  • On this episode of Florida Roadside Attractions we return to the Oldsmar Flea Market aka The Mightiest Flea Market In The South. It’s been three years since I have been to my former hometown’s flea market. It’s
    One of my favorite places to shop! Packed full of retro toys, collectibles, antiques, Japanese Gundam, nostalgia, and more! Also, swing by my former high school, where I graduated! Oldsmar, FLORIDA!

    Cool day at the flea market and lots to see...appreciate you sharing your life adventures as well and how reverent you spoke of your dad. Lost my dad a few years back as well and was blessed to spend his last 7 years by his side giving back for all he had given all of us..my goal was to get him to 100 and we made that by more than a few months but they will be forever in our thoughts. Appreciate all you share and looking forward to your next adventures oh and what an added bonus to have Chris the girl along as well...Stay blessed and safe travels my friends😉

    Years ago (in the late 1980's, early 1990's) my Mom and stepdad came down from Massachusetts to do antique shows. They loaded up their Winnebago with antiques and hit a lot of Florida flea markets, like Oldsmar. They also did one near Melbourne/Cocoa. I don't remember if they did Mt. Dora. When we lived in Apopka we went to the Mt. Dora flea market often. They have a huge flea market on top of the hill and at the base of the hill was a large antique market. Once a month in early spring they had a lot of people set up outside the antique market and I loved browsing. I often found retro items from my childhood-lol! I used to collect old postcards of places I went to when I was growing up and that was a great place to find some.

    I've been going to the Oldsmar Flea Market since the late 1970's. My wife and I bought two tangerine trees there a few months ago.
    Considering how big it is, and it's at a busy intersection between Tampa and Clearwater, I'm surprised developers haven't gobbled it up.

  • @key8354
    @key8354 Před rokem +2

    I have to drive down there and dig through some dvds. I'm addicted to searching for dvd finds and anything Donald Duck.
    This flea market reminds me of the one up here (Waldo Flea Market) they had this big vat with boiled peanuts...my dad used to always get a bag of boiled peanuts for $1-$2.

    Lots of nice games & consoles. Those bikes, the first girl tank bike was from the 60's. The boys bike with a tank I never seen one before & I have seen plenty of recreations. Nice models. I am into science fiction ships & car model kits. Not good as any of those people who the ones in the video.

    As a vendor, Wagon Wheel was overall the best. Sadly, now closed according to their site. Oldsmar retro? Not sure didn't spend any time there when I lived in TB. When I get down there will check it out.
    And the Sanford Market was amazing; even had a wholesale area.
    Carry on.

    • @TampaJay
      @TampaJay  Před rokem

      I miss wagon wheel went there many of times. Big top was also very retro. There are tons of games and collectibles, and toys. I guess it depends on what a person considers retro! As for anything, opinions will vary.
