Was just about to recomend this myself, I forgot all about it till we drove past on the way back from heaton park the other week, just as it had finished as well.
Good thing about it is that its open till 3pm and not at a silly time like most car boots.Work like you don't need money,Love like you've never been hurt,And dance like no one's watchingSave the cheerleader, save the world!0 -
Thanks for all the suggestions above - it seems a shame that there is nowhere on the web that you can get a list of all car boots in a particular area for free

I posed the same question a while back on the Debt Free Wannabe forum...this is what they came up with:

Am too waiting to see if the rugby club on Houghend playing fields is on again this year as it always looks packed!!"Debt makes plans for you" - A quote from my friend Catherine. How true!0 -
Hi All
Just to update on previous posts - SMITHFIELD is really a market - full of traders - usually one or two car booters only and it cost £26
BOWLERS - again traders and not worth the bother.
SALFORD MARKET - £20 a stall very very busy but have to be ther eat 5.30am as other stall holders hold stalls for regulars.
WYTHENSHAWE HOSPITAL - every bank holiday - very good
CHELFORD and STYAL the best car boots for miles
WARRINTON opposite B&Q - Fantastic every Sunday from 15th April
I live in Bolton now and there is a car boot here every sunday at the market - its very very popular at £12 plus down the road there is another but mainly traders.
Trouble is most Council run ones dont allow you to sell new stuff. I have loads of stuff to do a car boot after moving but my local BOLTON MARKET wont allow me to sell NEW - these are just things that have been bought in error or bargains lol
Anyone know any others ?0 -
