I love this mall, haven't been here in years since I don't live in Mississauga anymore. It's crazy to see what they have in there now, but at the same time still looks and feels the same. I use to think the Flea Market was the coolest place ever as a kid. My brother had a friend that worked down there selling CDs.
Nowhere as crowded as it used to be in the 1980’s when you had anchor tenants Knob Hill Farms and Sears. I still remember the arcade game cabinets along the path between Knob Hill Farms and the rest of the mall - Kung Fu Master and Ghosts ‘N Goblins.
These “outlet malls” in Canada are all a joke. There’s no cheaper prices. You pay the same prices there you’d pay at a “regular mall”. They just put a bunch of “sale signs” in the windows hoping you’re dumb enough to think you’re getting a big deal. Not a bad mall though store selection wise for a small outlet mall just outside of Toronto.
My late wife would drag me to that mall, she loved Laura, would walk around that mall with no real interest - miss her dearly and would "loved" to be dragged back there again with her. When I moved out on my own, I shopped once at a grocery store there called Knob Hills Farm - 50 pounds of potatoes..lol..thought it was a deal - ate likely 2 potatoes from that bag...
@davenowesintoronto it was in the flea market area.. if you caught one you can keep it. They would charge you for cutting it up so you can take home to eat.. this was probably 45 years ago? I was 5 or 6 years old..
I'm soured on flea markets. Here in Quebec City I got 6 PS2 consoles and not one of them worked add to that all of the heavily scratched discs-just a worthless pile of old junk!

This Mall have quite the history
hi thanks for sharing
You're welcome
Proudly Canadian. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks
It was once a great outlet mall..buses would come from the USA. Even the Flea market is not what it once was. It's never busy😂
I don't know what went wrong with Dixie outlet mall it was once busy now it's just empty 98% of the time
Very few malls are as busy as they once were. This was mall was pretty grungy back in the 80's, I'm actually surprised it's still around be honest.

I plan to get a few items there. I will check the prices.

Haven’t been there in about a decade. Kind of bummed it hasn’t got a renovation. Even if it was a little one. Crazy that people still go here.
It's in a good location
Can’t believe that Tim Hortons is gone from the area off mall
It's true
I don't know how long ago but they actually had a pool with fish stocked in it and you would pay to fish
I would have liked to see that. Hope there was no smell.
No the fish are at the Mississauga Flea Market

I never heard that, but im sure you maybe correct. @MrNutz52
tbh i dont want them to renovate this it reminds me of the early 2000s malls where much more simple
Money talks

There are a few characters that sell at Flea markets
I'm shocked to see this mall that busy. The flee market is overpriced junk. You wont be able to flip anything from there.
The mall is still holding on
