Re: What is the current iteration of a "Swap Meet?"

‎06-19-2025 07:14 AM

I remember last year around this time Swap Meets were being discussed here. In all my years, I had never seen or even heard of it.  I needed to Google it to learn what it is.  Guess we don't have them in the part of the country where I am located.

@PhilaLady1 We have "Flea markets".  There is what used to be a very large one (it has been scaled down in size over the last ten years or so) in New Hope, PA called Rice's Market.

 

Open on Tuesdays, Saturdays & holiday weekends.

 

When I first moved to the area it used to be so big that they had overflow parking and it sometimes took a long time just to get in and park. Sadly things have changed a lot in recent years.
