The many wonderful barrios and tourist attractions described on this website are surrounded by
elegant shopping, with lots of local produce and great ‘one-offs’ from
Buenos Aires’ designers. ‘Shopperholics’ will enjoy the wealth of goods on sale, as well as the suave and stylish porteños; world-class leather goods and woollen clothing are great buys, they are especially cheap if you are good at barter ask for a calculator and ‘bid the
tango Buenos Aires.’ Much face pulling, huffing, and puffing is required to get your prize at the right price. Porteños love to barter and you will not hurt their feelings - go in for the kill, those who live-to-shop must not miss
Palermo Soho.
