Queuing in front of a charity store to make sure you get a good deal can seem overkill.
But if you’re looking for designer items at a fraction of the usual prices, it might be worth visiting Oxfam’s premier supermarket.
The huge store – 12 times the size of most Oxfam stores – carries luxury goods including a Swarovski crystal necklace, Gucci shoes and Victoria Beckham branded clothing at discount prices.
The 18,500-square-foot store, located on the outskirts of Oxford, awaits hordes of enthusiastic shoppers when it launches today. And the hypermarket also sells parts online for people around the world to browse.
A Swarovski crystal necklace, still in its original box, is priced at £ 250, while similar necklaces on the jeweler’s website sell for over £ 700.
