IT can be luck of the draw as to whether you find any decent bargains in your local charity shop.
But one woman has shown how she hit the jackpot when she stumbled across a wedding dress in hers - priced up at just £10.
Ellie regularly snaps up epic bargains from boot sales, charity shops and flea markets.
And in a video on her TikTok page, Ellie explained that she couldn't resist buying the vintage gown when she saw it - despite not actually being engaged herself.
Then, when she tried it on, she also realised that it "fit like a dream".

"POV: The £10 charity shop wedding dress fits like a dream," she wrote over the top of the video.
The dress features a corseted waist, lace neckline and huge puff sleeves with ribbons and lace cuffs.
It also has a billowing skirt, which draws attention to Ellie's tiny waist.
"It’s giving Laura Ashley bridal," one person wrote in the comments section, adding: "So gorgeous!"
"EXACTLY what I thought! Half the reason I bought it!" Ellie replied.
"I’m so glad you bought it, it looks custom made just for you," another insisted.
"I’d literally wear this to Asda!" a third laughed.
"Everyone would refer to me as the weird bride lady.
"You look phenomenal!"
"You hit the jackpot!" someone else raved.

"I just found my dream Laura Ashley wedding dress in the charity shop this morning!!!" another wrote.
"But yours is even more iconic!!!"
"Hold that for the big day, whenever it comes!" someone else suggested.
"My dream wedding dress. I'm so sad, jealous and happy for you all at once," another sighed.
As someone else added: "Omg- you are killing this at the moment - amazing find!! Wowzer!"
In the caption for the video, Ellie referenced the fact that the dress looks so much like the one worn by Christine in The Phantom of the Opera musical.
"Christine has always been my dream role…" she admitted.
"You MUST cosplay as Christine now," another person wrote in the comments.
To which Ellie replied: "IT HAS TO BE DONE!"
