Cuppa For Cancer - tomorrow Thursday,25th May. Just $5 for home-made scones, jam, cream and a cuppa. Donate at the Op Shop this week, if you are not able to a end on the morning.

We are selling lovely warm baby clothes and winter warmers for our toddlers this week.

The nies grow so fast that many of the garments for sale have never even been worn. Our stock for the li le ones has been carefully checked before being put out our into our infants sec on.

That sec on is right in the centre ves bule of the Op Shop, on the right-hand side as you come in.

Our scarf display is quite overwhelming with such a variety of beau ful rainbow of colours. Some scarves come with matching beanies.

Our beanies come in all sizes from newborn to the outdoor labourer size. Bed socks will help you get a be er night’s sleep on these frosty nights. Woolly sox for your boots are also available. Hand-kni ed socks are so much warmer than the ﬁne manufactured variety.

Overalls or some say ‘boiler suits’ make outdoor work not quite so harsh. We have a good array of these garments, also in a wide range of sizes. Keep your hardto-wash clothes clean as you labour on dirty jobs. See you at Cuppa for Cancer.
