Belco round-up

The YMCA at Belconnen has half price on everything in store, so if you're after an orange and brown Monier crockpot with the original recipe book, it's yours for $5.

Vinnies has expanded their clothing racks, and they've got heaps of kids rash vests if you want to get in early for summer.

And there's a "silent sale" at the Salvos - I didn't find out about it until I asked how much the old magzines were. If you buy one of their reusable bags for 95 cents you can fill it with books for free. Bad luck if you wanted the 25 Gourmet/Gourmet Traveller magazines from the late 1980s and early 1990s, as I've greedily snaffled them.
