AS I SAID EARLIER, you can tell by the replies in this post, that there's no fucking difference, since everybody has a different idea of what each is.  It's just a different name for the same exact fucking thing.

Yea, Swapmeets got food. The Swapmeet by my pad used to have a Taqueria. It was a little dirty though. LMAO.

R-Tistic, Swapmeets DO have food...

What I meant to say was that swap meets sell food, as far as havin lil restraunts inside...but they usually don't have groceries or food that you buy there to cook at home. They all have lil spots inside with weak food in em, but I have only been to one maybe two that had groceries such as fruits, meats, drinks, etc. etc. like you will see in flea markets.

... but since you have seen both in both flea markets, and swap meets, again.. there really is no difference, is there?

You keep stressin that is it the same thing...well I will say this. Flea Markets and Swap meets are NOT the same thing in L.A., I donno about everywhere else but in L.A. there is a difference. Outdoor swap meets are usually flea markets, but the indoor ones are different in all the ways I stated. I have seen lil food stands/restraunts in both, but I do NOT see groceries in most swap meets. Swap meets traditionally just have different things. In L.A. at least, you aren't gonna pick up the newest jerseys, shoes, clothes, hats, etc. at flea markets. Swap meets are usually aimed more towards minorities and more less hip hop fashion than a flea market is. Flea markets usually are more of outlets for clothes. So I don't know about in other states but in L.A., flea markets are NOT the same.

Then why do you keep modifying all your statements with the word "Usually" ?  LOL

Because I am not 100% on every single thing, since I haven't been to every swap meet and flea merket in L.A.
