    I love car boot sales too but only in summer. Tend to stick to the charity shops in winter, it's warmer

    Have often thought about doing this! What sort of stuff do you buy to sell though? I'm a bit of an ebay queen in selling my own stuff but never sure WHAT to possibly buy to try to sell on!

    car boots do not seem to happen by me. Back in my old home we spent most wkends either buying or selling as kids and yet now they seem to be very few and far between.

    I love going to visit my parents during the warmer months I go with half a boot ful off essentials and come back with tuns of goodied ( that I then sneak intot he hosue so Hubby doesnt roll his eyes at me for buying more toys hee hee)

    Childrens toys mainly as they always sell well or nursery equipment. At the moment I have on swim vests, the floatation type. We bought 100 of them from Tesco as they are end of line and they are selling at 5 a week which is quick enough for us as its a decent profit.

    Im after some remote control tarantulas (SP) that Currys are selling off, they sell well on ebay at I can sell them at double what I will buy them for and still be the cheapest on ebay. Only thing is Currys can't tell me which stores have them
