When giving to charity shops, shop around! different value for giving
This theme is continued at the helpful site Intelligent Giving
Charity shops are great! Support them! Buy from them! Support charity shops

Doing good includes such things as not wasting food did you know?
Charities and Good Causes can make money by means of Buy.at Webshops*. Worth looking into.
