I used to love rummaging through a good car boot sale and did so regularly when I lived in England, but now I am living in Bonny Scotland I find that these wonderful inventions no longer seem to be in fashion. I do not know wether it is because the Scot, doesn't throw out old stuff or whether they just give their junk to charities instead but as far as carbooting is concerned they are few and far to be found. Which is a great pity as I really enjoyed the good old fashioned mooch. In Farnborough Englandshire there was a car boot sale every Sunday in the underground carpark opposite the council offices, this started as quite a small event growing in size to ...  Read the complete review

What's a Bootsale? ~~~~~~~~~~~~ It is what it says, a sale from the boot of your car, in America it would be referred to as a garage sale. All sort of things are sold at bootsales, from brick a brac, to electronics, clothes (some people even sell or advertise larger objects - these are often just printed on a sheet of paper and left on the table for people to see and enquire further) When you do a bootsale there is a fee to have a pitch / stall. This can vary from around £8 for school bootsales, to up to around £15 for bigger ones. The location of these are usually a school carpark/playground, an empty field, anywhere were the local council has spare land ...  Read the complete review

Its the worst carboot I've ever been to...All the junk stuffs are damn expensive,not organised properly,the entrance fee to buyers is too much...more like a market than a carboot,very rare to find items for £1 or 50p.sellers get damn angry if bargained,much much more better to buy brand new stuff than buying this junks here costing more,there are much better carboots elsewhere where you can get real bargain...I'd never go to this filthy worst carboot ever again..however sellers can benefit they can sell more expensive and still find customers,I went there just 5 mins early @ 11am yet I was forced to pay £2...

I know some people find it pretty boring and pointless to spend their time wandering around a field with loads of peoples' junk on it for hours on end when they could be doing better things but I find that it can be quite fun actually. And you can make some money out of it as well. Some people get rid of things for crazily cheap prices on car boot sales, especially if the item they've brought with them is big and bulky and going to take up a lot of space to get back home. My Grandad managed to buy a collection of plates and cups and things like that for £3 and sold them for £300 once. He got really good at finding bargains that he could resell. I managed to get some ...  Read the complete review

A good car boot with plenty of sellers and good selections of good.However, a word of warning: AVOID the snacks being sold by Chinese guy here.We bought some not realising until after eating them they are HALF A YEAR out of date. We have now all been V SICK, and not happy about this at all.They were V cheap, but do not be tempted. As the saying goes "If it's too good to be true..."Sally
