Fairground Swap Meet

Oh baby I loves is downnnnn I've been coming here since I was a baby. My mom and granny came here when they was kids too. I haven't been in a long time but I'm planning on coming back to shop.

Been coming here for years. Love digging threw stuff. I always start from the backside that's where they have all the cool stuff, the front side is all new stuff and a bunch of vendors have the same thing.

Really good bargains on a variety of items, tools, garden tools, clothes, cowboy boots, food. Vendors are approachable and honest. I'm not much for swap meets but I enjoy going to this hot spot!

Never been on a Saturday I prefer Sundays. But decided to give it a try. Not too bad. Not as many vendors on Saturday but enough to check out It was Halloween so that might be why. If you have a couple dollars in your pocket, go check it out

I'm a regular here at the Swap Meet on weekends- I don't know why I haven't checked in before. My husband and I come out here for different reasons: I like the early morning walks and he likes to treasure hunt - but we both come for the loaded baked potatoes. I've found some really awesome things out here..like a huge, old, (working!) vintage movie marquee for $15 annnnd some real junk- like headphones that worked for 1 hour. I personally like the far back section where its more of a yard sale vibe. Mostly why I write this review is to let you all in on the baked potatoes, churros, and roasted corn. Look at the picture.. its worth 1000 words.

This place has the coolest stuff for sale and the sellers are pretty nice too. Some of the stuff is pricey but there is always a good deal to be made. Try it out and you won't be disappointed.

I've been here twice, the first time it was overly crowded where there was hardly any parking spots and people actually fought over it, and today it was pretty empty (Saturday). Admission on a Saturday is $1.50 for 11 years and older. 10 and under are free. The person taking your tickets was odd or maybe rude is a better choice word. I had my husband, myself, my daughter, and 2 sons with 3 tickets in hand. I literally had to count and tell him 1, 2, 3. My boys are obviously under 10 so it shouldn't be in question where the other 2 tickets are. So, folks, a swap meet is a swap meet. You go there to hopefully find a good bargain or maybe you want those ridiculously priced t shirts that are going for 5 for $10 or the newest toy that's a fad, cell phone or car accessories, snacks, used items, I don't know--what ever your heart desires. It's a hit or miss anytime you go because you just never know what treasure you'll find. I just wanted to go to go. Not looking for anything, just had that itch. Anyway, I feel like I'm somewhere foreign when I come here--dirt roads, I got spoken to in Spanish at almost every booth I approached, those drinks in a clear bin with different fruits and flavors, music playing at random vendors booths, etc. A lot of the new items are the same type of products and are sold by multiple vendors throughout the swap meet--so you'll kinda notice a trend. Same, same, same, different, same, same, same, different. Towards the back are the used items. There was a lot of trash on the ground. Most of them were the boxes of these fidget spinners (latest toy fad). I must've counted over 10 empty boxes. Overall, it wasn't that bad. Would I come again? Of course!

What can I say? Fairly good if you know what you're looking for. There are various vendors selling a plethora of goods. The only catch is the quality. How can one know? You really can't. It's a gamble. What do we know for certain?The foooooood!Various taco trucks selling everything from menudo to barbacoa. What do I recommend? The barbacoa tacos. Order 3. With everything. Ultimate satisfaction with every bite. An open salsa bar with onions and pico de Gallo. Madre mía. Why aren't you open everyday? Perhaps they are, I only visit in Sundays. Get there after 2 to avoid paying for entrance. Yes I'm a frugalwood. ¡Buen Provecho!

Huge. May redundant vendors, but for the fun and experience it's awesome. Good food. Great used item selections in the rear.

I have driven by this Swap Meet many times in the past and always wanted to come check it out. It is usually really packed. Especially on the weekends.The day I came it was kind of late. At least that's what my cousin-in-law said. It was 11 am and that was early to me. She said most of the vendors and customers come really early in the morning.We entered the parking lot and it seemed like there was a lot of cars. The parking lot was huge. There was two entrances to park, but only one entrance to walk into the Swap Meet.If I recall correctly they charged $1 per adult and the kids were free. They give you a ticket when you pay and there is someone else that takes it when you enter.We started out by eating breakfast at a lunch truck. They had breakfast and lunch. They had the menu on the truck, but not the prices.The lady that assisted us was really nice and attentive, but once it was time to pay we noticed it was too pricey for a lunch truck. The food was okay.Once we were done eating we started looking around. Oh I almost forgot to mention that this Swap Meet is on top of dirt not cement. Don't bring sandals because your feet will get very dirty. There is no shade as well so bring a hat.As we were walking, I saw there was a lot of empty spaces. I also noticed there was some people packing up and getting ready to leave.I guess it was just a bad day to go. There wasn't too much to look at and instead of everyone selling close together they were all scattered out. We would have to walk like 10 empty spaces to get to the next vendor.We did find some cute items that weren't too bad, but I didn't think we were getting a great deal either. For example I bought my husband a silver ring he liked at Venice for $10. He saw a cute silver ring for me here and it was $20.What I hated about this Swap Meet were the restrooms. They use porta potties and I don't want to go into detail because they were gross. I saw three of them and they were all in the far back.I'm considering coming back on a weekend because my cousin-in-law said they have a lot of great deals and sell all kinds of good merchandise. It was just late and a week day so a lot of vendors didn't show up.
