paulshane Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 I needed oil for cooking, but oddly nowhere on site sells it. settled for butter in the end, which cooked my bacon nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dillyblue Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 Nothing forgotten as such but always love a rummage through the Oxfam shops. I have bought in the past two gorgeous blankets, a funky cardigan, a handmade cushion, a knitted bag, a whacky scarf, socks, a coat and some bunting! Looking forward to this year's find!!!

StoneCircle Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 My 1st Glastonbury was in 2005, arrived Wednesday, didn't take any cash other than what was in my purse. Hadn't realised the ATM's wouldn't open until Friday.* Luckily a trader did cash back for me. *This is no longer the case, ATM's are open from Wednesday these days.

pie_and_a_pint Posted May 17, 2017 Report Share Posted May 17, 2017 A pillow. Duct tape to fix my broken tent. Tampax. Paracetamol. A blanket. Tights. You can usually get anything you want. Last year I saw someone reading a copy of the Daily M*il that they'd obviously purchased somewhere on site... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucy92 Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 I got trainers one year as it was too hot and sunny for wellies from the oxfam shop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anders Krogh Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 Was going to start a new thread but... Can you get ice cubes and do they sell out when (not if) the sun shines? To answer the thread question - have bought some old boots from Oxfam from time to time, wellies seem to bite my ankles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC1996 Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 A pillow. Wellies. A toilet roll. I never take wellies though because I always tell myself it's gunna be a scorcher - regardless off days of torrential downpours before the festival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bisque Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 I forgot my tent pegs once. Fortunately camped opposite the camp store in dairy but lovely couple gave me loads they had "borrowed" over there adventures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andeeroo Posted May 19, 2017 Report Share Posted May 19, 2017 Hold the phone, people don't buy toilet roll on site do they? Can't you get it for free from the info points? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't you get it for free from the info points? You get them free from the lockups. Always leave a donation though and have a little chat to the crew.
