Some tips to get you started:

Some of these are straightforward to an experienced thrifter/antique hunter, but in case you haven't, here are a few tips to help:

- Because these are small businesses, they may have weird hours or only open part of the week. Each of these listings has hours listed in the details if the business has provided it to Google. When in doubt, Saturday morning is a great time to go!

- Cash is a must! Not everywhere will take credit cards, although a few do. You can also typically get 10% off bigger purchases (like furniture) if you pay with cash.

- Negotiating just depends. For smaller items, it's not really done, but for big purchases (especially if buying more than one), you can ask.

- Keep in mind that the staff/owners of these shops don't necessarily speak English! Brush up on Italian numbers before you go, and be kind and patient.

- If antique shopping is up your alley, keep your eyes out for towns' monthly antique markets! For example, Sacile's is on the 4th Sunday of each month and Aviano's is on the 1st Sunday. They're so much fun and offer the same types of items, set up in the center of town!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Available for hire

Amateur Italian, travel advisor, and adventurous eater! I’m a travel creative living in small town northern Italy, and I've been planning travel for over 15 years. I've lived on three continents and visited over 40 countries, so I'm passionate about helping travelers experience the best of a location, no matter where! I love both/and travel: I want to see the big sights AND the local hangouts, the big cities AND the small towns. I’d love to help you do it too! If you’re going to Rome for the first time, you don’t need me to tell you to see the Colosseum. But you might want me to tell you if it’s better as a guided tour or on your own, what add-on’s are worth the money, and what are the extra secret things your ticket can get you! My favorite part of travel is eating well: finding the local haunts, tasting a new wine, and trying the local dishes. Amazing food doesn't have to be expensive: sometimes the best of a place is in the street food! But if it is a splurge, I'll make sure it's worth every penny. I'd love to work with you to create the trip of your dreams!
