Happy's is an old indoor flea market located in Roanoke...On a chilly March morning we went out to breakfast then stopped at Happy's for the very first time, come along!
I'm diggin' that old skool tile floor!
Remember trying to win radio contests with these old dial phones? Yeah, good luck with that!
I didn't have a 7-Up bike but I did have a bike similar to this with the old banana seat and sissy bar!
In the market for a squirrel (I think) pelt?
Your Halloween one stop shop!
Ah, but honestly, Happy's is pretty interesting and I guess there's something there for everyone. I personally buy the bulk incense they sell and not because I smoke pot which my mom always thought that people who burn incense only do it to cover up the pot smell lol...I just happen to love incense...and then...this happened...
We bought a drumset...Linking up with Rubbish Tuesday if you would like more info on Happy's, visit their website RIGHT HERE!

What a surprise purchase!! Was it planned? How cool! Drums are very expensive, and I bet you got a good deal here. We have a set of electric drums for the girls. They loved playing with them since they were tiny.
ReplyDeleteI LOVED going here as a little kid!! Thanks for a great memory.
ReplyDeleteBest,
Bonnie
Wow there are so many things there. From useless little things to real treasures. You just have to search.

You just made me wonder where all the old rotary phones went.
ReplyDeleteWhoo Hoo a drum set, everybody will be happy now. I remember those old phones and radio contests. I would get made because my Mom wouldnt get us a push button phone because it cost more to rent them.
ReplyDeletei love the tile floor too!! neat design. i miss our home phone like that - it was the good old days. the main problem is when you make a mistake - you had to start totally over. ha. ha!! ( :
ReplyDeleteNow that's a great place to spend a few hours. The old telephone brought back memoreis of party lines. Love the drum set! We need a video! Thanks for linking up!
ReplyDeleteWell, I bet you found a lot of 'rubbish' and maybe some treasures in that old flea market. I used to love going to those places but have given it up. Ran out of room to store stuff. hehe
ReplyDeleteoh, and you've been heard the drums ever since... :)
ReplyDeleteA drumset over a squirrel pelt. You will regret this and all along I tought you were a pretty smart gal. hahahaha Soundproof them walls, sista.
ReplyDeleteWhat a huge flea market. I would loved to have been strolling around with you here. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly looks like what you'd expect out of a flea market. And yes, you'll regret that drum purchase. It reminds me of the joke that if you dislike someone, buy their kids a set of drums!
ReplyDeleteI like to go on summer Saturday mornings. There is always a lot to see out back!
ReplyDeleteThe drum set is a dangerous purchase. Wonderful for the budding Gene Krupa or Buddy Rich, but torture if you are trying to sleep or concentrate. Love places like this. Such fun looking at all the stuff.
ReplyDeleteFun place. Did you buy earplugs too? :)

ReplyDeleteThat sure looks like a place worth visiting!! Cool to score the drum set.
ReplyDeleteI would love to visit that place...just for the memories it would trigger!
ReplyDeleteI still have one of those old phones. It looks just like that one only it is red!
ReplyDeleteLove that Green bike!
ReplyDeleteMy mom still uses a Rotary Phone (cream colored). Flea Markets are great places where, "one mans junk is another mans treasure." - Have fun with those drums.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a while since I've seen a dial up phone, and those bikes back to childhood. Very nostalgic post.
ReplyDeletemy kinda place, would like to take a look around there
ReplyDeleteFlea market is really a fun place!
ReplyDeleteWishing you and yours a lovely Sunday!
