Thrift / charity shopping

Hi guys

I got a wedding coming up.
And I refuse to pay for a brand new suit I'm going to wear once.
The last suit I wore was when I left school.

Is there any thrift or second shops in Manchester that specialise in suits?

I won't be using ebay or vinted for this.

Thanks in advance

    What about the m & s clearance outlet if it's still there?

    I bought a new suit since years ago for around £25

    Try the Oxfam website, they used to filter off good stuff so they could sell it nationally for more. Not sure if they still do.

    Vinted is also a good site to try.

    You may need to factor in the cost of dry cleaning, there is a good chance anything second hand will smell musty.

    Try the Lowry outlet in Salford Quays, it has a Next and M&S, I picked up a suit last year for around £55.
