If you want to shop ’til you drop, get lots of bargains and have a great time, then you need to go to First Monday Trade Days in Canton Texas. Here is a little of the history we got from http://www.firstmondaycanton.com (lots of other information on this site - check it out).
“One weekend every month, a peaceful, friendly East Texas town (population 5,100) turns into THE biggest open-air trade days in the world.It all began in the 1850s when the District Judge stopped in Canton on the first Monday of every month to hold court sessions, many brought goods, produce, and livestock with them to buy, sell or trade. By 1965, First Monday had outgrown the downtown square and was moved to six acres just two blocks north of the courthouse. What started by chance more than a century ago in an event you must experience to believe! Now, First Monday Trade Days hosts up to 7,000 vendors and as many as 300,000 visitors.First Monday Trade Days takes place Thursday through Sunday before the first Monday of every month”.
