I've heard of the Canton, Tx market. My Stepdad and Mom used to go down there every year. He's a wheeler dealer of all things cheap, lol and him and Mama are hoarders so they have a houseful of stuff that no one needs but at least he does earn a living do this. I like buying stuff cheap and I like to buy things used. Why put more stuff in the world? Reuse and recycle helps everyone.
We have a small town of around 3000 population so our Trade Days really help the local economy. It is an economically depressed area. Our local churches all have a food bank and other community outreach programs to help. Everyone is into bartering and helping out. One of my friends is bringing me over a deer shoulder this a.m. I love my little community.
