The “This and That” Shop is a flea market. Every year, it is chock full of vintage items, glassware, small kitchen appliances and wares, office supplies, toys, sports equipment, home décor. Look for baskets and seasonal and Christmas décor.  Residents will not begin contributing items until July. We’ll add current photos of “must buy” items as we get them later this summer. Be sure to stop by the This and That Shop at the Bazaar on September 21 from 9 am-3 pm.
