Well, a good start is at Jeremiah&#8217;s Antique Shoppes in Putnam, Conn. With more than 40 dealers within the store, I found many items at under $10, including books, baseball cards, doll dresses (admittedly, of no interest to me), various memorabilia and dishes. You will find some mighty expensive items here, too, but it&#8217;s nice to know that no second mortgage is required for some of the merchandise.<\/p>\n<p>Putnam, by the way, is a major antiques shopping center in New England with more than 50,000 square ft. of shopping across several different shops. The downtown is a charming relic with the antique stores serving as the anchors. I&#8217;ve found that most antique stores in Putnam have good deals, but definitely Jeremiah&#8217;s sticks out in my mind as having the highest number of cheap deals.<\/p>\n<p><em>Jeremiah\u2019s Antique Shoppes<br \/>\n26 Front St.<br \/>\nPutnam, Conn.<br \/>\nTel. 860-963-2671<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong> <strong>Related article:<\/strong><\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n<em><strong> <\/strong><\/em><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.visitingnewengland.com\/putnam-ct.html\">Putnam, Conn. : where antique shopping never grows old<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some of those antique stores with the outrageous prices will make you turn old in a hurry.
