Early Bird Antique & Vintage Flea Market Bargain Shopping!

The semi-annual "big" flea market is on this weekend, and I'm going early to find the freshest antiques and vintage for my collectors! We get to the flea market in Greenville, Kentucky at the crack of dawn, where dealers are still setting up after an overnight rain delay. Will we see the best stuff first, or is it all still packed in their vehicles?
The answer (for us) is to make the rounds a few times while the sellers dry out and put out all their stock! We head to the vendors out on the edges of the field first, figuring they're the folks we don't see here the rest of the flea market season. A huge row of $1 tables, a massive collection of old gas & oil signs, a storage cleanout reseller and a yard sale all live out on the edges of this market, and we start finding the goodies right away...a fab 50s boudoir lamp, a $5 Murano bowl and a hanging shelf that needs much cleaning but costs just $1 are the first things we take back to the car!
The shopping just gets better as more dealers and more shoppers arrive, and we find everything from Treasure Craft pottery and a striped Pyrex bowl to 1930s toothbrush holders and vintage costume jewelry as we peruse! The mainstay vendors here bring out their best for this show too, and we explore everything from 1950s western movie posters and a strange woodman's machete to MCM glass and real frontier powder flask as we comb this place for things we can sell at our shows this summer!
The bargains pile up, and we pick up the best looking antique steamer trunk we've ever seen, then take it back to review the haul. We're sure happy with what we find! Our total spend of $240 has potential to intrigue a lot of different collectors visiting our booth, and we figure (conservatively) we'll sell it all fast for around $750. I'm not a morning person, but this flea market makes it worth getting up early!
