People are currently struggling to make ends meet, which means more customers are turning to second-hand goods to decorate their homes. And savvy shoppers can find beautiful items at a fraction of the cost of buying things new.
We decided to head down to SOFA Project on West Street in Old Market to see what the charity shop had to offer.
The main room is a large open space with a wide range of different furniture at varying prices. I first looked around the sofa section where I found a three-piece leather-look sofa set, a two-seater sofa with two armchairs for £90. While not the most chic-looking sofa it would definitely do the job and looked in good shape.
