We're open on Memorial Day from 10 AM – 5 PM
Many of us love shopping in thrift stores not just to save, but also because we appreciate how the secondhand market supports sustainability. We also appreciate the beauty and interesting history of bygone days and the vintage and antique treasures they’ve passed down to us. When you’re zipping through the Anderson, IN area, you might like to check out these local venues that offer a nice variety of secondhand goods and vintage values.
1. Weekend Warriors Flea Market
Flea market fans will find a wide range of goods here from Wednesdays through Sundays; it’s not just for weekends! There’s furniture, decorative wares, books and music media, and, of course, clothing and jewelry. If you’re into memorabilia and collectibles, hunt for baseball and other sports cards, Disney items, dolls, and naturally some antiques, as well as local art, at 2140 W White River Boulevard, Muncie, IN 47303.
2. Backyard Bargains
Supporting the Christian mission of the Man for Man ministries, this shop carries clothing, household and decorative items, furniture, and even home appliances like refrigerators, range stoves, ovens, and all kinds of other donated goods.
