I freaking love them!
What do you think?
Is it a girl thing?
(My hubby just sits in the car rolling his eyes...)
What has been your best score?
A friend of a friend is having one with all their baby stuff.
I just picked up the whole shebang practically for under $100.
All in excellent shape too.

I just got a gas grill and a four regular lawn chairs and a recliner. Which is nice, cause I have four roommates, all of whom want to grille out a lot this summer. Now we can do that and all have a seat, me in the recliner of course. |

no you're right Vovat. An ex has been shown the door because she pronounced garage as "g'rarj

Be careful. More relationships break up over differing dialects of the English language than anything else.
Or am I thinking of money?

Boots are things parking nazis put on your car so that you can't move it until you pay their ticket. Like on the Simpsons.

Wouldn't it make more sense for a boot to be at the bottom of a car? You don't wear boots on your back, do you?

Isn't a hood something chavs wear on their heads when robbing grannies in bonnets?

It's both that and a part of a car?

It's our language. We call things what we want to call them. Then you try to fuck it up.

Boot sales seem more efficient for the buyer, but then do boot sales often have big things like desks, bookcases, and ancient pairs of skis that have been sitting in the garage for 20 years. |

I guess the grass is always greener. I was thinking there was something cooler about a car boot. I grew up going past peoples houses with stuff for sale infront, or literally in the garage. |

I was just thinking recently, after watching Ghost World, that I wish we had garage sales here. I know we have car boot sales but I think there is somethign cooler about walking past someone's house and seeing some stuff for sale. It's more random so finding a bargain is even more of a nice surprise.

I want to go to a car boot sale, it's annoying leaving the parental home sometimes because I can't nag my dad into driving me. On the plus side he can't give me the "I'm going to slap you madame in a minute if you don't shut the hell up" look anymore.
I bought a superb elvis mirror from a boot sale once, and a hideous orange kaftan I used to swan around the house in. I have a big candle in the shape of a tortoise on my bookshelf I got from a jumble sale, I like random sale crap. I've gotten loads of books and CD's and terrible retro wear that my mum used to despair of. Sigh... happy days
Top tip to the parents, straight from my father this, if you feel like haggling the price send a kid, the people find it hard to haggle with a kid. My dad used to send us up to do it all the time.
Ever done one? I have helped my mum do a couple, the way the people swarm as soon as you open the car! my!
I hope that I will live to see you undress |

This just begs for more details, VoVat!
I used to have a pair of black shorts with a really narrow strip of cloth at the bottom. I really have no idea why they were like that, but I do know my dad bought them for me at a yard sale.
