Boot sale Mothers Day...Busy or quiet?

Hi all
Hubby was planning on doing a boot sale Sunday, but I had forgotton it was Mother's day. He thinks it will be busy as people will go out, but i'm not so sure. I don't want to waste the pitch money or my Mothers day for nothing.
Next week they are changing his company car from an estate to a smaller car which is another reason he would rather do it this weekend.
What do you think guys?

Hi zippy
I have the same dilemma and have decided to go for it - maybe there are lots of mothers who will want to go to a boot sale for their Mothers' Day treat!Total debt: 1 January 2007 £[strike]49,387.79[/strike] 1 January 2012 £[STRIKE]19,312.85[/STRIKE] 1 August 2012 £11,517.620 -
Thanks both
I've just checked the weather forcast and its good....so yes think we will go for it. I will also be glad to get rid of the stuff as its all piled up in our bedroom.
Lets hope we have a profitable day :beer:

snap! I have to do it really as the pile in our bedroom is blocking access to the wardrobe. Let's hope the buyers are out in force. I'll think of you as I get up at six.....Total debt: 1 January 2007 £[strike]49,387.79[/strike] 1 January 2012 £[STRIKE]19,312.85[/STRIKE] 1 August 2012 £11,517.620
