If I’ve not been out too late and have nothing else on, I can’t resist getting up early on a Sunday morning and rummaging through other peoples junk for a couple of hours.
Just got back from my local car boot sale with another impressive haul of CD’s that includes Dinosaur JR - Green Mind for 50p ($1) , a 3 CD 50 track Psychedelic compilation for the same price, NIN - With Teeth £1 ($2) and a Bad Religion live bootleg from 1994 for 10p (20 cents). I got a pair of old faded Wrangler jeans for £1, a hardback book about Glam Rock for the same price and a couple of nice wooden photo frames.
It’s getting to the stage where I don’t buy anything new for myself (apart from food and underwear), because I know I’m going to see stuff I want every week at the car boot / garage sale. It’s become a bit of an obsession, but I get a real buzz out of it. Any other addicts in the pit?

    Cool! Well done. I've never found any good CD's at a car boot sale. I've got a couple from charity shops though...
    It's good for picking up childrens toys too.

    Yard sales/garage sales are great sometimes to check out. :D
