Alright, so we've had a few customers in today - 5 Nov 2025 - (870 words) - Jaynes Baby Bank
Alright, so we've had a few customers in today.
Not massive sales, but little bits of sales, but lots are gone because it's been itty-bitty stuff.
So I'm going to lower the prices again, right, because I've had about 25 bags of charity partners and businesses today in both shops that were open, right.
So we're not... we haven't... we haven't stopped our business and our charity partners contracts, you know, verbal contracts we have with them.
We've stopped the public from bringing stuff in.
And I had an old lady that turned up today with three bags that walked down the hill, so I took them off her because I don't want to send her back up the hill.
And I was on my own, I couldn't even carry him up there for her.
So, you know, I'm gonna lower the price again until we get on an even keel with the donations.
So anything that's put up for £50 will now be £50p tomorrow.
Anything that's up for a fiver will be a pound tomorrow.
So if you're looking for a bargain, ba-ba-ba-ba-bargain, right, then Jane is your... Jayne's shop is your best bet.
I told you the more you support me the cheaper I can bring it and you are supporting me.
But I ain't got no room no more for you to support me.
I'm out of room.
I need two houses, a furniture shop and probably two other shops now.
Come on, there's got to be somebody out there with cash to burn.
They can buy us this lot and we can just crack on and recycle.
So I'm gonna bring the prices down again.
Please don't worry, we will be on minimum 50% in January, if not 75%, right, to the end of January.
I'm not just gonna rip the stickers off the window and all the sale signs down either.
So don't panic, even if we're the last shop standing, don't panic, right, because if we're the last shop standing we'll have even more donations, won't we?
So we'd have plenty of stock to get shot off at decent prices.
So everything else 75% off, anything that's £5 will be a quid, anything that's £3.50 will be a pound, will be 50p, sorry, I'll charge you.
I can believe today the audacity of some people, right?
Danny was in the shop now the other day, right, and somebody now runs the charge, you come down right, I say, your mother this, your mother that.
I don't got the balls to say to my face.
Right, so Dan's like, crazy woman in the shop, blah blah blah, you know, whatever.
Anyway, I found out today now they've got to go, they've got to pack up their shit and go from their shop, right, because they've lied for over five years about being an actual charity and haven't paid no rent to the council.
The audacity of some of these people.
I think, oh my gosh, how many people have we actually helped and how many thousands have we had to pay into rent?
And I, you know, I know our landlords give us the best deal that they can afford, right, I know that, but how many thousands have we had to pay into rent and we're actually physically helping people and recycling like MFs over here, you know, like there is nobody who recycles as hard as us.
You can't even hold that, you know, you can't even say that because we fix stuff, we sew stuff, we wash stuff, you know, we even upcycle stuff and that was a lamp, but now we can turn it into a corner table.
You know, we'll have a go like, innit?
So the audacity of some people is just, and now you're going to be looking for somewhere to offload all your shit, so you might need to come and stroke my ego and I might tell you to bugger off.
I'll probably get it anyway because you'll take it somewhere and they'll say, oh Jane, this woman have turned up with all this stuff we don't own it and I'll probably end up with it anyway, but yeah, wind your neck in.
The amount of people out there that receive, I wouldn't want to upset the baby bank in any shape or form because the karma that comes back on these people is tenfold.
So is all our rent going to be paid back now and where's all the money gone that you've raised over those five years?
I left the silence there on purpose, but we'll have a little think of that one.
Where's the money gone that you raised for this charity that doesn't actually exist?
Why didn't the council check?
I mean, you know, probably down to human error, isn't it?
I should imagine, you know, and nobody is perfect.
We know that, but so you're going to pay back all this rent now or you're just going to off and leave all your stuff to recycle.
Off and leave me with all the stuff to recycle after you slag me off.
But there we are, a nice bit of karma for you, isn't it?
Enjoy your retirement.
