Bringing Paris Home ~ Tip #4

Bringing Paris Home ~ Tip Number 4
     FINDING THE MARKETS

My Two Antique/ Flea Market Bibles I cannot live without!

Aladin & Antiquites Brocante are published every 6 weeks and list by district (Paris is #75) all the antique markets and flea markets including the neighborhood vide-grenier (attic sale) for the entire country!
Buy these 2 mags as soon as you arrive! Plot out your plan of attack. For instance: if looking for a market in Paris, It will tell you the Time, Street and even the closest Metro Stop near the market.  There is also a telephone number you can call to make sure the market hasn't been cancelled before you make an across the city trek.

Once back home, don't throw away the magazines.....hunt through them for websites offered by organizations who put on some of these shows for your next trips schedule!

more next week........
