Reputed to be the South's biggest flea market, Fort Lauderdale's Swap Shop is an experience all in itself. You can't miss the bright yellow people bridge over Sunrise Boulevard which beckons passers-by to come on in and be surprised. Forget the malls and all that's new and shiny! This is an unbelievable place to find that special addition to your collection, or even be inspired to start a new one! With more than 2000 eager vendors that spans about 75 acres, there's something to delight everyone who comes in. And don't just plan on an afternoon of shopping as there is an added draw: "The World's Largest" 14-screen drive-in movie theater, which has lined up traffic for years. Definitely a must do if traveling with the family. Head for the Swap Shop where oldies are goodies!
