Venice Shopping

This past Saturday my two roommates and I had taken a day trip up to Venice. Venice is a beautiful city and I would recommend taking a trip up there if you have a chance. While I was in Venice I had bought some souvenirs for my friends at home. I had bought mask key chains from on outdoor vendor on the side of a street. I had gotten 6 key chains for 12 euro. I did bargain with them a little. However, the stores in Venice are a little pricier and there is no bargaining going on inside of them. The shops are small and offer very nice items but the prices of an item are higher than one would be in Rome.

Many of the shops located around Venice are filled with glass objects, masks, jewelry, and souvenir products. Along the Grand Canal running around Venice is lined with vendors who are selling much of the same products the small shops are selling. So if you get a chance to go to Venice and want to buy a couple items, take a look around at the vendors and the small shops to get the best price!
