Before I left for Madrid I looked around the local Zara store for a few new clothes for my break. The prices here in England are quite high, so I decided to wait until I arrived in Madrid. The exact same items were at least a third cheaper, needless to say I went on a shopping spree and saved myself a LOT of money. I also "had" to buy a couple of pairs of mules, leather, at bargain prices in a shop called Nuevos Guerrilleros on the Plaza Puerta del Sol, these were so comfortable I didn't want to take them off. So for all you ladies out there take a tip and buy in Spain rather than at home.
