The first step is admitting you have a problem, so here goes. Even though I’m broke and just got through taking 25 boxes of useless crap to thrifts stores during my last move, it’s still tough for me to resist the allure of buying more useless junk at L.A.’s weekend swap meets and flea markets. It’s a sickness. I’m not well. Or perhaps… they’re just that fun.
The thing that saves me is that I always forget which one is on which weekend. I know you can relate. So since I’m my own worst enemy, I’ve decided to fix that little problem. After the jump we’ve got a handy little google map and calendar combo to turn to in the future. You can even sync stuff up to your ical if you like. Look how high tech we are! Woo hoo!

This is great, thanks!
Was wondering if you could add the LA County Public Adminsitrator Public Auction that is going to be held on Sat. Sept. 12 at 16610 E. Chestnut, City of Industry. These auctions are going to be held every other month at this location. They’ll have antiques, autos, jewelry, coins, collectibles, household items, etc. Check out the website for details. Thanks
Alpine Village Swap Meet on the Torrance/Carson border: Tuesday through Sunday, 9AM to 3PM. Booya!
West LA Farmer’s Market
Every Sunday from 9am to 2pm
11338 Santa Monica Boulevard at Corinth Ave on the Court House/Civic Center plaza, behind the Public Library.
You should add in the LA Dodger Stadium flea market! Its website is currently down, so I don’t know how often it occurs. I’ve never been, either, but it’s another possibility!
