I made £271 in a day of selling at a car boot sale & my mate did £130 – I left with half a car’s worth of new bits too

EVERYONE knows that the car boot sale's a good place to go to nab a bargain.

But one woman has shown that selling at a bootie can also be a , after making a whopping £271 at her local one.

Lizzy decided to try her luck by flaunting her wares at the boot sale, and documented the experience in a video on her TikTok page.

Things began quietly but then got busier, which was when Lizzy enjoyed the most success.

“I had loads of fake designer ,” she said.

“They all sold for about £8 to £12 each.”

Another popular item was a Jellycat book that Lizzy was parting ways with, and she sold it on for £2.50.

There were other Jellycats to find in the boot sale too, as someone who knew what a fan Lizzy is of the plushies came round to show her the one they'd managed to nab.

Holding up the sausage dog, Lizzy said: “She paid £1, brand new tags, I'm so jealous!”

Weighing in on the things being sold on their stall, one person commented on the video: “I'd have bought the bags lol!”

With Lizzy replying: “They all sold apart from Fiorelli.

“Got between £7-12 I think for each – sold well!”

“Did you do well? Debating doing one,” another asked.

“Yessss! Defo do it!” Lizzy responded.

She then revealed in another video on her page just how much she'd managed to make at the event.

“I made a total of £271.65, which is so good!” Lizzy said.

The boot sale was also a success for her as a buyer, as she came back with “half a car full of stuff”.

“I sold a lot of bags and things like that – and they really added up!” she added.

Lizzy's friend Sophia did the boot sale with her too, and ended up making over £130 herself.

Commenting on the video, one person urged the pair to “reinvest it”.

“I will be taking it back to the car boots to buy, yes!” Lizzy replied, added that she's also selling things elsewhere.

“I’ve sold about £130 on Vinted this week!” she said.

“So good! Sold the good stuff first!”

“This is amazing,” another wrote.

“Well done, both of you!

“You should keep doing it, and keep doing videos of how much you make.”

“Will do! Hopefully doing another one in a month or so,” Lizzy said in response.

And when someone else asked how much she sells things for on her stall, Lizzy said that it “depends what it is”, but detailed a few examples such as “clothes from 50p up to £6” and “mugs for 50p”.
