A trip to Brimfield Antique Flea Market, where old things find new people

Welcome to the Brimfield Antique Flea Market! Thousands of buyers and sellers descend on a small Massachusetts town three times a year, filling fields with furniture, vintage clothes, tools, art, oddities and things you didn’t know existed five minutes ago.  We spend the day roaming the country’s largest outdoor antiques show, meeting serious collectors, first-timers, lifelong dealers and shoppers operating almost entirely on instinct.  Along the way: haggling advice, the difference between an oar and a paddle, clown art, a singing bowl sound bath and one important lesson: if you love it, somebody else probably does too. So grab it (preferably using cash).  Suggested episodes: The Big E: What it takes to create 17 days of magic Audacious at sea: Wisdom from strangers on a cruise ship Audacious Scotland: CT’s Highland Festival & Games, plus quarrelsome dames seek justice for witches The minds, hearts (and stomachs) of competitive eaters Welcome to the Punderdome!
