Shopping Tip of the Day: Visiting Paris Any Time Soon? It's Shopping Season!

This is a reminder that the official 2010 Summer Sales (Soldes d'été) will start in Paris on Wednesday June 30th 2010 and will last for 5 weeks until August 3rd, 2010. In other regions of France, they may start at later dates.

I've already spotted pre-announcements of offers of up to 80% discount (just make sure you know the regular prices beforehand to see if the big discounts are as generous as advertised and don't forget to do comparison shopping whenever possible.)
