Express has partnered with her to showcase her favourite bargains each week.
This week’s favourite find was a vintage soil testing kit on sale at Reg’s Garden’s pop-up shop, which is currently raising money for CLIC Sargent Jersey.
Pictured: The soil indicator testing kit was on sale for £45.
“I’m fascinated by this,” said Fiona.
“I’ve never seen a soil indicator testing kit before.
“I wonder if I’d have more success in the garden if I checked out the soil before buying my plants!”
The kit was made by British Drug Houses (BDH), which was established in 1904.
The company existed until 1973, before it succeeded to BDH Chemicals.

The testing kit would have been used to detect how much lime content was in soil.
It contains test tubes and other vials, still with the original chemicals inside.
Express found a similar kit for sale online for £250, so this local find is a true bargain at just £45.
