My boyfriend loves this place. Most of the time, I don't understand his attraction to flea markets. It usually has a bunch of stuff that never interests me. The Pickering Markets is slightly different in my mind.
They have a great cosmetics sale section where I pick up shampoo and face cream for low prices. I also really enjoy the antiques area that give you the luxury of browsing many antiques in one setting. You can always find something kitschy or unique in there.
The centre area, I guess the actual flea market part, does nothing for me. But it's interesting to walk through. Not quite worth the 45 minute drive in my opinion, but if someone else is driving then I'll go.
