No time for shopping.But in Rome and Venice, Prada was not that much cheaper than it is here. I bought a Prada handbag in Venice and after you convert the euros into dollars, I winded up paying about $700. Although I did get $40 back in customs at the airport on the way home for that tax free shopping crap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
