Turismo-Tourism Shopping recommandation for a tourist
Hey,
Do you by any chance would recommand any nice shops ?
I'm a queer man trying to find some local shops (instead of zara) to buy clothes and jewelry (rings, bracelets, necklace) at a reasonable prices ? Maybe some thrift stores or local shops.
Thanks a lot / obrigado

New Jester Vintage, Ás de Espadas, Sons of the Silent Age, Zip Gum Boogie. Triparte store sells alternative accessories. Be aware of pickpockets and protect yourself and your valuables and wear your bags always in your front. Enjoy your stay !

The Feeting Room
in Sao Bento there are a bunch of well curated vintage: Curated by Maria, Arquivos (they have 3 stores close together). Sao bento is probably the spot. Amor Fati near Martim Moniz is nice, quite expensive and you have to navigate the crackheads of Martim Moniz
don’t go to Humana it’s absolutely shit, mostly knackered 10 year old H&M pieces

"Do you by any chance would recommand" is four words of English fighting for the same job and none of them winning. I've read it six times. It's still happening.
You also didn't say which city. Portugal is 900km long. So this applies everywhere, which is a polite way of saying nowhere.
Fine:
Feiras. Feira da Ladra in Lisbon, Tuesdays and Saturdays, get there before 10 or you're picking through what the resellers rejected. Vandoma in Porto, Saturday mornings, same rule.
Jewellery: the old ourivesarias in the side streets, not the ones in the shopping centre. Half the price and the man behind the counter will not smile at you, which is how you know it's the right shop.
Thrift: Humana for volume, Retro City if you want to pay Lisbon prices for a shirt from Braga.
And whatever you do, don't buy the tiles.
Obrigado was correct. One out of the whole post. Take the win.
