Not sure I'd want one of those for even 15p. Each to his own I suppose

How about 10p, JJB?
It would be hopeless for storing coffee. The head bit is a really tight fit on the body - there's no rubber seal, just a grating of earthenware on earthenware. I expect a charity shop will be the lucky recipient.

No takers at 10p either, although someone out there will love it, I'm sure. 
There's one for sale at £10 on fleabay

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/374567452506 I think people try their luck and are left living amongst a ton of rubbish. I love a secondhand vase - often pop in a local "junk" shop and also love little villages with antique and collectibles. I pick up some lovely items and then enjoy looking at the outrageous prices people ask for them on ebay and marketplace - they never sell and are often up for months, then are drastically reduced when they realise how much they are really going for.

How right you are Scarlet. You're just like my pal, she loves a charity shop and trawls the knick knacks, she spots a bargain at 50 paces, whereas I, on the other hand can't see one if it bites me on the bum, but I do love the books

I took part in a Herb Tea swap. I gained 6 part used boxes of teabags and I gave a jar of Jasmine and green tea (too flowery for me) and a couple of different sorts of tea bags that I thought the recipient might like to try. Oddly, we both swapped the same "Sleep" teabags.
