Smiley's Flea Market

  • June 26, 2002
  • Rated 3 of 5 by Coach Bear from Trenton, Illinois
Since moving to Georgia in 1984, I had heard people speak of "going to the flea market." I made my mind up that I would never go to one. However, last weekend I awakened my wife and persuaded her to join me in a new experience. We went 'shopping' at Smiley's Flea Market.

I was surprised at the appearance of the flea market ehen we arrived at the place. I had a mental picture of a small, dusty area with people selling fruit and 'junk' out of the backs of their cars. This was not small, but was a huge area, with six buildings and a lot of outdoor space. It was relatively clean, to my surprise. Yes, there were fruit vendors, and there were people selling things that could be found an many yard sales. But, some of the individual vendors had new merchandise at low prices.

Anna and I spent about two hours walking around and looking at all of the things that people were selling. The flea market had a fair-like atmosphere to it. I don't know if I would return... maybe if I had a need for something that I could find no where else, but it was a unique experience for both of us.
