Head To New Egypt Flea Market Village In New Jersey For An Antiquing Experience That Can’t Be Missed
New Jersey is home to dozens of delightful flea markets and antique shops but some stand out for their uniqueness. One such place is the New Egypt Flea Market Village. Located in Cream Ridge, it’s open Wednesdays and Sundays from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. year-round. What makes it special is the history. It was founded in 1959 and is home to over 40 climate-controlled historic buildings (now shops). These buildings include original WWII Barracks brought in from Fort Dix in the early 1970s as well as Bordentown’s original single-room schoolhouse.
We’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life as we all practice social and physical distancing.

The historic shops are quaint and charming! They're rustic on the outside...
But even better on the inside. You'll find a wide selection of vendors selling collectibles, furniture, books, antiques, gifts, toys, tools, and tons more. We love the locally-made goodies best.
You'll find both antique and modern treasures here. Shops include Beyond The Wine Rack (wine accessories + other gifts), Etcetera Etcetera (a wide selection of used goods), A Touch Of Country, Mystique Market (candles, crystals, incense), Yores (vintage photos, crochet goods)...
The Big Kid Store (vintage toys, games, and collectibles), Annie's Oddities (handmade fairy houses), Roy's Antiques - The Hooch (veteran-owned and operated antique shop), The Old Crow Antiques & Collectibles, and so much more.
In the spring, they host a Pop Culture Yard Sale with a Big Kid Toy show. This special event is a blast! I’ve only scratched the surface, so if you want to see it all, check out the flea market’s website or visit for yourself. The new stuff is great but we can’t get enough of the antique selection! I want to go right now but I’ll have to wait until Wednesday…
