Alamo Square Neighborhood Association Flea Market

Such a fantastic place to look for old stuff, new art, and undiscovered treasures!
This flea market happens once a month. You’ll have to check online to see when the dates are.
But it’s huge! It goes on for blocks and blocks around the perimeter of Alamo Square Park. The prices are good, but if you haggle with them, they come down on the prices. I usually try and laugh at them, and act like they’re crazy when they give the first price, and counter at half of what they offer. I usually settle at about a third to a quarter off what they initially offer!
There’s booths for coffee and donuts, so you can show up early and have your caffeine jolt and breakfast here.
There’s a wide variety of stuff for sale– everything from old military surplus to creative works of art, to old postcards and vinyl records.
This is certainly worth checking out. This community has it together and shows off some really great stuff at this flea market.
Plus, they’re really clean, and don’t mess up the neighborhood when they’re done, which is really appreciated.

This year markedthe 30^th Alamo Square Flea Market, an annual event sponsored by the Alamo Square Neighborhood Association. The flea market covers about 2 sides of the park (2 city blocks) and it’s a collection of random garage sales plus some crafty Etsy like people. The crafty people sold handmade soaps, perfume, jewelry, crochet dolls (cute), and screenprinted items (t-​shirts, tote bags, baby onesies). I recognized one of the vendors from Renegade Craft Fair. The garage sale people had old books, tons of old clothes, dishware, quilts/​blankets, paintings, tools, furniture, jewelry, comic books, vinyl records, toys, etc.
I spotted a few cute old things: a plaid suitcase and old Smith Corona typewriter. I was surprised by one person selling small old photos for $ 10 each.
The food trucks were there, four of them, with sliders, Thai food (Phat Tri), frozen custard (Lexie’s) and hot wings (Cluck It Up).
Free admission.

My feet hurt. I have taken 77 showers and my hair stills smells like BBQ. I will forever exhale charred meat smoke. My hands are chapped and frozen from getting soda.
Q — Why do people ask for root beer or orange soda when we already tell them we ONLY HAVE cokedietcokespriteandwater? Do they really think we’re hiding other soda flavors «in the back»? You realize this is an annual food booth, supporting a nonprofit, IN A TENT, and there is no «in the back».
The best part is I got to say «Wiener me» and «Would you like your buns warmed?». Only once a year I can to say this in public repeatedly without getting dirty looks. Nothing in the world can buy that type of satisfaction.
Oh and if you like mayo, I suggest bringing packets of it with you everywhere, because annual flea market food booths will NEVER have mayo. Kthxbai.
