Goaliewb, I collect soda bottles exclusively. 40 plus years now. I will have to look up the places in the St Catharines and Niagara area. Local antique markets that I like to walk through are.
Southworks in Cambridge - found a few nice bottles there
St Jacobs Antique Warehouse in North end of Waterloo near the St Jacobs Farmers Market - picked a couple dozen bottles there over the years.
Stratford Antique Warehouse in Stratford - a couple bottle collectors sell there but they price pretty high.
Aberfoyle has an outdoor market in the summer too.
I also shop Kijiji and Facebook Marketplace. Most of my really good finds in St Catharines have been through Kijiji. No idea why I find this town to be a honey hole. I picked up a full case of Art Deco embossed Evangeline bottles in the wooden case. A couple nice McGirr and a few soda water embosed bottles. My best pick up was from a prof from Brock University who was selling his dad's stuff. I grabbed a few boxes of really nice bottles with cardboard carriers. I find these pick ups nice too.
This week end heading to St Catharines to see my son at school and will hopefuly hit a store or two while there.
I look up the store names and post once back.
