The return of summer also means the return of the flea markets (vides-greniers and brocantes) that enliven spring weekends in France, with their hidden treasures (or trinkets destined for the garbage can) to be unearthed. From antique toys to forgotten books and vintage clothes, these markets are a veritable paradise for bargain hunters. And even in the age of Vinted and Bon Coin, there's nothing like a good surprise find!
