FIRST-TIMER TIPS
SHOP IT LIKE
A REGULAR
ARRIVE BY 8AM
Cooler weather, easy parking, and first pick of the fresh finds before the crowd rolls in.
BRING SMALL CASH
Most vendors take cash, and small bills make haggling and quick buys a breeze.
WEAR COMFY SHOES
The market is big and you’ll walk a lot of aisles — dress for a morning on your feet.
PACK A BAG & WATER
A tote or cart for your finds and a bottle of water keep the day easy and fun.
DO A FULL LAP FIRST
Aisles can feel like a maze. Walk the whole market once, then circle back for the winners.
DON’T BE SHY TO HAGGLE
A friendly offer is expected here. Bundle a few items and ask for a better price.
SEE YOU
THIS WEEKEND
Saturday and Sunday, 7am to 3pm. Bring the family, some cash, and an empty bag — you’ll leave with it full!
Southern California’s weekend tradition since 1970.
