Black and white photos of the people and their goods for sale from all nationalities looking for a bargain at a car boot sale held every Sunday at 1.00pm.

 

The car boot a vital part of many working class people's economy (in the UK), without them life would be a lot harder financially. They also stop a lot of waste as they are the last ditch effort to use something again and stop if from entering the waste system.

Car boots are also a lot of fun. It feel it is a bit like gambling or charity shop (thrift store) hunting - you never know what you may find. It could be sonething you exactly need and maybe at a rock bottom price. Or it could be something that is worth a lot of money and can be sold at a nice profit.

My wife is particularly good at finding just the right thing we need, maybe a particular piece of clothing our daughter wants to go with the rest of her outfit or just something useful for the house. You can literally find anything at a car boot
