I’m super excited to announce that we have a new feature – blog post Google Maps. We’ve gone through all of our old posts and pinned every location we talk about, whether it be an antique store or a restaurant and everything in-between – we’ve listed it.

Harriet’s Box of 78RPM recordsPosted by: ryan @ 9:24 am in records & music, vintage finds |
I was born in the 80’s so I never really had the chance to listen to records growing up. By the time I developed my diverse taste in music, CDs were all the rage and my father had put most of his vinyl collection away. Over the years, I’ve become more of an audiophile and decided to begin listening to vinyl records. I purchased my first turntable (a Technics SL1200 MK2) and was floored by the sound. From that point on, I was completely hooked and began to buy lots of new LPs from my favorite artists. After a month or so, I began searching for vinyl on Craigslist and came across an ad for over a hundred old 78rpm LPs for a mere $20.
TWENTY DOLLARS.
At 20 cents a record I couldnt go wrong and immediately called the seller.

Vancouver Flea Markets & Antique FairsPosted by: naomi @ 3:41 pm in events |
For those of you local to Vancouver, one of my favorite places to hunt for antiques and one-of-a-kind items is at the 21st Century Promotions Flea Market & Antique Fair. They have monthly events around the Lower Mainland and I always find tons of unique things for the house, stuff to fuel my pyrex obsession and prints to hang on my walls. It’s also great to be in a room full of knowledgeable people who have a passion for vintage items and other old things.
The last one just passed (July 19) so mark your calendars for August 29 and 30 for the Burnaby Lake Antiques Fair from 10am to 5pm. Entry is $6 at the door.
