    We also have them all year long. The best stuff goes early, but stuff that's left often goes cheap towards the end as many people would rather have a little cash for it than take it home again

    Can any of you lovely people tell me when the car boot sale season begins again? And does anyone have any hints for getting bargains?
    Crikey, you're honoured LOL - your post has remained here for nearly two hours! When I began a thread to discuss Boot Fairs 2006 the thread was moved within 5 mins!! :rotfl:

    I'm told boot fair threads don't belong in OS anymore :( The thread for this year (and the reasons I'm told we can't discuss boot fairs on OS) can be found here:-

    when I've walked around carboots I've been amazed at some of the things people actually seel
    probably the best thing is to take it all and go to the biggest bootsale in your area
    where the most people will view your goods
