Sioux Falls Flea Market & Thrift Stores

Now that I have moved to South Dakota I have to find new places to hunt vintage treasures. I searched out thrift stores and flea markets in Sioux Falls, made myself a list and a map and drove down to the big city (haha - compared to Memphis, Sioux Falls is so small). Anyway, I went to a flea market and found that it really didn't have much of what I was looking for. There was a lot of interesting and nice things, but it wasn't a good venue for a vintage reseller to pick up things to sell online (things were priced what they were worth or higher as far as I could tell - but most of the items were not in my area of specialty, so I am not 100% sure).

I came home with three items from the flea market, 2 Fraggle cars and Princess Jasmine to sit on top of the lonely Rajah tiger I've had for a while (sad, I know...)

After the disappointing (for me) flea market I headed out next to garage sales and thrift stores that I had mapped out. It was pretty easy to navigate Sioux Falls, which was really great, and it seems like a very nice city to me. There was never a time when I had the mantra that I sometimes repeated to myself in Memphis (please don't let my car break down here, please don't let my car break down here) haha.... (sad laugh).

I had a little luck at the garage sales (~10) and lots of luck at the thrift stores (4 shops).

Once again, like on Thursday, I found some My Little Pony accessories (the baby blue rocker, two fences and trough), but no ponies! Strange. I think my favorite find was that Lotsa Leggss bag - so cute! I'm going to have a hard time letting that go (though I'm not sure where I would wear it to lol):

The Spirograph and Strawberry Shortcake games were fun too!

Overall it was a very successful Saturday. I probably won't go to that flea market again (it only happens once a month anyway), but at least I satisfied my curiosity.

As always, I will be putting some of the things I picked up in my Etsy shop. The Spirograph is already listed! Please come and stop in and take a little walk down memory lane.
