The Salvation Army

"Best charity shop in Edinburgh with the best windows!! Vintage section is my favourite and always find some hidden gems, but 50p book offer, kids clothes 10 for £1 and £1 sale section (I have found loads of stuff every week) definitely keeps our wardrobes full! Staff are great and always singing!! Definitely worth a visit ❤️❤️❤️"
