Better Believe it Bargains in Bridge of Allan

Bridge of Allan

Chest, Heart & Stroke Scotland Boutique - 68-70 Henderson Street

The Bridge of Allan shop is 1 of 32 shops in Scotland alone and is my favourite charity shop to shop in for three reasons.

1.       The interior is far from the norm of a typical charity shop, with stylish back and white flooring, vibrant purple walls and inviting atmospheric music playing in the background; the shop has good vibes and is very easy on the eyes.

2.       Everything on the shop floor is of good quality and included all the well-known brands. The town is home to many students from the University of Stirling but also must be the home to women with style who are generous and donate.

3.       Charity shops can usually have the vibe of a jumble sale, with sizes and type of clothing all over the place, however this shop has a great floor plan. I would describe the floor plan as a mixed floor plan with rails, displays, shoe racks and scarfs in little drawers.  However, most importantly everything piece of clothing in the shop size order with labelled coat hangers, my favourite!

Strathcarron Vintage Charity Shop

Just off the main road in Bridge of Allan the charity shop sits in a low footfall area, but still seems to generate a lot of business. The store sells vintage clothing and quirky bits and bobs, so is always enjoyable to go in and have a look around.
