The 29-year-old spotted the jacket among the piles of trainers, sweatshirts and jeans and knew she couldn’t leave it behind.
Incredibly, the stallholder let the designer coat go for just 70p – a tiny fraction of its £650 retail price, as reported by What’s The Jam.
By the time she left, Becky, from Cheshire, had filled a giant bin bag with clothes for just seven pounds, but the coat was the crown jewel of the haul.
And after getting home, she realised just how lucky she’d been.
The Barracuta trench coat is a genuine designer piece, and similar preloved versions sell for hundreds online – making her find a serious steal.
