Personal: Flea Markets & Farmers Markets
One of the joys of Saturday morning, other than not going to work, is the search for a bargain at a flea market.
One man's trash might turn into your treasure. It's quite easy to spend hours searching tables hoping
to find something for virtually nothing. Here are some flea market tips.
In the Okanagan-Shuswap region, of
course, flea market season is the same as Farmer's Market season, so this list
combines the two. HEre is the list, sorted from North to South:
