S5 E03 The Good Op Shop

Tiffany Inglis started an op shop 18 months ago and all she wanted to do was save the world one pair of very cheap second hand jeans at a time. 

Not only is the Good Op shop keeping A LOT of stuff out of landfill, but money raised there is then given to worthy environmental causes. If that is not enough to convince you it is a ‘good’ op shop – then wait til you hear about the educational programs and recycling initiatives they have started.
