Today we played hooky & drove out to Brimfield to go to the last flea market of 2013.
I rather like going on the last days, I feel like the sellers are more human & faced with the threat of having to haul stuff home, are way more likely to give good deals.
We dont usually buy much, but we always find something & we always have a great time.
Mr. Acorns grew up in the town so its fun to see who still works at the Italian restaurant & the gas station.
Personally my favorite part of the day is picnicing on the bank of the river.
So loaded with a twenty & a smile, we'll see what the day brings us!
Happy Friday to you!
The flea market is fantastic! I like your idea about going on the last days to get better deals! The picnic sounds lovely!

A picnic with wine, no less!
DeleteI adore flea markets but now I have to try very hard not to get carried away because I could quite easily look at that vintage leather trunk and think "ooh, that would be so useful. I could store loads in there..." before reminding myself that I have no where to put it!
ReplyDeleteNot having enough space is something I always forget...especially when it comes to trunks!
