Our bootsale was rubbish this morning so I'm really disappointed as I could have done with some extra sleep today - all I got was some more mini champagne bubble bottles for our wedding next year. Total spend ?1.50

I bought this vintage bag in a CS today £1.50 - Does anyone know what the metal logo/badge is? I have seen it before, but unsure what it is! I also bought a M & S leather messenger bag £2.50, very pleased with it as the one I already have is a little too big now I no longer need to carry nappies/bottles/teethers everywhere I go lol !

It's a shame about the LV brand. That design has gone the same way as Burberry check - synonymous with chavs! Although whereas the Burberry check is rather classic, that hideous white and neon pattern doesn't really cut the mustard for me. Although if I spotted it in a charity shop for 50p I'd snap it right up!
