This is not Don Draper's vintage store with pristine, pricey midcentury modern pieces. Instead, Flamingos is more like a one-stop garage sale — an unpredictable jumble of stuff from random eras at temptingly modest prices. More than two dozen vendors pool their wares for this monthly sale of furniture, accessories, jewelry and other trinkets, from elegant Art Deco to retro kitsch. Worth a visit, whether you're looking for a sturdy chest of drawers for $100 — or a quirky vase that you didn't know you needed. Open May 11-15 and the second weekend of each month (10 a.m.-6 p.m. Wed.-Sun). 3404 Cedar Av. S., Mpls., 612-767-4548,
