Nothing better to do?

One of the things we like about living in Spain is that Saturday afternoons, Sundays and holidays the shops are shut. There are times when it can be frustrating but generally, if you plan ahead it isn’t a problem. Yesterday was a public holiday in this region so the local shops would have been shut.

However, in Guardamar del Segura they had a different idea and opened an “Outlet Fair”. Don’t worry if you missed it though because it will be open again today from 10am until 2pm and then from 6:30pm until 9pm.

On sale is everything from home appliances to fashion and furniture; all at reduced prices to clear last seasons stocks.

By the looks of this photograph from Información, the idea was quite popular. On a day which looked unpromising weather-wise, I suppose it was something to do rather than sit about the house. If you plan to go, just keep your wallet in your pocket unless there is something you desperately want to buy!
