Your 2012 Big Flea Thank You Flyers

There’s no way we could thank everyone who made the Flea possible. But with these flyers, we can sure try! (Click the image for larger version.)

What it looks like when the Flea becomes free

Just before 2 p.m., the Flea turns out all shoppers. A few minutes later, the doors are opened, and everything left over is free. Here’s what free looks like.

Big Flea: Know before you go

Saturday’s the big day! Here’s the schedule.

8 a.m.: Early admission ($10 fee)

9 a.m.: General admission (free)

Noon: Everything is 50 percent off

2 p.m.: Everything left is FREE

We’ve been posting pictures from Friday’s setup on our Facebook page, so you can get a sense of some of the stuff we’ll have for sale.

The Flea’s at the Mount Vernon Recreation Center, 2701 Commonwealth Ave., Alexandria, Va. Metro: Blue or Yellow Lines to Braddock Road, take the 10A or 10B bus to Hume Avenue.

The Flea takes cash and credit cards.

And so it begins…

Art Witebsky and Cynthia Webster begin Big Flea setup on Friday morning.
