The Op in Opportunity.....

Some great op shop finds have been emerging from this weeks This is..... but for those bloggers who are not from Australia or N.Z. "Opportunity Shop" may be a mysterious term.
"Made by Milla" calls her Charity Shops "chazzer" shops although she's not that fond of the term.( I'm not particularly fond of it either as I'm married to a "Bazza" and it sounds so Okker.)
Go and check out her gorgeous fabric and mirrors.
"Miss Frugality"actually asked what an op shop is. What is the Opportunity offered? I have heard a few interpretations but I'm actually up for suggestions.....
Plenty of opportunity to get a bargain?
The money raised gives charities the opportunity to help others?
You walk in with nothing planned and opportunities present themselves?These guys offered them selves up to me today , so I took the opportunity and bought them home!
