West Valley Spring Flea Market Returns June 1

Now that the sun is shining and the birds are singing, people in the Yakima Valley are anxious to get out there and look for deals at yard sales and flea markets. They have a great one in West Valley that I've personally attended where you're bound to find something cool.

Or, if you're a vendor, it's a great location to set up shop.

The Spring Flea Market is happening on June 1st from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the West Valley Fire Admin Building at 10000 Zier Road.

I love this one as it's also a fundraiser. Proceeds go to the West Valley Fire Department.

If you're looking to vend, they only allow so many commercial vendors like if you represent Luluroe or another company. First come, first served.

There will also be food on site like pulled pork sandwiches with those funds going to the West Valley Firefighters Association.

If you're looking to vend, contact Mandy Wellner at (509)949-2843 or email Mandysue20@aol.com

Here are some photos I took at one of the last ones.

To find out more about how has the price of gas changed throughout the years, Stacker ran the numbers on the cost of a gallon of gasoline for each of the last 84 years.
