Busy, Busy, Busy Boot Sale

 Last Saturday's car-boot sale was huge and extremely busy.I found a few useful bits which came from the boxes of four different house-clearance people.

The bundle of cards which  include three 'Sister' Happy Birthday cards [I only have one sister and there was one in my card box already, so very well stocked now!], more than a dozen charity Christmas cards and two packs of postcards for my scrapbook were £2.50 and all from one seller.

From another box I found the large book on the right which has colour plates of decorative tiles through history for 50p, it was bought for cutting up for my scrapbook but it seems too good to cut up so now I don't know what to do with it.......back to a boot-sale or to a charity shop.

The Charles III Coronation commemorative tin was also 50p, I didn't buy it for the tin but because it had 40 tea-bags sealed inside. Now the tea bags are in my tin and the Charles tin is in a box ready for when I sell at a boot-sale.

 I'm not a big soup eater but the pack of 4 cup-a-soups was 50p and they've got a very long date so will do for winter.

Luckily early Saturday morning wasn't too hot - after that the temperatures here - like most of the country - just went up and up until records for May highs were broken.

Back Tomorrow

  2. You have some lovely things there. The postcards are lovely and the book looks very interesting too. It was far too hot for us to go out over the weekend. I admire your dedication to boot sales! Stay cool!
