JUMBLE SALE

A Jumble sale is a sale of second hand goods, usually by an institution such as a local church, as a fundraising effort.

They will typically ask local people to donate goods, which are set out on tables in the same manner as car boot sales, and sold to members of the general public, who have paid a fee to enter the sale.

Typically in the UK the entry fee is somewhere between fifty pence and one pound fifty.

Jumble Sales in Britain have a reputation for being somewhat like a rugby scrum as people jostle for bargains.

In North America, the term rummage sale refers to a similar kind of sale.
