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.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year for those who love all things spooky! And if that happens to be you, we have just the market for you to visit this month.
For two full weekends (October 21st and 22nd as well as October 28th and 29th), The Welcome Market will be hosting a spooky Halloween market featuring over 35 vendors!
The vendors will be selling everything from vintage clothing to houseware goods, and everything in between.
If you’re wondering, “What’s so spooky about that?” well, just like last year, the market is expected to have an assortment of Halloween-themed items available to shop. Such as handmade candles, thrifty Halloween costumes, and other handmade goods with a spooky flare.
That’s not all, though! The organizers have also advertised that there will be some “scary-good” Halloween cocktails to sip on! Who doesn’t love a little sip and shop?
The Welcome Market is proudly a Woman, POC-owned and operated organization with a passion for supporting local, small businesses, as reflected in its talented vendors.
Entry is free, so head over to 939 Queen West on the last two weekends in October, during the hours of 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. (Psst. Pets are welcome, too)!
