A retail store—they keep marking everything down!
The flea market.
This joke is a play on words involving the term “flea market,” which is a type of bazaar where inexpensive or secondhand goods are sold. The humor arises from the double meaning of “flea.” In the context of the market, “flea” refers to the name of the market itself, suggesting a place with many different items for sale. However, “flea” also refers to the small parasitic insects that infest the fur of animals, particularly dogs. The punchline suggests that taking a dog to a “flea market” could be interpreted literally as taking them to a place where they could acquire more fleas, which is obviously undesirable.
