Todd: Melissa, so we're talking about big events this week and what are some big events that you really enjoy?


Melissa: I like doing community events. I'm trying to get more involved in community events. There's a flea 1 market this weekend.


Todd: A flea market?


Melissa: Yes.


Todd: Oh, yeah.


Melissa: At the beachside, and there's going to be lots of different eco-friendly stuff going on there, so it's kind of a mix of a reuse, resell your old stuff, get new stuff for cheap.


Todd: OK, so for people who might not be familiar with the term flea market, can you explain?


Melissa: A flea market is basically a place where people can take old clothes, old utensils 2, forks, spoons, knives, things like that from the kitchen, and other housewares and either sell them or give them away at a cheap price, and it's fun because the customers ... a lot of them just like to come and look at all the different stuff and even maybe haggle 3 some prices. So try to get you to give a lower price, or if you're trying to get rid of a lot of stuff you might try to get the customer to take two things for the price of one. Things like that.


Todd: Yeah, right. Like when I was a kid I used to always go to flea marts, or flea markets with my grandparents, and I thought what was great is that you can haggle.


Melissa: Yeah.


Todd: Right? Cause in the U.S. you can't haggle at a store.


Melissa: Yeah, exactly. And I like doing that when I'm travelling ... haggling 4. Trying to get a good deal, so it's fun to do it at a flea market when you're selling your own stuff.


Todd: So, this weekend, are you selling or buying?


Melissa: Well, I actually don't have that much stuff to sell cause I've recently moved so I've gotten rid of a lot of stuff I don't need, but I do plan to bring some old pieces of clothing and things like that that I want to get rid of, and yeah, I'm really into flea markets and old thrift 5 stores and stuff like that, so I just like to see what people have. If there's something cool, I might buy it.
