Best of the best 153 To many it's a paradise; the ultimate shopping experience. The local mall is no compari­ son. Flea markets offer some­ thing for every one. Value and variety are usu­ ally the reason individuals fre­ quent both local and non-local flea markets. Local flea markets could be found on Fifth street off of Route 60, in Milton and in Winfield and were open mostly on weekends. "Going to a flea market is an adventure in itself. Sometimes you find a great deal that turns out to be worth more than the merchant could ever imagine, " said Kelly Willis, Fairmont freshman. Antique dealers of­ ten go to flea markets in hopes of profiting from the lack of knowledge of the seller. At a flea market one can find the most unimaginable items, including toilet seats and danc­ ing hula girl lamps. However, more common things, such as jewelry, kitchen supplies, clothes and automotive prod­ ucts, also can be purchased. "Flea markets are a cultural experience. You see unusual things you wouldn't find any where else," commented Parkersburg freshman Alexis Ploeger No matter if you go for the cultural or if you go to bargain hunt, flea markets are an expe­ rience everyone should try. by Candy Vincent
