasures which you hope are there. For most of us, living fairly busy lives, this leisurely approach is not always an option so when someone does all the hard work before hand it is worth noting it and talking about it.
Her name is Che and she was a stay at home mum but the kids are older now and she is volunteering and enjoying being back in the swing of things. She has brought small but noticeable changes to the set up of items for sale, which makes them eye catching and interesting. You are immediately drawn to the combinations, be it for the items on display or the colours that predominate.
The Salvos is perfect for a lazy morning when the weather is cooling and you have that time to indulge a little in what I call Affordable Me Time. So check it out and see what grabs your fancy. At the same time, clear out your cupboards and take your unwanted items along to them. They might just be someone else's treasures.There is plenty of parking and there are buses that take you to Waterworks road which is just round the corner from Glenrosa.
There is a substantial and underlying good cause to this Op shop which justifies most of the affordable goodies brilliantly.
