    The yellow booth was mine. I got a ton of comments on my channel today telling me my booth was featured on your video, so I figured I’d check it out. This video is dope! Thanks for checking out the booth!
  • @BDBD16
    Every time you say "...like a mini mall...." that song pops in my head.
  • @chrislongbeard
    I had a booth in a place similar to this. Never broke even at the end of the month. But it was a good tax write off.
  • @dailyblunts3935
    Every time you said it was "like a mini mall" I thought of that flea market montgomery video that was a meme like a decade and a half ago.
  • @Larry
    0:10 It's just like a mini mall you say? :D
  • @natelan69420
    YOU JUST GOT A SHOUT-OUT FROM LINUS TECH TIPS ON HIS MOST RECENT WAN SHOW!!! WOOT!!!
  • @kittikoko
    So cool. It's like a mini museum where you can actually buy the exhibits!
  • @sherrybell3924
    Denny's: I thought we were the only people hanging out at Denny's in the middle of the night drinking coffee and smoking cigs back in the day (in the 80s in Ohio.)
  • I needed this particularly here as a Texan where we had a week-long hell freeze
  • @chm77777
    Found your channel a few days ago and now I'm thinking this is someone I would hang out with.
  • that yellow booth with the nerf guns is non other than Tendos booth! check him out on youtube. he has a channel on a ton of thrifting and on his booth, as well as tons of others stuff. Edit; not sure if this is mentioned later in the video or in the comments somewhere but yeah!

    “It’s just like a mini mall!” Did anyone else catch that? Ah, memories.
  • @SearsCool
    It's nice that some stores don't demolish the old classic stores. It's interesting Payless Cashways went bankrupt the day before 9/11
  • @misterhat5823
    Frostie makes a decent blue cream soda. That's the only one I've tried.
  • @Rogue849
    Feels like I could spend a whole afternoon poking around this place
  • I remember when Chandler was being built in the early 90s, used to be just desert, before the Styrofoam & Chicken Wire houses started going in...

    Thank you for bringing us this video, it is much appreciated. It is great to see what people with some imagination can do with an otherwise moribund property. Congratulations are given to the owners and a great addition for the local community as well as those from further afield. Long may this enterprise continue.
