My girls and I love doing the rounds of the local markets, fetes and garage sales - and one of the best that we have found is the Marymead garage sales (held 2-3 times a year - check the website for dates) and annual fete (in November). The quality is high and the prices are a steal. My four year old especially loves the toy stall - this year we got a whole box of toys, party decorations and puzzles for $10 (some things were still new in their box). There is entertainment, food and fun for all of the family. Plus, you are helping to raise money for a great cause - Marymead is a not-for-profit organisation helping disadvantage children and families.
