Teala Pannell of Ladner was selling her “Shellimals” at a recent car boot sale at Centennial Beach. Car boot sales have nothing to do with boots, but are basically “garage sales at the beach” where vendors have an ideal venue to sell unwanted stuff they have accumulated. “Boot” is what the British call the “trunk” of a car. Run by the Boundary Bay Park Association, the 14th season of car boot sales got underway last month. The next one will be held this Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to noon. For a $10 fee, vendors are allotted two parking spots, one for their vehicle and one to display their goods.Gord Goble
