69a – Liverpool
For an ethical double-whammy, and to find something truly unique, 69a is a hotspot for cool vintage clothing and antiques. Though, if you send a loved one here for V-Day shopping, your relationship might have to take a back seat as they’ll fall in love with this vintage treasure trove!

Rare Mags – Stockport
Admittedly, you wouldn’t want to receive a copy of Woman’s Weekly as a gift. And if you have then get out, get out now. But, there is such a great range of indie magazines to choose from in Rare Mags if you’re an avid article reader and swoon over good quality paper. We’re in love.
