'I make enough money to comfortably live on, and I think the longer I do this, the more knowledgeable I become about vintage clothing and finding bargains.'

A savvy shopper has shared how she makes thousands of pounds a month by reselling high-value items she buys for low prices at car boot sales.

Sharing her advice on finding hidden gems at car boot sales, Becky said: "It's always wise to plan before you go - research key information such as when it opens and join the Facebook group so you can see if it's been called off due to factors such as weather. Don't forget to bring cash and lots of bags - you need a way to carry all your bargains and reusing old bags is the way forward.

"You'll want to check items thoroughly once you've found something you like. There's nothing worse than finding a hole or stain in an item after you have bought it. Items can be repaired, but make sure you know what you're dealing with first." "When browsing, ensure you don't miss a section. Sometimes charity shops wrongly categorise pieces - I've found some of my favourite items in the men's and children's sections.
