fozzyfoz Posted November 18, 2005 #3 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Swap Shop the largest flea market in SoFla is just minutes from downtown Ft Lauderdale. ;) http://www.floridaswapshop.com/ I think I stumbled onto that one when I was visiting about 5 years ago. If it's the one I'm thinking of, then it's huge! Both indoor and outdoor vendors/booths/shops and was actually pretty crowded (and it was a weekday, not weekend shoppers). There was a food court inside and rides even. I'm not a flea market person so I just did a quick in and out and went to Sawgrass Mall (I think that's what it was called) and spent the rest of the afternoon there.

Bequia Posted November 18, 2005 #4 Share Posted November 18, 2005 fozzyfoz, That's the one....:p At night it's a fourteen screen drive-in theater, not many drive-in's left in the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvholly Posted November 18, 2005 Author #5 Share Posted November 18, 2005 It could very well be the one you both mention near FLL. Did get a bit more info from my cabin mate today. It was at a dog race track. Does this fit the bill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bequia Posted November 18, 2005 #6 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Ah, that would be the Hollywood Dog Track, definately closer to Miami - here's the link: http://www.hollywoodgreyhound.com/flea_market.html You really should try to see the Swap Shop, it's huge! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentS Posted November 18, 2005 #7 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Holly, if you love Flea Markets you'll definitely want to go to the Swap Shop and forget the one at the Hollywood Dog Track... Swap Shop is THE Flea Market! It's real easy to get to, on Sunrise Blvd. west of I-95, east of the Florida Turnpike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvholly Posted November 19, 2005 Author #8 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Hate to ask again. However, could be interested in Swap Shop. You both make it sound so much better.

Thanks MUCh. You hjave both been so much help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bequia Posted November 19, 2005 #10 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Could I trouble you for a web site and/or hours of operation and address or better directions. Holly, from the airport its a 15 minute drive. Real easy. Exit airport and follow signs for I-95 North Exit at West Sunrise Boulevard exit 29B Continue west 1 mile you can't miss it. MAP: http://www.floridaswapshop.com/map.cfm Most travel centers, hotels, tourist info booths have brochures for the Swap Shop. The brochure has a coupon for a goodie bag that includes discount coupons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
