A CHARITY shop worker accidentally sold a customer's cycle after she had left it beside "for sale" items outside.

A woman who was shopping at Katharine House Hospice charity shop, in Bicester, had left her cycle unlocked outside.

While she was looking around the shop on Saturday, September 1, a couple came in and asked how much the cycle would cost. A volunteer had just put a 'for sale' sign on another cycle outside and said it was £10.

The wrong cycle was pushed away and now the shop is appealing for the couple who bought the cycle to bring it back.
