Where did everyone go?
Today was a very interesting day. It seems that the Flea Market is going through some changes. So much that the Flea Market failed to disclose some information about occupancy plans. There were many spaces around me that were reserved, but none of the occupants had moved in yet. They are scheduled for later this week. So it was a ghost town on this side of the Flea Market. We held our ground, but as most Saturdays go there was not the volume of people we were expecting. We were quite bummed as our product rocks! Of course.
Some good news is that I was listening to the radio when Wild 94.9 was looking for the 94 caller to win some Black Eyed Peas ticket and exclusive back stage passes to meet Fergie and Will-I-Am. Of course I had to give it a try. I happened to be caller 63, 75, and caller 94! Yep, I won the tickets. Thanks Dreena. I was so happy and of course called my wife Karla to give her the good news. But the surprises don’t stop there. We really wanted to take Robert as he is also a big fan. Later that afternoon the contest was open to the 94th caller. And guess what? Karla was the 94th caller and won tickets too. Thanks Chino. So I am crossing my fingers and hoping we will get both sets of tickets.
We also meet some great people like our fellow clothing sellers Carmen and her daughter Irene. Irene got a special Nor-Cal Star (black/purple) with glitter to match her outfit that just made her day. I hope you enjoy the attention everyone gave you Irene. There were also a few people asking if we do parties. Of course we do. If you are interested, simply contact us with all the details. Please plan to give us some notice as we are currently booking our weekends at the Flea. Don’t forget to check out our photos of our happy customers to get an idea of what to expect.
So that about wraps it up. I really hope that many more people will pass by our booth tomorrow.
