Raynham Flea Market

billrrrr writes: For more than three decades in good times and bad, the Raynham Flea Market has given people in Southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island a chance to set up a business for a low start up cost. Many vendors have gone on to successful stand-alone stores and profitable careers.

Customers have been able to find bargains on mundane items as well as some rare finds. You can get common household items for a dollar and sometimes less! Kids can buy hermit crabs and adults can still find vinyl records from longtime vendor and jazz buff, Wayne, You can probably even eight tracks...and hey IPODDERS...8 tracks were pretty good back in the 70's.

Some posters give low marks to flea markets.. It is after all, a rummage sale...a trip to somebody else's basement..a scary walk through an old person's attic. Abercrombie & Fitch is Abercrombie & Fitch and a Flea Market might make you itch. It is what it is.

As for the food, check out the pure angus burgers they cook outside over an open fire. This menu is far cheaper and way better than you'll find at the Outback, The Longhorn, or any steakhouse between here and the Texas Panhandle.

and how about this....the famous Jack's Joke Shop of Boston has set up in the Raynham Flea Market. After almost a half-century in downtown Boston, they have relocated to booth 340. Look for Louie---you will know him by the knife sticking through his head!!
and...wait there's more...look for the Great Pitchmen-next door to Louie.
It's Bill and Bill. They should be on TV. They are the best salesmen with the best product. They sell that fabulous Blue Jewelry Cleaner called Clear Bright and Shiny. Let them clean your rings and eyeglasses for free...you won't believe how good the stuff is. It's also an anti fog....take a hot shower...and no fog on your mirror.

If you come to Massachusetts for a vacation. See Boston, take in a Red Sox game, come to Cape Cod, visit Plymouth Rock, gaze on Old Ironsides, and come to the Raynham Flea. Posted: 11:43 am on January 11th
