Born2 I didn't find it that expensive (Remember it is a fund raiser!)
Costume lots of stuff, from old Playbills (at about$1 to props from shows now running ) that stuff can be pricey. Last year they had some of the swimfins from Mamma Mia for $50 these were signed by the cast.

Its my favorite day of the whole year!!
No, I don't usually find it expensive. I mean its going to a fantastic cause, so you really can't complain.
And hang on, when did you win the discus?

Posted: 8/1/05 at 8:08pmThis year is going to be my first and I'm sooooo excited! I'm sort of afraid b/c I know I'm going to want everything. Mixing shopping and Broadway together is a VERY dangerous thing!

Posted: 8/1/05 at 8:26pmI know its a fund raiser, and I bought over $500 dollars of stuff last year, but a lot of it was more money than it was they year before. For instance they were charging $40 bucks for a pic with a puppet from Avenue Q, the year before they had the same kind of picture thing for a different show for $20, and they had old pointe shoes from Phantom for $50, the year before I bought a bunch for $20 bucks each. I'm really not complaining, I am just saying, I love the flea market, its one of my favorite days of the year. I can't wait!

I LOVE the flea market 
and I'll have to miss it for the second year in a row because I have a wedding to attend that day. I should have replied with a NO.

Years ago, I bought a friend of mine who had cancer and was gravely ill at the time a cast jacket from "Anything Goes" because she was obsessed with that show. I am happy to report that she made a miraculous recovery and still wears that jacket to this day! It was one of the best things I ever bought for anyone.
I think it's most fun when you can buy stuff that they don't sell at the merchandise booth in the theatres.
