I know you asked for flea markets in Columbus but if you want to stop on the way, you could drive through Amherst, OH (Located 1/2 mile west of Rt. 58 on Rt. 113), and go to Jamie's Flea Market (open Wed. and Sat).
I used to live a couple miles away and my husband would regularly disappear there with his eyes glazed over...lol.

Or on Rt 75 (south of Toledo and just north of Findlay OH) there's a nice one.
Unfortunately I don't know of any in Columbus itself at the moment.

If he likes such things, the Columbus Zoo is where that Jack Hanna (that's on tv) is from.

I don't remember exactly where it is, it's been so long, but in the middle of the city is a free garden by the deaf school that has life size topiaries of Georges Seurat’s painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Isle of La Grand Jatte.

If you're interested in art or gardening it's well worth it

Wave as you drive by Toledo and have fun!

(your post reminds me that when we were redoing our bathrooms all we could find around here were those low water toilets. One thing we do not need to do is conserve water, so we'd drive up to Windsor at the Home Depot up there and get a regular toilet. The salesman told us they sell a lot of them to Americans)
