Ames you need to go for those of us who can't get out today :rotfl:

Busybody .... being a newbie here I'd love to hear what bargains you got ???

I've decided not to go, I've got chronic fatigue and don't think I'm up to it today. Besides, I'll have more money next week!

We went to an indoor carboot in quite a posh village this morning but it was a bit of a let down, i had my 2 boys with me and found it very difficult to rumage and there was only about 12 people selling! hopefully will get to one this afternoon on my own!

jtz

phoned up loads of car boots this morning and they said they're closed now for the winter!:eek:
managed to get to a small one with about 20 stalls and bought:
BNWT Primark shoes for £1
Anna Sui purse-absolutlely gorgeous and in very good condition £1.50
Fake Gucci( but looks real) purse in black for £1.50

Hopefully I can get to one next week really early; its always hard to get up and leave the house early in the morning with my family; they're all lazy sods!:p

hope everyone else has been lucky in their finds too!;)

Another nice find from the local hospice garage sale yesterday :j

King size bed quilt/cover/throw thingy with matching cushions, from Skopos, for £4. As new but will be doing the 'grape treading, wash in the bath' rigmarole on the next fine day. So pleased as it goes really well with my unusually coloured bedroom carpet....... been looking for ages for something in the proper shops

Really getting into this chazza shop malarkey again....wonder what this next week will bring

Some bargains over the last couple of days -



New Danimac raincoat found in Shelter charity shop for £12.50. It's complete with the zip in warmer and spare buttons.

Pure new wool Country Casuals "Russian" red jacket £6.50



I love the frogging on the back. My grandmother embroidered ornate robes for the church and I think that's where I get my love for embellishments on clothing.



Some cute pink leather sandals £3



Brand new Wallis floaty layered top for £5



Lucky four leaf clover bracelet £1. Will wear on all future hunting trips!



Little dark pink leather and suede evening bag £3.50 from Cats Protection shop



And finally, a leather belt with rhinestone buckle - £2



Am fast running out of wardrobe space!

A little teacup, saucer and teapot which took my fancy, I think because of the shape of the cup. £3
