This is my second visit and I made sure I had a good nose around to see what I could find :p. I also manged to venture up into the loft where I found all sorts of vintage technology and furniture. Sadly I didn't have time to photograph it all because it was getting dark :/. I think a third visit is now in my books :D. I certainly haven't even scratched the surface on what could be found in here.

Hope you all enjoy my next set of pics:

Ah, you’ve outdone yourself, an instant camera, a telephone with a dial and Green Shield Stamps, you’ll struggle to get all of them on one explore again, I enjoyed it, Thanks
 
Green Shield Stamps! Now THAT IS a blast from the past! I remeber having to buy gallonss and gallons of petrol to fill a book and it's worth like an egg timer or something!

That's one serious hoard of stuff there bud! Nice one...

Tbh I've never heard of them haha. I just remember seeing some stamps and thinking they look interesting :). There's ALOT of old tv's lying around plus a few radio's, type writers and dansettes. Also a fully stocked blast from the past kitchen :exclaim:
 
How many different names were those credit cards in?:confused:
 
Excellent St33ly, it was worth the wait. What is a 'magic flash' then? Looking forward to trip 3!!
 
Great pics

,,,,,,,am an old git so remember the magic flash was to go on top of that Polaroid camera,,,,,

Green Shield stamps made your tongue go sticky,, and could be redeemed for goods from the dedicated shop,,,,,,,,, later on the stamps could be supplemented with some cash,, and later still the shops became known as Argos

Thanks for the opportunity to show my age

Cheers for the info on some of the items :D
 
Brilliant stuff again mate.

Maximus, you are a little confuddled, the Co-Op had their own stamps, very similar to Green Shield

Found these in a car at RAE Bedford (Thurleigh)

There used to be a site in Barry, Wales that had boxes and boxes full of green shield stamps, it must have been hundreds of thousands of them. If the scheme had still been going I would almost have been able to afford a plastic lemon squeezer! ;)
