There's gonna be TONS of stuff that you aren't gonna be interested in but sprinkled in between all that you'll find some real gems. I've never come home empty handed, but yes...paying $10 to get in kinda sucks. I'm pretty sure I'm going and I do recommend you go too. Look for me in an Oklahoma shaped cowboy hat with a PBR pin up front!Mr. Modtomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16804031065414619749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-79715999780300569082012-05-24T15:47:43.523-05:002012-05-24T15:47:43.523-05:00Hi HT.

I've never been, some people told me they have good stuff, but since it costs money, not sure if I want to risk it to find overpriced stuff, or not enough retro/vintage items.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-55808571329569761262012-05-24T08:58:50.619-05:002012-05-24T08:58:50.619-05:00I used to live in San Diego and would go to Tijuan...I used to live in San Diego and would go to Tijuana quite often. The vendors wanted you to haggle on price - I didn't buy much because I don't like doing that either. I think $2 is reasonable for the sugar bowl but $7 is a little steep. The tiki plaques are awesome. I have been finding a lot of tiki mugs lately but I would like to stumble onto some "art"!Hunting Tigresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06634751062464937129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-76645694998081085392012-05-24T07:25:14.607-05:002012-05-24T07:25:14.607-05:00I hate haggling too...that is why I take a friend ...I hate haggling too...that is why I take a friend to do that!
