The shop at 251 Green Street was closed due to COVID-19 outbreak, but with the easing of restrictions the shop's management decided time was right to get back to business.

The shop, at first, opened on a limited basis, but now is back to its fulltime opening hours.

This means now is the time to get a bargain or two.

A shop spokesperson said they had received a heap of donations, including some handy and warm clothes for winter.

The spokesperson added the quality of the donations had impressed her.

Meanwhile, both the volunteers and regular clients were glad that the shop reopened.

"We have been really busy," the spokesperson said.

The shop is open Monday to Friday from 8.30am to 4pm and Saturday from 8.30am to 1pm.

Donations of suitable items are welcome and there is a simple way to work our if the donation is suitable - id you'd give it to a mate then it's perfect to donate
