    carbootcrazy- I do a boot sale or two a year and they are always £12 per stall here (SE London)!! :eek:

    Wow:eek:. We have a grumble if we find one locally that's £6 instead of the usual £5:rotfl:
  • Wow you guys are lucky, my last boot sale was last summer and we were paying £12, although I do live in London :rotfl: - really must move somewhere cheaper!

    Last minute eBay bid so another 76p PayPal to add to total :j Have to deduct postage but as I already have stamps shouldn't be much, will update sig when posted :D

    Happy earning all x

    Morning all, it's been quiet my end as i've been staying at a family friends for a party!! I haven't had time to put in the hours for my Facebook sales however I have been hitting my daily goal on SB :D

  • Thanks, Lynne, found it now but nothing I [STRIKE]want[/STRIKE] need to buy:(

    Listed quite a lot of small stuff on eBay yesterday and have watchers on a few and initial bids on 3 of them. Auctions don't end until Sunday so keeping my fingers crossed. Won't make much money but it's less clutter to annoy me:j.

    Listed 17 books on Amazon last night. My sales have been non-existent for weeks so I've also started going through my current inventory and lowered a few prices by a few pennies. Will get on with the rest today as car boot selling has been shelved for today:(. It's the 1p Amazon book sellers that are spoiling it for the rest of us. They must be making losses on each sale when postage is taken into consideration as some of them are very heavy books!

    Have a good day everyone:beer:

    I'm Essex too, It's £12 a car here and £15 for a van!! Tables and clothing racks must be supplied by yourselves, Incidentally if anyone is in the central Essex area and wouldn't mind lending me some clothing racks so i could do a bootsale I would be really grateful (saves me spending £8 on the cheapest ones in Argos)

    I should thank my lucky stars then that it's still only £5 round here:j

    Beware the cheapo clothes rails. I had 2 from Argos (special offer 2 for £15;)) and although they looked nice and seemed quite sturdy it didn't take much for them to topple over. The field I was on wasn't quite level and it was a very windy day. Darn things toppled over a couple of times fully laden with freshly washed and ironed clothes:eek:. Caught them just in time on several other occasions. Nightmare morning! They're OK if you weight them down but I didn't have anything suitable with me that time as I was just selling clothes and fabric:(.

    Yeah i had reserved two from Argos, the 7.99 ones, but ideally i'd need 5 ( I've bought LOTS of clothes from the charity shops :p and i don't fancy forking out the best part of £40 on 5 clothing rails i'd probably only use twice a year!!! :eek:

    Azzzaa- I agree with carbootcrazy. The Arg0s cheap ones topple over really easily. Definitely not suitable for boot sales imo. Had to spend most of the time holding it up!
