Tuesday, April 15, 2025: For this date, I went to a totally different business for retail: an antiques & collectibles store—but what a store it was! The Haddon Heights Antique Center, 531 Clements Bridge Road (at the corner of East Atlantic Avenue), Barrington (Camden County), New Jersey (856-546-0555), was an antique and collectibles mega store. On three floors, I browsed at almost every kind of merchandise: tableware, artworks, and books, as well as furniture, clothing, toys, glassware, jewelry, seasonable items, etc. This “store” contained a co-op that included items from about 80 dealers displaying their wares. If you couldn’t find something to interest you here, then you weren't looking very hard. There were so many isles that you could get lost, and the staff suggested raising your voice a bit to get help to find your way out. In addition, Haddon Heights Antique Center often had sales almost everyday. I’ve seen large antique stores in Northern NJ, but this is the first time I have seen one closer to where I live. Thus, I have said this before about other large antique stores, and I’ll say it again: I felt like I was in a decorative arts museum—except that this art was for sale. If you are in Southern NJ, don’t miss it.
