I've been waiting for time to get on the
computer to share my flea market photos,
today seems to be that day...
My kids & I have for the past few years
celebrate Mother's Day on the
Saturday, instead of Sunday,
I figure with Step Mom, Mother in Law
& being a Mother herself,
it is easier on my kids to celebrate with
me on Saturday...
Plus, that was the day of the
Utica Flea Market ~ Bonus!
can you tell it was a cloudy day,
but the weather was cool enough to
walk for a few hours & not get overheated
and it never rained, not a drop!
I could hardly believe that my son
also joined us, certainly Not his thing,
but he was there for ME
I loved this old stroller, kept thinking
I could turn it into a shopping cart for
when I go to Garage sales & other Flea Markets,
but the price was Crazy
actually the prices were
Crazy Expensive on Most,
you would think you were at a high end
Antique store for what some people were
asking....
whatever happen to finding a great deal?
Love these only galvanized buckets,
I think they were all gone by the time
we circled around to leave
If this could have weathered the outdoors
I think this would have come home with me,
but they wanted $250
Too rich for my blood
The graphic caught my eye
Is Ian asking if we can go Home Yet!
This was a big Flea market, but most of
the photos I took were too blurry to use,
Oops!
I was the only one to purchase anything,
I bought 2 old cigar glass jars,
I think I am going to use them upside down
as a Cloche!
Ending the day with Yummy Mexican food
&
of course a Rest!
Joining in with
I agree it sounds pretty pricey - but your son going along, now THAT is priceless!
ReplyDeleteI know I don't really mind just looking sometimes and I'm glad you had such a nice day for it.
It sounds like you had a wonderful day. The last big sale I was at I was so disgusted by the prices that I basically walked through and walked out. It is just crazy...and there were NOT many people buying either. I think it is great that your son went along. xo Diana
ReplyDeleteNot only was it expensive, they also charged $5 a person to enter! Saturday I am going to a Church Flea Market, so I have my fingers crossed for this one....

Hi Cheryl, sounds like a wonderful way to spend a Mother's Day. How nice that your son was there too! so many fun things, I love that old stroller too!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI like the chicken nest thingy, but I'm sure it was too rich for my blood too... I thought flea markets were supposed to have good prices. I guess I will stick with my garage sales. When it comes to a day like that I am just happy to spend the time with my family, I bet you had a great time, Have a great weekend! t.xoxo
