The meaning of a sentence

Hello,

Please help me understand this sentence correctly ("Oh wow i must of been too early.")

I've just found it (in a dialogue) on a Facebook page:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

A: Free lunch at the market! In the US on Saturday or Sunday fish market or have some food try to advertise for the product! Go for a walk around the market - try everything a piece is...

B: Oh wow i must of been too early

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thank you!
