We set off early at 7 oddish in the morning to setup our display. We found ourselves pretty early when we got there as there were not many vendors touched base yet. One of the staff there directed us to our 'designated' car park slot but we were told to move soon after as they kinda got mixed up with the arrangement. We soon realized that that spot would have been a better one. In the end, our spot was just slight right in front the entrance of The Boiler Room. Decent, the toilets are nearby. ;P
Soon, the rest of the participants begun to stream in and the buzz seems to heat up. Most of the vehicles at the car boot sale were small-sized. There were some cool cars out there too. There's two vintage Volkswagen Beetles, a couple of small vans and a white Lamborghini! Later, we understood that all the sale proceeds from the Lamborghini owner will go to the designated charity.
And this is a pretty cool bit... besides the expected Mediacorp celebrities attending the event, we met some unexpected stars too. We saw Maggie Q sporting a huge shade with a security personnel by her side! She was seen walking along the pavement outside The Boiler. Come later, we saw Rainee Yang with her entourage of personnels alighted from a white mini tour bus. Rainee was quickly ushered into the club before anyone can take a good look at her.
As the happenings started to heat up so does the weather. It was sunny hot by noon time but the crowd wasn't too bothered by it. At the course of the event, we gave out mini card info about ourselves and sold off a encouraging number of t-shirts. Considering it was our first participation in flea markets, the sales were good! We also received positive and encouraging comments about our designs and packaging from passerby and buyers alike. All in all, we really enjoyed ourselves and doing that bit part for charity! We look forward to another such event and keep you guys in the loop of things!
