"Went to the Sweetwater flea market on Sunday. It has free admission and parking which is close to the entrance. It was very hot that day and there was no air conditioning inside. It was hot as the underside of the devils foot in there. While we were there the power went out in half the facility. The concession stand was affected and you couldn't buy anything to drink. I'd say about half the booths were empty when we went. It has the usual flea market stuff. Socks, t shirts, knives, Trump flags, CBD, and your run of the mill Chinese junk. It did however have a coin booth with silver bullion which is why I went. My step daughter loved the play area as well. It was alright to go once, but keep your expectations low. I would go again but only to get some silver at the coin booth. For me that was worth the trip."
