When did you last visit a charity second-hand shop (to buy, not donate)? What did you buy? Did you play dress-ups while you were there?

PS Congratulations to Neil Patrick Harris on his upcoming wedding.

  1. Just last week. I bought a hilariously tacky shiny silver shirt for $5. Guess what I’m wearing for Eurovision next year?!
