Any Car boot bargains today??

Hi
I got a couple of Halloween outfits for 50p each and a little girls monsoon dress for 2.00 (which i'm going to put on ebay).

The best bargain i got was a few wks ago i picked up a little girls fancy dress for 20p(was to embarresed to refuse when she said i could have it for 20p thought it would do as a duster it was so screwed up!!:rotfl:) washed and ironed it and it sold for 20.00:T.

    I found the kind of stall I enjoy browsing through. One full of stuff from a grandmas house. The kitchen equipment you can pick up is priceless. Got my first Sabatier knife, beautiful. 20 pence, of course.
    Best of all was the weather though!

    I got lost trying to find a car boot on Saturday Morning that I hadn't been to before ... didn't find it and went home.

    This is a bargain: it saved me buying alot of junk! :D
  • Yes it was a glorious day (beautiful today too).

    I actually picked up loads of stuff at the litter bins when, at the end of the day, genuine sellers were throwing their unwanted stuff away. Unfortunately I didn't move fast enough to pick up a heavy anchor complete with rope and an old Singer sewing machine in a lovely case.

    Hopefully nobody I knew was watching me scavange!
  • I managed to pick up a Royal Doulton horse for £2 and a signed River Cottage Year book for £5 - Ebay here I come :-)
