Yes, we thought it was hard to believe too.
So we wandered in. And it is indeed a free shop.
People donate stuff – clothes, books, toys, food, anything really.
And you can simply pop in and commandeer what you want.
Obviously not everything is quite up to scratch.
Can’t see Sam Brookes wandering in on a Sat afternoon for a browse.
But it’s quite a mad place and worth a visit.
It’s on Commercial St opposite The Commercial Tavern (a little bit further up the road).
It occurred to us that with all the crapola – er, valuable but superfluous treasure – we have hanging around W+K Towers unclaimed since the move into the new building, this shop would really appreciate it.
So instead of binning it we'll try to pop down there with some of it.

So, visit FREESHOP and you may be able to pick up some lovely W+K memorabilia for free.
Quite literally priceless.

In the grey corner: Bogusky. In the white corner: Davidson.
Never mind the awards, the business triumphs, the accolades of clients and colleagues, the respect and admiration of the industry. Right here is where we see how they really measure up: the Big Afro vs the Crazy Clown.
I think the accessorisation with big specs maybe just nudges Tony ahead.
