Personal: Flea Markets
One of the joys of Saturday morning, other than not going to work, is the search for a bargain at a flea
market or farmer's market. One man's trash might turn into your treasure. It's quite easy to spend hours searching tables hoping to find something for virtually nothing.
Here are some flea market tips.
Byward Market
613-244-4410 fax: 244-4416
The Farmers Market has been the hub of Ottawa's commercial activity since 1826. Lots of shops, cafes and nightclubs in Ottawa's historic old Lowertown, streets built wide enough for horse-drawn carts to bring produce to market 175 years ago provide plenty of parking in modern times. Most of the city's museums and public buildings close by, not to mention more shopping on Sussex Drive, Rideau Street (and Rideau Centre Mall). Public Parkade at 70 Clarence (between Williams and Byward)
