America’s Garden State was once seen as the not-so-cool neighbour of nearby New York – a place where Jersey Shore references reigned and the elite of the Big Apple wouldn’t be seen dead – but not any longer.

New Jersey has become a destination in its own right and, as well as boasting some incredible scenery, amazing beaches and a booming nightlife, the State has become something of a shopping mecca. From quirky stores and unusual boutiques to antiques fairs, vintage shows and farmers markets, New Jersey is full of unique locations for shoppers who like to browse and take home a bargain. Here is our top pick of the best flea markets in New Jersey:

1. Berlin Farmer’s Market
