Im catching up on my garden chores lots of industrial pruning , so now i can barely move ..lol ... So i thought now the bugs have come out id come in and talk to you lot. Whats to tell you ? Did another car boot yesterday , sold tons of 50p items , so many that i really can see the dining room floor now . It has been decided by the management that my daughter is hosting xmas this year so i really dont need to see the dining room floor , I will of course will now take advantage of this and the jumble sale season . Best sellers this year at the car boot have been plants , ive already started cuttings for next year . Ive sold tons of big size clothing , so i will invest at the jumbles , this week i sold lots of bodywarmers and fleeces, not for 50p but the dearest are a couple of quid , mens clothing sells better than womens mainly because i will never be a label whore , i just dont get it ? Then there is the book mountain , they were £3.40 for a whole bookcase full, i wanted a few books for myself the other few hundred have sold at 50p a book , then when im down to the dregs i give them away ..lol Surprise good seller of the year has been the two huge buckets of dug up bottles that were given to me by the porters at the auction because another buyer told them to chuck them in the skip , i also gained a lot of plants they saved for me as well, because people buy large batches of planters and chuck the plants in the skip as well. All the free stuff appeals to my recycling urge , we have even done a car boot sale for a local cat charity , because they have to pay these days to have the rags taken away at the end of the sale . Ive already got a stack of projects to stitch and repair for the winter keeps me occupied if i cant play outside , its going to be a cold one , himself has announced we are not having heating oil this winter because hes not paying that amount , but i can hide in my bedroom with my electric fire and he can freeze ..........think he may change his mind its not like he cant afford it , he just needs to stop buying rusty crap!!
Your tales of the car boot sales ae always amazing!
