You Will Find Nothing You Need And Everything You Want At One Of The Waco Flea Markets

By Janet Anderson


There are a lot of things to do in Waco. You can hike in some of the beautiful parks or take in some of the other attractions, such Six Flags. There are also some things happening, almost every weekend in good weather where you can gain a lot of other things. It is a place where people offer things that you may not have seen before and offer them at a price you can not afford to ignore. Those places are the Waco flea markets that are available.

There is any number of these happening on just about all weekends. You will be able to find one with some help from friends or family. You can also find them listed on community boards in many grocery stores. Your church may also list some of them in their bulletins. You may also meet people, there, who set up regularly, at least on the day church is not in session.

What you find at any flea market is a group of people renting space to set up tables. In most markets, the tables are included in the cost as is a chair or two. Individuals and or businesses set up their offerings for sale. The list of things you can find, as you walk along, is an inclusive one. These things are important to find for many people.

Some of the items that people are offering are things from their garage. You will find tools that work with just a small amount of rust. Old vehicle owners manuals and things people would ordinarily put out at yard sales. Completing your incomplete socket set may be easy to do depending on who is set up on that day.

Some of the tables will be loaded down with offerings from small businesses that are in other locations as well. Many of these will be placing some of the same items that they have on their shelves back at the store. Often they will have discounted prices on everything they bring here and they will also barter, toward the end of the day to move items off their table.

There are always food vendors there. You can find hot dogs and hamburgers and slices of pizza. There will be coffee, soft drinks, and beer if they and the location are licensed for it. Many of these food vendors are actually food carts set up, occasionally, just for these types of events.

There is usually no charge to you as you enter. All fees for the land or lot is paid by the vendors. This means you can come and browse and have fun. It is a chance to find things that you might not have seen before and see what others like to acquire. You might be able to sell a couple of things you have to one of the vendors if they are having a good day.

Remember, when you arrive, that you can find a lot of stuff that you just have to have. There will probably not be anything that you really need. But, that is all part of the fun. Find friends or meet new ones. Look at the stuff that will make a good gift and enjoy a bit to eat with friends, old and new.
