Boots

 So i got dragged to Stickney at 6 in the morning yesterday , beautiful sunny morning not a bit of wind . Did i spend a fortune ?  it was dire , tons of toy stalls , 3d printing , lots of clothing and market stalls but the actual car boot stalls were pretty naff  managed to spend a couple of quid on 2 ramekins and a couple of storage tins walked bleedin miles and achieved only a headache for my efforts . Himself hit the nail on the head when he pointed out there only selling what hasnt sold on Vinted. The house will however reek of onions as i bought a whole net full...lol

Rinse and repeat when i should have had a lay in , but no im awake and ready to be getting on at 5am Sunday morning . Toddled off to meet my daughter at Metheringham , much better quality still bought one thing a posh food flask for himself to take to fishing and half a dozen french beans though my daughter got a bag full of weird stuff


What i think is happening with the charity shops and boot sales is that all the filming and bragging has killed them . A women who bought a large Wedgwood toilet boil for £5 off me has it listed at £75 on Vinted or Ebay , i dont mind I have its sister which i wanted and that one was surplus to my requirements and i sold it for way more than i paid , but bragging and laughing about it on You Tube, well. Wouldnt mind but she wanted to haggle me down at the time ..AAARRRGGGHHH Theres another woman who buys from charity shops and then says how shes made £300 from  £20 shes spent in the shops shes filmed on You Tube and then moans how stuff is getting far to expensive to make a big profit. I specifically  sell to resellers , i paid the mortgage for years with ebay . Now ive retired from that side of it till we get our mother problems sorted out , im only car booting to stop a build up of crap in case we have to move in a hurry , im well aware of the value of things 

Sorry if the fonts are weird its nothing im doing it just a Blogger glitch
