what a flea market is? I was like, yes, I
had gone to flea markets in my time. He said,
the last time I remember going to a flea market,
I got a miniature slot machine and I was like.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Oh, that's dope. I would love to actually put that
in the house.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
And he was like, actually electrocuted people when you pull
the letter crinkets. It shocked people with electric waves when
they pulled the He goes, so he would go around
the house being like, see, you can get all sevens
and it would electrocute people.

my paw.

Speaker 2 (01:49):
He's like, that's the type of trinkets you know you're
gonna find here. So we're not even like three steps
into the flea market, and I like, just my eyeballs
placed themselves on something and was like, how much you want?
I'll get it says thirty on the tag, I'll give
it to you for twenty. You want it for twenty,
And I was like, I'm not sure, Like I you know,

(02:10):
flea markets are.

Speaker 3 (02:12):
That's depending that's interesting.

Speaker 4 (02:15):
They're different. Yeah, you are.

Speaker 5 (02:17):
So it's more so the people, they're selling stuff. I've
run into situations where people were camped out in like
campers where they've been there, parked there for months, and
that's like their job. That's their house and their job
at the same time.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
Yes, yep, because what I kept thinking in my head
was they these people have to pack up all this stuff,
come from God only knows where, pay whatever they pay
in gas, and to sell all the stuff for a dollar.
Like if you bought everything from one of the vendors,
maybe two hundred dollars, that's it.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
Like are you you know?

Speaker 5 (02:48):
Yeah, well, listen, I've been able to find some cool stuff,
like vintage toys on the eighties.

Speaker 4 (02:53):
I love me too.

Speaker 6 (02:54):
My deodorant at a flea market, I use this Avon
rollan of deodorant, don't I don't buy anything else brand
even packages, beause for.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Like a dollar, I saw nothing brand new, pretty much.

Speaker 6 (03:07):
Yes, no, no, no, they had some stuff. And then
back in the day when we used to go to
the FLEEMUK, especially the one in Salem, New Hampshire, that's
what you mixtapes. This is when mixtapes were really really heavy.
That's why you'd go buy mixtapes, you know, DVDs, all
kinds of things.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
It was there was something, there was something you first off,
you gotta go digg in. This isn't like it'll probably
be like you have to look. And there were some
cool maps and some some stuff that I was, you know,
but then I would see like a dirty stuffed animal
and the guy'd be like fifty cents, Ye, sir, I
wouldn't take that if it had seven friends and they

(03:43):
were free.

Speaker 7 (03:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
It is a mixed bath, new stuff, old stuff, you stuff.
It's like a the Road sale all in one.

Speaker 3 (03:50):
Yeah, No, it is. Yeah, And I actually just said
a sciuty.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
It felt like I could go there right now and
just like gather the belongings in front of me at
the mic right now and just see what I could tell,
you know.

Speaker 6 (04:00):
I mean it was like whatever they Salem, Salem we
used to take the kids to day. It was a
thing to do on a Sunday. You just go there
and just see what's what's poppylar. I mean, you might
get some decoration for the house, you might buy some
useless cards that you never really needed.

Speaker 4 (04:11):
Toys for the kids. You can find there for mad cheap.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
And that was my thought, like we could find the
diamond in the rough for the house.

Speaker 6 (04:18):
I have so much you could people there who are
really like serious about what they're selling, like they really
on some like yo, I got this antique x y
z or I got these rare plane cars. People are
going to to buy playing cards.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
Yes, I saw a little car, a little car, I
saw cards cards with a D and then I saw
cars up with an ad a little oh yeah mad people.

Speaker 4 (04:40):
Yeah, So we go out to Salem. I don't know
if you've been to the Salem one or you know, this.

Speaker 3 (04:44):
Is my first flea market mass so it's you know,
how big was it?

Speaker 4 (04:47):

Speaker 3 (04:48):

Speaker 6 (04:52):
In the open, right yep. I went to Florida and
I went to a flea market in Florida. They do
it different, like is life out there?

stage in the middle of this compound. They had a
stage and a band was playing live music. Where you
could go eat people cutting up fresh fruits and making

(05:23):
you milkshakes or whatever they are, smoothies, like you could
get ice creen.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
Like it was the comfort charge to get into this thing,
because I had to pay five bucks yesterday.

Speaker 4 (05:30):
I think it was like ten dollars. It sounds like
a fair of them. Yeah, that's what it's. That's what.

Speaker 6 (05:34):
But it's called the flea market, and I swear that
aside from the riots, they didn't have that. But it
was like you were walking into a whole new city,
a whole new and they think about it.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
They had it just named. They were doing car tinting,
car audio.

Speaker 6 (05:47):
People were installing music systems into whips, and then on
the other section you could get your car painted and
then you could go over here.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
But yo, it was the wildless thing happened on you
wat Florida did it different?

Speaker 3 (05:58):
Yeah, that's Florida's doing it.

Anybody like ever, I mean, the end of the day,
you're going to something that's called a flea market, like
you know what I mean, it's not which also you
can start marking is called the profound market.

Speaker 5 (06:13):
You also start thinking about, like, hey, maybe we should
do some background check on some of these people.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
But some of these people shut down. Everybody on the
stands murder yeah, toys, like.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
Yeah, yeah, I only bought one thing from the flea
market and it was if you go to my Instagram
at Ashley Felmon twe's in the Ashley It.

Was a toy dancing skeleton.

Speaker 8 (06:42):
I saw that.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
Yeah, anything trick trickle treat and he wraps and he
has sunglasses. And the guy that was selling him was
just like the one you just described. And I go
up to him with the skeleton and I go, excuse me, sir,
how much do you do you want for this? He goes,
what do you why do you want that? Geez?

Speaker 4 (07:02):
Sorry, you're selling it? Like shouldn't you be like this

old loves Halloween. Trust me, she's gonna love this. And
he goes take it like a nice you like, take it,

have because this man had a mile worth of stuff
and the fireman, of course couldn't settle for that. He's like,
I got to give you something, man, Like what can
I give you?

Speaker 3 (07:28):
And he was like a dollar, so we paid ten
to get in.

Speaker 2 (07:32):

worth a bazillion if you go to my Instagram and
