What a great way to spend the day! I had so much fun wandering from table to table, searching for rare finds, great bargains, and those unexpected things you never knew you needed!

One of New Jersey’s Best Flea Markets

This past weekend, I took a little trip to the Columbus Flea Market in Columbus, New Jersey, located right along Route 206. I remember going there as a kid and love going back to see what they have and what I might find.

The Columbus Flea Market has been around since 1929 and is one of the oldest and largest flea markets in the area.

There's so much to see, and you can easily spend hours just walking around, checking out the different vendors, and seeing what treasures you might come across.

Explore This Massive Flea Market

With 65 indoor retail stores, there's also an outdoor section featuring a large produce area where you can pick up fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as a garden center.

You don't want to miss the Amish market, filled with delicious baked goods, pastries, and other sweet treats.

We took a break at Pete's Pizza and enjoyed a slice of tomato pie, a great way to refuel before heading back out to explore some more.

21 top spots to take a first-time visitor to New Jersey

Someone from out-of-state, or maybe even out of the country, is visiting New Jersey for the first time. Where do you take them? After grabbing a bagel and before chowing down on a slice of Jersey pizza, be sure to treat your out-of-town guest to a day in the Garden State with some of these places in mind.
