Another dark, cold, cash-strapped, January. Fancy doing something different that won’t cost the earth? Clear out and clean up by getting involved at the free Cut Shuffle Deal clothing exchange. Bring all the slothes you want to stop – cleaned and complete bear in mind!
They’ll count your goods and you’re free to take away as many as you brought chosen from the racks of lovelies on display. Want to take away more than you’ve brought? You can buy items for £3 or £5 depending what they are and how generous whoever’s on the door is feeling. All proceeds generated this way will be donated to Greenpeace UK. As well as the great free clothes, theres loads of other free things going on. Especially if you’re in the company of non shoppaholics
Other free things going down
- Charity shop cartography: plot your favorite places for seeking out second hand gems and see some of ours on the massive map
- Get creative and ‘leaf’ us your impressions and ideas on the textile tree
- The I’ll pass present exchange – the perfect place for your unwanted presents. Bring it wrapped and ready and we’ll swap you on the spot
- Long and draw out – add your self portrait to the CutShuffleDeal washing line and tell us where your clothing came from
- Better than beer – badges rock so make your own memento to take away with the badge-making machine
- Sew your item needs a little adjusting? Use the sewing machine tailor your threads
- Want something? got something? identify your heart’s desire and what you’d happily give in return (keeping it clean, thanks) and see if anyone takes you up on the offer
