Despite the weather yesterday morning, we decided to get up early and have a wander round our local car boot sale and I’m so pleased we did as we got some real bargains.
In fact, I’m so pleased with my bargains, I decided to join in with the lovely @missielizzieb’s Magpie Monday so I could show off share them with you all.
First up, I managed to find two lovely dresses for Miss Frugal from Next for £1.00 each, the pictures don’t do them justice at all as they are gorgeous and look lovely on. We also got a job lot of Lego with five mini figures in it for 50p and a brilliant game marble maze game that we’ve had loads of fun with this afternoon, also for just 50p. On our way out we walked passed a lady who was marking everything down and we managed to get 13 cuddly toys for £1.00 – this included two hand puppets and a few brand new teddies.
I know what you’re thinking, they’re OK bargains but nothing amazing. Wait till you see what else I got!
I got one of those V Tech Kiddizoom cameras in excellent condition for £4.00, a pair of shiny pink Birkenstock sandals for £3.00, a Batman wallet for Master Frugal for just 20p and what else did I get? Oh yes, a pair of GHD straighteners for just £4.00! And they’re pink.
See why I’m pleased with myself 😉

How funny, the dress on the left I got in the charity shop I volunteer in. We were going away for the weekend and my DD wore it on a night out while we were away. She only wore it once so I donated it back!
Cass@FrugalFamily says
Aw that's good recycling 😉
Samantha says
I love a good car boot sale, though I have not been to any this year so far. Glad to see you have found some great items at the one you attended
Cass@FrugalFamily says
You should get yourself to one this weekend – supposed to be lovely weather x
lulastic says
You have done SPLENDIDLY! Can't believe you spent pennies and got so much stuff.
My local car boot has gotten a bit popular and seems to have hiked it's prices- Boooo 🙁
Cass@FrugalFamily says
That's a shame – time to find a new local maybe?
Mandy says
I'm amazed at all the fantastic bargains you found! I haven't been to a car boot sale since I was a child! I used to love coming home with lots of new toys to play with! I have the next couple sundays off so will definitely take a trip down to the local market and see what fabulous bargains I can find!
