Flea Market Sunday




Barcelona is a cornucopia of flea markets.

They pop up all over the place for a day or two, in unexpected locations, each one with its own theme. Almost every weekend, there is a new flea market in a different place: on the beach, at the train station, in a park, on the streets...

The stuff you can find at these markets is as random an unexpected as the events themselves. Clothes, shoes and accessories, of course - but also books, toys, vinyl records, vintage home decorations, antique objects... All prices are negotiable; most can be taken down below 5 euro.

Last Sunday, I visited one of these markets and I think it is my favourite so far: the "All for One Euro" Market!

Yes, the title does not lie, everything here was one euro. In total, I spent 20 and got home with 20 objects: clothes, shoes, handbags, rings and a vintage jewelry box! Moreover, it was held in one of Barcelona's coolest rock bars - Oveja Negra (The Black Sheep).

It's organized by Two Market. Other cool flea market events can be found on their website as well.
