On Labor Day weekend, the entire town of Hillsville, Virginia,  becomes one giant flea market. Most people who live anywhere nearby are sane enough to stay at home. But in thirteen years of living here, I haven't missed it yet.

You used to be able to find some really good deals there, but in recent years it seems to be mostly food and antiques. I think about the only reason we still go is to get socks for the kids. You can't beat four pairs for a dollar. The boys have also been able to find themselves some great deals on workboots the past two years.

And look what else I found this year!

Puppets! Yipee!
