About Cupertino's De Anza College

Looking for a fun day at a local flea market? Well, this flea market is differnet that most. The DASB Flea Market in Cupertino was created so the student body could raise funds. There are local vendors, food, along with local residents that rent out parking stalls to sell their garage sale items.

The DASB flea market is located at the De Anza College parking lots, at 21250 Stevens Creek Blvd. Cupertino CA 95014.

I remember as a kid, my mom getting us a stall to sell our toys that we no longer needed or played with. I sold my Star Wars collections... My Hot Wheels cars... My Transformers... My GI Joe's... So you know going to this type event is something where you can find treasures!

I should be heading out there, as the fle market is on... Rain or shine!
