Essex lazybones bootfayres/sales
Hi all,
My sister and I have A LOT of clothing / books / records to get shot of and are looking for a bit of money also, does anyone know where a 'decent' boot sale would be in the South Essex area on a Sunday, pref a lazy bones as well. We have bags of quite good quality stuff so dont want to go to one that is mainly antiquities really
Can anyone offer inspiration?

Not sure about lazybones type sale but the large boot sale at Nevendon roundabout, Basildon is always very popular
If you can check out Standard Recorder or Evening Echo or similar papers for details if you live in the area0 -
the lazybones one at Rettendon is VERY popular and has lots of different stuff there, its been on tv a couple of times so u get people coming from all over
i belive u have to get there to set up around half ten but am not 100% sure of that timeWhen you know better you do better0 -
Try googling 'carboot junction' and search your area, there's loads around essex, romford, basildon etc..0

Good one in Boreham, just off A120

Hi all,
Just wanted to bump this and ask if anyone knows if the Rettendon lazy bones boot sale is still running? Can't find it anymore on carboot junction, and as haven't done one there since last year, want to make sure they're still doing them.
They used to be open Bank hols as well so was considering pitching on Monday, or next Bank hol Monday..
Any clue?
Thanks,
