We took a Sunday stroll here and it was great! So many cool finds at great prices! For any member of our family, came home with something. So many different vendors. Several stands of food as well. Restrooms were kept up with pretty clean, there was a staff member at the entrance keeping up with it.

Great Flea Market to walk!It gets busy early in the morning 🌄 which is the best time to go. Early around 8am- 10am. Gets hot around 12 walking around. Take an umbrella, and a backpack 🎒.Awesome food/snack stands (fruit, tacos, ice cream)Wide variety of things! (Furniture, electronics, custom products, clothing, shoes, home decor, tool, lawn equipment, produce, toys, healing products, workers clothing, and etc.)People selling from there own items, and others selling brand new products.They have a few mist areas, rest stops, and restrooms 🚻Defiantly visit the man in the white van at the far corner by the entrance by the office area thats been remodeled.He has the best ice cream cones!🍦 🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦🍦You cant leave without an ice cream cone!🤔

Kind of one of my favorite flea markets. I hardly ever buy anything; mostly because my domestic partner will spend her money and then my money too. Thank the lord and all things holy they only take cash. Ill only take so much. 💵

Bought some outdoor patio way way in the back area on Sunday and the weather was hot, asked an employee by the exit gate can I drive my car in to pick up what I bought, no he said tell the person who sold you to help you??? Then walked all the way to the front entrance asked another employee said just give the your drivers license and they will lend you a cart, walked over there person there said your drivers license and I need a deposit of 10.00??? They I explain to my wife then come back I was next and there were 3 other people behind me, well doesnt he just ignore me standing right in front of him and helps everyone else???? Not very nice at all, no help what so ever just seems to me your on your own they dont want to be bothered or just plain rude!!!

Literally my favorite place to shop in the world. Gigantic, easy to navigate, spacious, and most importantly, 75% of what they sell are SECOND-HAND items, unlike most other flea markets that are basically outdoor retail stores selling new products. This means that not only will you find plenty of bargains at Mission, youll constantly come across hidden treasures and interesting items. And combine it with the very friendly people and myriad of great food, snacks, drinks, and music, its not just a flea market, its an experience

$2 per person to get in. Always a great time w the family. Toys are inexpensive so my son gets most of what he ask for and he’s happy happy. Always find treasures. Last time I went they did raffles for gift cards, that was nice of them.

Absolutely a fun place to buy items, walk around looking at items, buy from vegetable and fruit vendors, or even have a lunch. And, the entrance fee is only $2 a person and free parking. They are open Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I prefer Sundays as there are more vendors, and bigger item selection. For me, it works great to go there right after breakfast and return home with my bought treasures by lunch.

The place was well later out, nice paved paths between the booths. The restrooms were very clean. There was a wide variety of goods and foods available. I could not find what I was looking for, but I did find items I needed and purchased Made several connections for future purchases. Start early to get a good parking place, which is free with a $2 entry fee.

I’ve been coming to this place for quite a while now. I’ve found some great bargains and it’s an enjoyable experience up until today. We were walking up to pay and an employee approached us saying that we didn’t have to wait in line seeing that the line was long. That we could just pay with him and go through. The others that were with me decided to just wait in line seeing that we were next. So we just passed his offer up. The employee got upset and called us “babosos” that upset us. There was no need to offend us just because we didn’t want to pay him and avoid the line. It infuriated me so I went up to him and told him to show us some respect we did nothing to receive that type of treatment. He started to argue and act up trying to take his vest off acting like he wanted to fight. We ignored him and proceeded to pay. As we were walking away he said “I’ll meet you inside don’t worry” threatening us. I proceeded and walked to the office to file a complaint on their employee and told the manager what happened she said she’d talk to him. Fast forward a couple minutes later and this employee showed up at the post we were looking and stopped and started arguing again saying if we had an issue and changing up the story saying we called him black. Nobody mentioned anything of that matter. He then said he would wait outside for me when I came out. When he left I went again and spoke to the manager once again and told her he had followed us all the way where we were at she told us she was going to wait until the end of the day to get his attention she clearly did nothing the first time I came to her. This is truly infuriating and upsetting the type of unprofessionalism from their employee and their manager is saddening. I’ve been a visitor of this flea market for ages but not anymore. Hopefully they address the poor conduct of their employee and choose wisely who they hire.In response to your comment: With all due respect I explained not only to you but your manager present that day what happened and what your so called “respectful employee” called us. for no reason. Not even after he ofended us did we racially insult him we are honest, hard working people and believe that everyone should be treated equally with the respect and dignity that they deserve. Like i said we ignored him and he still decided to follow us inside. None the less don’t worry we won’t bother coming to this place ever again; where so called fine employees lack respect for their guest. I would much rather take my business and free time somewhere where guest are treated politely and I’m actually going to enjoy my time without being insulted. Thanks

There was barely anything here. I had to paid $4 for my friend and I just to get in. There were only a few stalls and they mainly sell old second handed junks. Only one shop offer touristy merchandise but limited options. It was super hot and we didn’t see anything worth our while.

The disabled people that ride their motorized carts ( that they walk to their car with and toss in their cars like strongmen ) for hours are always almost running over people . Alot of smokers walking around stinking up the place . The pastor taco truck at the west end of row H? has really gone downhill . Their tacos stunk rancid last time I tried to eat them . The good side, its still 2 bucks to get in and some good deals .

My family and I are from Laredo, and weve been coming to this flea market since 1992.If you want new stuff, your first choice should not be a flea market, but they do sell new products in the original packaging.I myself come to this flea market above all others because of the second hand items that are to be found.My main interest is antiques and used, quality, bicycles.We have been buying, Trek, Specialized, Giant, Bianchi, Diamondback, and a few others, for about six years now. We buy them do any work needed and re sell them in Laredo.On the rare occasion we dont find anything on our list, its still a pleasant day outdoors, and there are food and beverage vendors to make the day pleasant.They are open Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday.Saturday is the day with the least vendors present. We have had very good luck on Wednesday, and Sunday.Great Job, Mission Open Air Market.Henry.

Open air market, the idea of walking for excercise always seems a little rediculous; until I started walking here.If you use a step counter and try to walk the entire market its a little more than half a mile.Lots of things to look at while you walk, you can train your eyes to scan items as you walk and if something piques your curiosity, you can make a vendor an offer.While some vendors are trying to sell things close to retail price, others are practically giving things away pennies on the dollar.Wendsday is a good time, because it breaks up the week.You can save lots of money, and give the entrepreneur a helping hand.There are shows on TV, about making money this way and is rapidly making it a trendy way to make extra cash. Two dollars to get in, Fifteen if you want to set up a table, lots of venders are regulars mixed with lots of random garage sale entrepreneurs. Iconic Mexican staple items makes it great for tourists to pick up lots of souveners on the cheap.

I enjoy the Mission Market during the 2020 winter holidays. Because they have raffles for cash prizes and Christmas hams. ***Show up at 10 am on Sunday and go toward the back at section L89. That is when and where you find the biggest bargains.**** Some vendors start selling their wares for one buck. You will find picnic baskets and Miami Dolphins sports pennants like I did.

Speaking as a first-time vendor, it was a relatively easy process. The staff was helpful and guided me where to go. I could drive in and sell right from my truck. Tips: if you need electricity, pay for it up front and pick a booth that has an outlet, as not all do. Bring hangars and zip ties if you need to hang up clothes. A table was provided, but I should have brought an extra one too. And bring cash with plenty of small bills and change.Im still cleaning out my storage, so maybe Ill see yall there!
