Your resolve to stick to not buying but listing what you had, your target setting for clearing and decorating your house, AND now the boot sale leads to only one thing. You have blown my socks off 😄 Bravo !
Hi Helen, many thanks for your comment. Yes, its not been a great year here at Ems Den Headquarters and we are definitely hoping for a happier year ahead. We are loving living in a tidy stock free home and do daily inspections to make sure that we keep it that way lol. We are feeling so much happier and the back log is almost clear of old stock....hooray we are finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel! Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖
Hi Chris, many thanks for your comment. I know I didn't realise until we watched the video back, I am obsessed with food lol. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖
Hi, many thanks for your comment. Yes we were up at 4.30 am and have just about got over it lol. Its raining this weekend so it will be a lie in and a bacon sandwich in bed this Sunday..... yay! Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖
You did really well :) I don't know how you get out of bed that early to go to a carboot sale, so hats off to you! At least you'll have a bit more room at home now! x
Hi Monique, many thanks for your comment. Yes, we were trying to think of lots of reasons why we couldn't go but had no excuse as the weather was actually sunny. It took us about three days to get over getting up that early. Thankfully its going to be raining this weekend and we are so chuffed that we don't have to go back yet. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖
Well done Paul and Marie, it’s great to take your own food and coffee, and it’s great to make a fair few quid on tat. That was a very early morning though. What did you do with stuff left over? Hopefully you won’t need to do another car boot too soon. I hope you managed to have a relaxing afternoon. I enjoyed this video, it was a very bright morning but obviously freezing cold and even a sausage can’t compensate for having frozen extremities! I hope you’re having a good week. Lots of love Joan x
Hi Joan, many thanks for your comment and so lovely to hear from you. We do have a fair bit left and with some other bits that we have in the garage, have enough to do another one but thankfully not this weekend as rain is forecast. It will be a lie in and a bacon sandwich for us this week and we cannot wait lol. Its been a busy couple of weeks here at Ems Den Headquarters, Emily had her dance show, that was the first weekend and then last weekend we were visiting a car boot sale on the Saturday and selling at one on the Sunday so a restful weekend is planned for this week... yay! Thanks for watching Joan, hope you are keeping well and have a great weekend. Love Paul & Marie xx👍💖
Entertaining vid 😂😂 Gotta be done though👍 Clear and make space. We visited this carboot last year - was massive but took an hour to get in 🤔 Well done 🙂🙂 Hope you enjoyed those sausages 👌👌
Hi James, many thanks for your comment. Yes this boot sale gets massive and is not always great to sell at in the summer as there is so much competition. We cleared a lot of stuff and the sausages were amazing. Find it so boring selling at a car boot and it was the sausages that kept us going lol. Thanks so much for watching, take care and have a great week. 👍💖
Hi Eddie, many thanks for your comment. I know, what an idiot I am. We didn't realise until we watched it back. This is my life though always planning when and what I am going to eat lol. Really not a fan of selling at a car boot sale, should have spent a little more time arranging the stall to try and sell a few more items and a lot less time talking about sausages lol. Yes we used to love Grange Hill so we know exactly what you mean. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖
@@emsdenuk Ha ha, no - I loved the vid! You showed the reality of your day, things people can relate to (I even ended up admiring your bladder control - I would have been rushing off needing a wee after just queuing to get in!!!). God knows how you waited until you got home 🤣 Brilliant stuff - you all have a great weekend as well 👍
Thanks so much Eddie, I know, it was the longest wee I have ever had lol. I have quite a sensitive nose and its the smell in the toilets that make me feel ill so I always try and avoid. Our lovely daughter had walked over to Waitrose and bought us a pack of Yum Yums as a treat for when we got back. Sausages, coffee and a Yum Yum, we are very blessed lol. Take care and have a great week Eddie. 👍💖
Hi Lucie, many thanks for your comment. Yes we went a couple of times last year and went to the Wednesday one too. Can't wait for the nicer weather. Hoping to meet you too. Thanks for watching and take care. 👍💖
Hi, many thanks for your comment. Its due to rain here so no car boot sales for us but really hoping the sun is out near you and you grab some bargains. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖
Hi, many thanks for your comment and sorry you have had to watch our video of us at a car boot when yours is not open yet. I am sat here typing with three layers on, its just so cold, when is the nicer weather going to get here? On a positive note, you haven't spent any money and you haven't worn yourself out walking around. Fingers crossed they open up soon for you. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖
Well done guys! Were in Hampshire as well (you bought a big table from my partners sister) We done our first car boot last Sunday as well at strawberry fields between Lymington & Brockenhurst. Really busy, we took 2 cars & made over £200.00 between us. Thank goodness we were there early as they turned away some sellers as they were full quickly, only using the little field as big one to wet. We always take our food & coffee, to expensive to buy as you say 😊
Hi Suzanne, many thanks for your comment. We've sold at Strawberry Fields before, I remember they had nice toilet blocks lol. Well done for doing so well there. Yes we heard that they were turning people away, can you imagine loading everything up the night before and getting up really early, queuing and then being turned away, what a nightmare. We don't remember buying a big table, but we are quite old and the memory lets you down sometimes lol. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖
Thanks Suzanne, we had a lie in and a bacon sandwich in bed this morning, much better than last Sunday morning lol. Hope you are having a lovely weekend too. Take care and have a great week. 👍💖
Well done, at least it was dry. Pleased it proved successful. What do you do with the unsold items - save them for the next boot sale or donate them to a charity shop?
Hi Michael, many thanks for your comment. We have enough stuff to do another car boot so will pack it all up in the Ford Galax but not this week as its going to be raining. We don't expect to do the same sort of money at the next one although we will be taking some different stuff but if we are left with a lot after the next one then we may donate it as we don't want to be going if the amount we are taking is not really worth our time, also we don't enjoy doing them, its much more fun buying lol. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖
Hi Lucie, many thanks for your comment. This was at Bridgemary School in Gosport. If you are going to buy, they let you in at 6.30 am. Plenty of parking, a big range of hot cooked food (indoor & out) a lot of people go and have their Sunday fry up. They also have indoor toilets. Its on all year round as they use the hard standing areas of the school when the weather has been bad. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖
Hi, many thanks for your comment. Blimey you have nailed it, wished we could do that, once I'm awake that's it, can't fall asleep until bedtime lol. Hope you grabbed a few bargains this weekend and the weather was kind to you. Thanks so much for watching, take care and have a great week. 👍💖
@@emsdenuk i did ok again, maxed out on vintage tupperware and pyrex, always fast sellers, now got the bit i hate, washing and photographing it all...have fun ive subbed
Hi Lucie, many thanks for your comment. We are not sure about their views on filming there. We only really filmed our stall as we are not that comfortable walking around with a camera, its our local car boot so we don't want to get banned so are very careful not to annoy anyone lol. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend. 👍💖

Thank you for sharing.....you both did well and getting in line by 4.30am 😮 let's hope the weather improves soon 💞

Our car boot season still hasn't started. Waterlogged pitches. Hopefully this weekend. Previous years they've started mid-March.
