hey thunder, I checked out the events that golden goose posted, i think it is neat about the halloween candy idea, how about if they had a childrens costume contest? and where the garage area is of golden goose would makea great walk through haunted house just an idea to pas to ya.. So how is golden goose doing, is the place filling up will good merchandise venders?
Hmmm, the garage area are still being used for auto repairs, etc. I doubt it will be possible to clear it out for haunted attraction. Maybe another area of the building? Event Center has space. I will bring this up at the next Vendors meeting and talk to the owner about it. The children's costume contest is a great idea and I will suggest it.
We had some new vendors moved in and one in progress to set up. Doing good overall.
Another new vendor preparing to move in soon. I was told she will be selling silk flowers arrangement and other general items. Maybe real flowers? I dunno. My guess a florist shop or something.
I'm posting this for a friend (on my own free will), because he has a wife and 6 children. Last week, he put in 70 hours at work, so I'm hoping he sells these real soon to help them with money for the children (and Christmas is coming up). So, if anyone is interested, please plan a trip for a visit. These are set up (showcase) in empty booths and ready for sale.

His name is Jimmy. Come see me in my booth for assistance and I will introduce you to him. If you are afraid of meeting me (some people on here are afraid of meeting me), just ask for Alana in The Ginger Gypsy booth (next to skillets) and she will direct you to Jimmy. Your referral code is Thunder.
Thanks for looking and considering these fine, oh so fine, furniture priced to fit your budget!
Think of the children. The amazing gifts they will receive for Christmas this year. :-)
We had a great morning walking around golden goose, thank you thunder, my kids love the beanies, right now they are arguing who gets what my son loved the train area, my wife picked out a tart at the candle shop you showed us. Golden goose has changed a lot since i last visited a couple months ago. A lot more venders and more organized I noticed. Im still kinda suprised that there is no dog gift collectables. I notice golden goose is pet friendly. I have 3 boston terriers and my wife and I collect boston terrier items like blankets, pillows figurines etc. I know at one point 10 years ago at golden goose there was a booth that had a lot of the dog breed collectables.
All in all I think golden goose is climbing back up there to its old heyday time period, hope it keeps going and hopefully by the time x-mas rolls around the place is packed! oh p.s my wife loves the lucky bamboo plant she picked out. thanks again
No problem. Nice meeting you all. I didn't realize Jerry was also working on the small trains, so only one track was operating. We have a lady that makes pet clothes, but she may also sell other pet items. There was small picture frames of different breeds, so I am considering ordering each of all and have her sell them (she pay me wholesale prices). She don't do computers, so I can show her stuff and she pick out what she like, etc.
We had a big vendor moved in yesterday, but they also sell leather stuff (which I saw was damn nice), but there was a complaint of the new vendor selling leather stuff being right across the aisle from another vendor selling leather stuff. So, the new vendor had to get out (no big booth available), but they will return when space is built for them near my area.
We are working on it. Just takes time.
Hope they don't rip the beanies apart fighting over them. :-)
Jesseda, if they are still fighting over it, maybe some games to determine winner that whole family can play. Winner each time get to pick one they want. :-)
Okay, planning ahead, always important to plan ahead. Gotta plan ahead. That time upon us when we all will be getting busy. Busy, busy, busy. Major holidays... Up next is Halloween. Jesseda want something fun for the kids for Halloween. So, what to do. I would like to know if anyone, oh please everyone who can help me out here, if anyone have anything to donate for Halloween? Not to sell or give away. Just donate for borrow use. I can talk with the guys about working the next booth to mine to set up a mini Halloween attraction. A temp wall to divide it as a walkway U shape where people enter and exit. Cover it all up. I need the goodies to stock with. Anything. Freaky things. Fog machine. Lights. Scary sounds, whatever to help me fix it up. I'm thinking of only charging a dollar each person for a short walk through and the funds go toward the Vendors Association to save up for other events.
Christmas. Anyone got any decorations not wanting or needing? Anything to decorate throughout the mall. I can buy (will be reimbursed) decorations, also searching for anything we can use. I will speak about setting up the next booth for Santa picture taking, so I wonder if anyone have any Polaroid camera to borrow? And maybe films? May have to look up on that. Be quick that way unless people want digital, then that will cost me with printing, etc.
I'm going to try to recruit vendors to get on board for Christmas video. I already got a song selected, so next month, I am going to download it and put on disc. Teach them signs to their assigned verses and do several videos (to merge all together). I know how the song goes, the pace, everything...as I have performed it myself before.
Okay, they want a video for Labor Day. This Saturday, I am going to do a short video for the free hot dogs, so this is when everyone come out (you too, Jesseda and the whole family) for the free hot dogs. :-) We have Thanksgiving with free turkey giveaway, Veteran's Day, etc.
Main focus for me is Halloween and Christmas. I want to get all the help I can do to make Oklahoma's #1 market real nice and fun. Send me a PM or email to ThunderOKC@aol.com if anything can help me. Really hope I can put it all together or else it'll be my sliced or hung neck on the line. :-O
Hey thunder, the kids ar not fighting anymore, they are now at peace with what each got lol. On the decorating thing, I use to sell inside craft malls back before marriage and kids, the owner of the place had a fun contest on to see who can have the most festive decorated booth and that person would win one month free rent. Its a thought to pass along to the golden goose owner, i know a lot of venders at the place i was at went all out decorating their booths to try and win, and the customers liked it all!!
Passed that on and we will be doing that.
We will also be doing pumpkin carving contest, so start hunting for those perfect pumpkins!
We are searching for sponsorship to set up a major haunted attraction with the use of the Events Center at the Golden Goose Flea Market in Midwest City. The place to be to shop at Oklahoma's #1 flea market! Now, lets make it SHOCKING SCARY at the Goose!
Special Recognition
Cashion Candle Shop are a new Vendor and I'd like to present some pictures of the homemade dessert candles. Jesseda is a living witness as to how awesome these are. His wife bought one recently. Yes, the lady there made them!
I will update their page with fresh pictures soon.
Does anyone have a couple of black blankets? Specifically black velvet material or something really soft. Must be all black. I'd like to borrow a couple to cover the walls of an available empty booth for video performance. Or direct me to where I can buy a couple at affordable prices?
My wife did buy from the cashion candle shop, I dont know what fragrance she bought but it smells really good and the fragrance drifts around the house, so its not one of those candles that you have to be up close to it to smell the fragrance
Here is more pictures of the table and chairs. Jimmy, his wife, and their 6 kids are at a hotel. Something happened with their house. Money is running out and I'm trying to sell these furniture for them to keep them (especially the children) off the street. Please, if anyone is in the market for a nice dining set or bedroom set, consider these. Think of the children...the heat wave...we don't want them going through such crisis as I did.
Table complete set REDUCED to Shocking Low $400.
Bed complete set REDUCED to Shocking Low $500.
The signs said to check with lady in The Gypsy Ginger booth, but come see me instead. If afraid to see me, please declare referral code Thunder to the lady instead. Thanks!
COME ON DOWN to your #1 favorite market during the Labor Day weekend on September 3rd and 4th for FREE HOT DOGS and FREEZE/KOOL POPS!!!! Many vendors will be having sales!!!
Comment on the above video, please. :-)
It has come to my attention that the Goose's name is Kirby, not Curby.
In other news, Mr DVD's booth is expanding!
The video was funny. You matched the music to it very well. I'll give you an A for it. No A+ for YOU, buddy. :-P
If you can tell me honestly that there was no way you could have improved it, I'll add the +. :-D
Sno Cones truck will be there on the 3rd. I do not know what time, because two weekends ago, they showed up several hours late. So, when you are there, lets hope the truck is there by then.
ATTENTION ABLE AGENTS, HEALTH DEPT AGENTS, ATTENTION!!!
You all are not authorized or allowed to approach the property. The truck will not be shut down!!! We have armed security forces with loaded shotguns and will be prepared to defend the market, vendors, and customers.

Vendor of the Month

I agree with the Hawg, Thunder. Funny, yes, cool, no. :-P
Well, I'd love it if everyone could come on down to the market. Maybe set up an OKCTalk group field trip? We're giving away 500+ weenies, 500+ buns, 500+ pops, and toppings for the weenies. Come and have a good time!
