There are usually only a couple of them around here. I don't really enjoy mainly because there are big and crowded and I have a hard time getting around. I tend to find very good deals at local thrift shops. :rainbow: :rainbow: :rose: :peace: :wave:

I really enjoy them, but the nearest one to us is 120 miles away do we do not go. When we are down south for a visit we like to go if time allows it.  I enjoy going to thrift stores, you never know when you will find a treasure. Most of the time I walk out empty handed though. But it is fun.

I go every once in a while.  I would go more often if I had more money to spend.  Great place to go shopping.

I enjoy going, but do not get many opportunities to go.

Because of work I haven't been to a flea Market in a while, but I do like flea markets and garage sales.

We don't have a whole lot of them around here, but I do love to go and look around them. There are tons of little treasures there.

I have never been a flea market/yard sale/thrift shop person, and now that my arthritis and fibro make it harder for me to get around, I usually look for online deals.

I use to set up at flea martkets all the time.  I have gotten to old to do it now.  Hope everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe. :)
