Toronto is getting a thrift market this month where everything will be free!
The market in question, REmarket, is held by the St. Lawrence Neighborhood Association Waste Reduction Group to reduce waste in the community.
On the first day of the 2-day event, there will be a market called FREEmarket where anyone can come in and take whatever they want from the available selection of donations and/or make donations at the same time.
Your ‘trash’ could be someone else’s treasure and vice versa!
The REmarket event is being held on January 24th and 25th at the St. Lawrence Market Tent. The free market portion is on the 24th from 10AM to 7PM.
Repair Café Toronto will also be fixing clothing, jewellery, computers, home electronics, toys, and more on location!
Items that are donated and usable will be included in the FreeMarket or will be redistributed, refurbished, or upcycled by its charity partners, including the Salvation Army.
Items accepted for donation (and up for grabs) include clothing, shoes, accessories, household items, books, toys, and more. For more details, click here.

There are so many markets in the city it’s hard to choose which ones to actually go to. Well if you’re looking to go to a market and spend absolutely nothing we’ve got you covered. This upcoming Saturday, April 7 visitors to Campbell Park will get to experience the “April Really Really Free Market“. We think the name is pretty self-explanatory but at the Campbell Park Free Market – everything is free. No money or trading necessary. It’s a truly unique way to get some great stuff if you’re looking to save your money or just experience something fun and unique.
How Does The Market Work?
If you are looking to shop the market, you simply have to show up to the market and enjoy yourself. The market opens at 10:00 am and runs until 4:00 pm. There is a limit of one shopping bag per family in order to ensure everyone gets their fair crack at all the great free stuff. If you are looking to give away some personal items, you can bring your stuff to the market before 3:00 pm. The organizers simply ask that you bring manageable items – no large furniture or extremely heavy items.
After 3:o0pm the market ditches all rules and you can pretty much take as much as you want.
