Puglia
Shopping -
Shopping in
Puglia Italy.
Shopping
on holiday is
usually fun
and in Puglia
it is no
different. The
problem I have
always found
is to actually
find the shops
in the first
place. There
never seems to
be a "high
road" like
people are
used to in the
UK, the shops
appear to be
scattered all
over the
place, apart
from souvenir
shops centred
around popular
tourist spots.
Opening Times
- As a general
rule shops in
Puglia open
from about
9.30am, close
for siesta
between
1pm-5pm,
during the
week, Saturday
mornings and
closed on
Sunday.
I say "about"
as many
smaller shops
do not even
stick to their
opening hours.
There are a
few, newer
shopping
malls, centred
on a big
supermarket,
in and around
the bigger
towns that are
open all
day.
Good buys in
Puglia are
women's
clothes,
trainers,
shoes,
handbags, food
(except
British
brands)
generally
about one
third cheaper
than in the
UK, although
as the pound
is up and down
at the moment,
you should
double check
before buying.
Do not forget
to try the
Puglia
Markets
and
Puglia Shops
for a complete
list.
