If you're out of town absolutely stop here! Husband spent $50 & got 7 amazing vinyls (including an unopened one & a promotional funk music album). I got a fill-a-bag of vintage buttons for $2, a little tapestry, bronze ashtrays, couple witchy Santa ornaments, hand carved wooden trinket tray (perfect to display my ren faire trinkets), couple of animal pins, axe earrings ($2! Would've been way overpriced at the faire), & a nutcracker mug. I also spent $50; even after splurging at faire for our honeymoon, we loved every treasure we got here! If you like ren faire and antiquing DEFINITELY stop in, we saw a few things that were sold at faire more reasonably priced here.

There were quite a number of interesting things to look at and they have a respectable assortment of tiny collectible knickknacks scattered around.

I got a tip on River Road Flea Market from an acquaintance, who became an acquaintance because I was asking about where to get furniture. Of all the stores and spots she recommended, this was my favorite and definitely the best. It was a little difficult to find because their address online says the city's name is Jefferson and my GPS only recognizes Jefferson as a parish. Now I know it's in New Orleans city, and not all the far away at all. It's located literally right by the river, separated by a grassy bank and the levee. The building is HUGE. It's like a warehouse divided into little rooms, all of which are decorated with amazing antiques and thrifty finds for a fairly reasonable price (about 125 for a desk-sized table, 150 for a wardrobe or dresser). It's not the cheapest spot, but the quality of the merchandise makes up for it. They get most of their merchandise from estate sales, apparently, and the eclectic collection certainly reflects that. Several of the rooms are themed: jewelry, records, children's furniture and toys (there was an amazing vintage rocking chair that I would buy just to anticipate having children... except I'm not), books, etc. Outside in a small gated area, they sell specialty Mexican pottery, most of which is large and would be appropriate for a yard, and wrought iron benches and trellises.
