If you're coming from Florence or are planning a trip to Tuscany then you might consider stopping by these outlets. It is best to arrive at Prada before it opens at 9.30. At the door you take a ticket from the slim stainless steel dispenser and then retire to the very chic bar/café next door, which has an electronic number counter to let you know when it's your turn. The choicest items are always there first thing and go quickly, later in the day there can be a long wait. Keep your ticket. Anything you think you might want to buy you can give to a sales assistant who will store it for you whilst you rampage on to the next discovery, in the end, you have a second chance to revisit everything calmly and make your final selection. Do not bother going on weekends, public holidays or during the peak sale periods (when the best old stock is sent to the stores)As with all outlets, it can be hit or miss, some times you will be lucky and other times you will not find anything worth buying.
