In this 757 Living segment from The Know Buddies 757, Jackie and Kashmir check out the Virginia Beach Antique Mall—one of the largest antique spaces in the area—filled with vintage finds, collectibles, and unexpected surprises around every corner.

What starts as a quick stop turns into a full experience, exploring nostalgia, pop culture items, and rows of antiques packed into a massive, maze-like space.
