Page 1 of Any booters out there?

Some of the best bargains to be had are at carboots there is a load of rubbish but there are a lot of cracking bargains to be had as a lot of bootsales are also market stall holders,just wondered if there was any booters out there and where do you go,we go to one at Cocksparrow lane Cannock,Hams Hall off the M42 and at Measham.

Last time I went to a car boot sale I bought a pack of 10 tennis balls for 50p and a spud-gun. Apart from those obvious gems, it was full of junk.

Some nutcase had a Westlife annual for sale with a £6 price sticker on it. He claimed it was a rare out of print edition. Too bloody right - it`s not going to be in print when it`s 2 years out of date!

Yes,you have to laugh at some of the prices some people expect to get for stuff and some of em have got such a load of rubbish you wonder what possessed them to pay £6 to stand there perhaps theyre lonely!

What gets me is that some people take a booty as their full time job !! :o (and probably signing on )

My mum done one once and she said that other stall holders were buying stuff from her a 7am and reselling on their stalls :o
The stuff people try to sell ya, I would get embarrassed to leave out from the dustmen !! :D
Coops


To all you bootsalers ..... just throw it away !!!

A spud gun!! COOL :D

I`m surrounded by Breakdancing strippers!

We regularly go to `The Big Boot` in oxford (well, abingdon for those who know it).

Its absolutely enormous. Last time we went i bought a box of king size rizla for 3 quid, some kitchen scales, a pestle and morter and a 5.1 soundcard. All for about a tenner.

And i got that tenner back when i found a mobile and rather than keep it i arranged to meet the guy and give it back and he gave me a tenner for my troubles (Boosting my `what goes around comes around` theory as seen on other threads
