Advantages: Some great bargains to be found
Disadvantages: Some early starts!
I've only recently started going to car boot sales on a regular basis, and I must say it has changed the way I shop completely.
Being a student with a part-time job, I can sometimes find it hard to fund my shopping addiction! However, ever since I've started browsing local car boot sales for bargains I've found myself not only a lot better off but a lot more satisfied with my purchases. There's just something about finding a vintage replica Chanel 2.55 bag for 50p that makes you feel great!
That said, trawling car boot sales can be frustrating when you can't find anything you want. There are good days and bad days. I recommend walking around all the stalls at least twice to make sure you haven't missed anything. Don't be afraid to rummage through boxes or ask questions - and don't feel you have to buy something just because you've struck up a conversation with the seller!
If you spot something you like, always be prepared to haggle - the worst the seller can say is no and if they say yes, you get even more of a bargain!
Car boot sales are also great if you want to make a bit of extra cash as a seller. You might be surprised how many people are interested in your old junk! Try to find one that takes place in the afternoon if you have trouble with early mornings like me!
Summary: Great if you're looking for a bargain
