I recently passed through Canton Texas for the first time in what has to be 30+ years…read more Back in the 60s,they formalized what they called first Monday Trade days. Basically a swap meet where people came from far and wide to buy sell and trade mostly useful stuff. Antiques,tools,etc. Over the years it grew bigger and bigger gradually loosing its focus and selling more and more junk. I haven't been in decades but could see how spread out all the sales sites have become. It's interesting one time I'm told but nothing like it used to be.

It truly lives up to the hype. It's a massive flea market with everything from vintage treasures to…read moretotally random finds if you're looking for something unique, you'll probably find it here. We arrived around 11am (they open at 8 I believe). Parking was organized with staff directing traffic, and it cost $10 cash. There were tons of unique vendors, and we ended up buying tea-infused whiskey, moonshine cider, seasonings, and plenty of treats. Many vendors offer samples, which makes it fun (and hard not to buy everything). There's no shortage of food options. We spent about 5 hours there and walked around 15,000 steps. You can rent scooters, wagons, or shopping carts, which is helpful. Restrooms were clean with attendants and changing tables. There are covered areas and lots of shade trees, so even at 80° it felt comfortable. Pet friendly too we brought our fur baby. We'll definitely be back.

So this is not really my type of joint, but this store is quite well done…read more You are greeting by the sweet smells that waft in the air upon entering...that take you to another place and time. A simpler time. With simple pleasures. Shop owners Carolyn West and Joan Hallmark bring a touch of class to the country in this shop full of Antique furniture, china, silver, lace doilies, candles, and other things that will class up your place, or make a great gift or treat for someone you care about. Even if it is not your style, they are worth checking out in Downtown Ben Wheeler.

Clean and Sheek! Ok…read moreso if I had unlimited monies.....like rich rich, I would absolutely decorate my entire house (that I do not have yet) with the fabulous things in this boutique. First of all it smells divine inside and there are employees throughout the store to help you find things and to ask questions too. I love not having to look and look for an employee to ask a question to...they are just right there. But it did also make me question, "do they have a lot of thefts?" There are a lot of whites and just really classy and comfy bed linens and decor and clothes. While leaving First Monday we stopped here and glad we did, although of course I didnt buy anything. :( This is off the busy street, I believe hwy 19. When we got into the parking lot there were hundreds of dead crickets. It was a crunchy walk inside. I dont mind it because if they were alive there would have been a lot of freaking out females running like crazy people to and from their cars. Thank you for taking care of the pests!

This store is beautiful, from the moment you enter there is beauty. If you like cottage and…read morefarmhouse this is your store. It's done in a classy way not the cheap looking stuff from everywhere. They gave good buyers and unique items. Prices were good they had different price points from average to high. Can't wait to come back.

This place adjoins the Trade Days property and is an indoor version of Trade Days. Indoors means…read moreit has air-conditioning and that was a welcome thing after spending several hours out in the sun at Trade Days. This places hours and days mirror the Trade Day hours, so if you are going to one you might as well go to the other. Also, you don't have to pay for parking here! There is a great selection of merchandise and vendors here: many of them used to do the outside market at Trade Days, but decided to move indoors. I found better pricing and value inside the Canton Marketplace than I found at Trade Days, in fact, my car was literally full of things I bought here when I l

I have been at Canton Marketplace on and off over the last 7 years. I moved my entire antique store back to Canton Marketplace. I would not have done this if I didn't have faith in how they are running things. It is so nice to have accessible management!!!
