Anybody interested in checking out the Locke St Festival next weekend (Sept 11)? There might be interesting paraphernalia we could salvage from there, or at the very least, something to do!

I've gotta check thats going on that day for me. But I can see giving it a looksee. Even if theres some pieces that could be put together. Have you been to "out of the past" on King St.?

I have not. I think I saw it at some point while wandering around (Hamilton is kinda huge that I get tired even just moseying through). It's not fun shopping by myself though.

It's a wonderful little second hand store. Always good for a look-see. It's a few blocks from Jackson Square but still walking distant for sure.

    The transit system is pretty good in Hamilton. I am still exploring the whole downtown and Ottawa Street will be my next grand adventure~ And I do agree shopping by yourself is not too fun. It's good to have a second pair of eyes when on the hunt for treasures!

One of the members of this site has a shop on Locke St that has some items of interest. Spencers Merchantile.

Hmm.. I think that would be a fabulous adventure for sure. I'd love to find some good watch pieces I could use for crafts.  What member has this shop?

Thank you, St. John.    Sorry to be coming late to this discussion -- it's us, Spencer's Mercantile, at 233 Locke Street South.  No watch pieces, sorry, but lots of cool and shiny stuff to hopefully pique your interest... or check our website at spencersmercantile.com.

Well... I can't speak for everyone... but I am sure going to make a trip in October to come see the store! I looooove the knee socks!
