Hunting around a car boot sale for a bargain is very much a traditional weekend pastime in England, but in most cases they have had a break from happening in the last few months.
However, around various locations in Dorset they will be starting up again in March and April.
Whether you're looking for something in particular or hoping to find the next deal of the century, visiting a car boot sale is still very popular.
Although eBay, Depop and Vinted may be handy sites to make a few bob, nothing beats flogging your unwanted goods at a boot sale.
Here's a few places that will be running their own car boot sale soon.
Ashley Heath
This one is back very soon, with it set to take place on Sunday, March 13 if the weather permits.
Taking place at Homeland Farm in Wimborne they'll be up to 700 stalls and parking for up to 5000 cars, with no booking required.
Sellers are advised to arrive from 6.30am onwards, with further information to be found on their website.
Canford Heath
The first Canford Heath Car Boot of the year is planned to take place on Sunday, April 10, from 8am to 12.30pm.
Sellers are advised to arrive from 7am, with pre-booking being necessary to secure a pitch as they only have a limited number.
