Car boot sales

Post by Jenny K » 03 Oct 2010, 18:35

We need to get rid of some junk from our spare room to turn it in to a nursery. Does anyone know where the best car boot sales are? Newcraighall, Meadowbank or east lothian... ? Only want to do it once, so looking for busy one :D

East Fortune is always busy. Greenside is like Thunderdome.

That was my recollection too... Like something out of Bladerunner!

Not at all - pretty sure it is busy!

greenside is good! there is also one at Corn Exchange (can't remember if it was Sat or Sun though - but be easy to find out I reckon). Though if you have postable stuff I'd recommend ebay.
