Went To Traders' Village

Hubby and I went to Traders’ Village a couple of times. The first time we went there was seven years ago with my step-daughter and her family. We were supposed to go to the State Fair in Dallas but then we decided to go to Traders’ Village instead. I bought some nice stuffs there like curtains and weights for my work-out. The second time we went there was 3 years ago and I bought some stuffs like 3 sets of curtains with different styles and colors. The reason I love going there is that there were trade show displays worth seeing and the price there is a lot cheaper than in the malls or stores. In fact, that place was so crowded and most merchants there are Mexicans. Our grandson call that place Little Mexico, LOL!


We roamed around the place and I’ve seen some shirts, graphics and banners hanging in a decorative truss in some of the market stalls there. I bought some t-shirts with Texas prints in it and sent it to my siblings in my homeland. They were cheap. I bought 3 shirts for 10 bucks. Not bad at all.


I’ve also seen some logo floor mats on sale there and I thought it would be nice for our church to have that as an entry mat with a logo or message printed on them. They come in larger sizes too and it can be used as cheap printed flooring.


The exhibit booths were full of displays of the stuffs that those merchants sell. We went from one booth to another and we feasted our eyes looking at the merchants’ displays. We ended up buying a few stuffs that we didn't plan to buy but we did not spend beyond our budget. It’s nice to splurge once in a while but then hubby and I spend our money wisely. We only buy the things that we need.
