Shopping for FLEAS?

A flea is a ridiculously small and troublesome insect that can drive a dog crazy with all the itching and scratching it causes. So what do fleas have to do with markets and shopping? No one is quite sure, as the origins of the term “flea market” are not certain. Some people believe it originates from the Dutch language, others think it stems from French. But there is one thing that almost everybody agrees: there’s no better place to shop if you are in search of a good bargain.

There are countless flea markets all around the world, and they are especially

popular in Europe. On of the busiest markets in Europe is in the town of Lille,

Northern France: La Bradene. With two hundred kilometers of open stalls, this

flea market offers a massive diversity of things to buy at reduced prices.

Unfortunately, this amazing event, which has over a million visitors, is only an

annual event that happens during this first weekend of September.

Another shopper’s paradise is in Russia. Moscow has many flea markets but the

Vernisazh flea market at Izmailovsky Park is perhaps the most famous. There is

almost nothing that you can’t find there, especially if you are a tourist looking

for authentic Russian souvenirs to bring back home.

But flea markets are not just place where tourists can buy inexpensive things.

The Annex Antiques Fair and Flea Market in New York, the USA, is a trendy

market which has been attracting famous Hollywood stars as well as people

living in the area ever since it opened. So, as you see, flea markets offer

something for everyone!
