Flea Market, Swap Meet
📖 Canton, Texas, is home to the legendary First Monday Trade Days, a massive flea market and swap meet that transforms this quiet town into a bustling hub for resellers four days a month. Spanning over 400 acres with thousands of vendors, it's renowned for an incredible variety of goods, from antique furniture, vintage clothing, and unique home decor to cowboy boots and costume jewelry. Resellers often find success by arriving early on Thursday or Friday to navigate the less crowded aisles and get first pick of treasures, especially in areas like Antique Alley and the Civic Center, which are known for specialist antique offerings. An insider tip for resellers is to bring plenty of cash, as many outdoor and smaller vendors prefer it, and it can provide leverage for haggling.
