Sharon, pictured below, said she’d had over 50 people visiting her stall, including those browsing before the 2pm start time.

“We’re hoping to do it again before Christmas … I think lots of people want to do it before Christmas to have a clear out and to get some stuff in for Christmas. It’s better to buy secondhand nowadays with lots of children’s toys, rather than ending up in landfill.”
