A Collection of Clocks ?

I wanted to share with you my Master Five's collection of alarm clocks that he has been accumulating on our regular Op Shop visits.

The first one was purchased at the Salvos in Balwyn. It is a cow alarm clock and moos when the alarm goes off - not great at 2am!

The second clock was bought at an Op Shop in Kew. It is a very cute looking frog that croaks 'How Much is that Doggy (or should it be Froggy?) in the Window?' followed by 'Wake Up, Wake Up'.


His third clock is a Madagascar clock purchased at the Sacred Heart op shop in South Melbourne. This one just rings like any normal alarm clock.


His alarm clock 'collection' made me wonder - what else do fellow op shoppers collect ?

Balwyn Salvos

I bought my favourite grandma cardigan at the Balwyn Salvos earlier this year, but I never posted about it on this blog, so here I am now :) It was $3.50 due to their half price colour days, which was also nice. Balwyn Salvos is significantly less overpriced than Camberwell, Hawthorn or Abbotsford. There is a pretty good range of dresses and other clothing as well as some homewares and bric-a-brac.
