    Looking good for her too, i can't wait, i think its the not knowing what your going to find (it could be nothing or it could be a real bargain), i find boot sales very adictive, once i have been to one i want to go to another, sometimes i go to 3 or 4 each weekend and bank holidays are even better.

    I hope you all find some great bargains this weekend.

    The forecast for the Midlands sounds promising with sunday being "glorious".We've got nights out planned all weekend so I won't be getting there too early but my tastes so bizarre I don't think I'll miss out.
    Good luck everyone. Hope to read about your bargains xx

    I am giving up with the charity shops as most of them are too expensive, there is on charity shop in a village near me which seems to have low prices and i have picked up a few bargains, but the ones in town are charging more than what you can buy it for new. I think i will stick to the boot sales where most items are 50p or 1 pound.
    One of the shops i went into last week had handbags priced at 20.00, yes they may have been designer but 20.00 for a 2nd hand handbag seems a bit expensive to me, also dresses priced at 15.00 (not designer), primark tops price at 4.50 (they only cost 2.00 in the shop).

    Lets hope the weather is nice for the weekend so i can get back to the boot sales.
    I'm with you on that one I too think Boot Sales are the way to go!!

    Well done on your bargains everyone.
    Unfortunately last weekend I didn't go to a car boot because I was just about to walk out of the door when the rain started pouring down. :(
