Hötorget's market trade. Is it just me or has Hötorget Torghandel lost a bit in recent years? Now I'm not here too often, but I still think that there used to be more stalls with flowers, fruit and vegetables and fewer with bags and wallets in fake leather? Over the years, I've still made some nice clips here. I have gotten flowers at much better prices than at other market traders (and they last longer!) Among other things, I bought flowers for my sister-in-law's wedding here and arranged my own table decorations and for a cinema premiere where I also arranged the flowers. Sure, it's a bit annoying when the sellers are screaming for you, but I just try to ignore it and stick to what I want. I think Sundays have been the best - when there is a big flea market. More crap in one place is hard to find, but if you have patience, there are real nuggets here to dig up! I've found Höganäs pots, trays in gold, bowls in brass, nice old boxes and wood and beautiful plate coasters in metal with a coating of gold that sickly enough cost 10 SEK each (the similar ones in plastic that are available to buy cost around 100 SEK / each. So the opportunity for really good bargains for those who have the energy to look around!
