Labor Day Weekend Antique Show Calendar
If you can't afford that weekend at the beach this year, you can always afford to poke around for hidden treasures at a local antique fair! (unless you have very expensive Honus Wagner baseball card or Tiffany vase taste...in which case, you can probably afford a vacation anyway!)
Happy hunting!
