Car Boot Sale

A car boot sale or boot fair is a form of market at which individuals sell household goods and other personal belongings. The term refers to the selling of items from the boot, or trunk, of a car. While some sellers at car boot sales are professional traders, most of the goods on sale are used personal possessions sold by private individuals. A wide variety of items are sold, including antiques and collectables, as in a flea market. Car boot sales are popular in the United Kingdom, where they are often referred to simply as "car boots", and also in parts of Australia and mainland Europe. Outdoor car boot sales typically take place during the summer, but indoor boot sales and all-year hard-standing outdoor boot sales are now appearing in some parts of the UK. The rotation of surplus household stock at car boot sales reduces waste and promotes frugality.
