I've been on the look out for these recently, deciding that they would make excellent Christmas presents for a few people I had in mind, and this is the stash I came back with from the charity shops. Prices ranged from £3 to £5.95.

I find the charity shops are excellent hunting ground for these type of bags, and you'd be suprised at the range of styles you can choose from. Look for older, vintage styles, rather than anything more recent, as the older styles tend to be made from leather, rather than the nasty plastic versions you see on the high street.
Names to look out for are Tula, Jane Shilton, Suzy Smith, and of course good old vintage M&S.
If they need cleaning up a bit, use a baby wipe, and then I give them a rub with some of this handbag cream (yes, even your handbag needs a moisturiser!) that I bought from Jones the Bootmakers.
