Great for local goods, but stay away from buying foreign brands since they tend to be marked up. Keep in mind that all shops must accept credit cards, regardless of how low the purchase is.

You'll find the most glamorous shops in this beautiful city (remember: Prada, Versace, and Dolce & Gabbana were all born here). Milan being one of the "fashion capitals," anything you find here will be ahead of anything you can find back home.
