braderie

Every year in end of may there is one crazy Jumbo sale in Liege called Braderie. Braderie is originally from French words which mean cut price in English. During these days all the shops in Liege city centre must been participated in this event for three days and all the items normally will be sold up to 80 percent reduction from the original prices.
Personally I can say that this is the first time ever in my life I saw and experienced this type of jumbo sale. You want to know why? Yes, the answer is during these days all the shopkeepers will set up tent outside their shops. You can find all the branded items such as Calvin Klein, Mango a.k.a MNG, United color of Benetton, Esprit, Tommy Hilfiger and plenty more easily along the streets like flea market. Apart from that, there are bandmaster and bandsmen, cartoon characters and clowns are walking around the city centre to give sweets for people. Whereas, you as a shopper, it only just the matters of you’re financially permitted or not to shopping spree until you drop. Me, myself I managed to buy a jacket from Benetton for the price of 10 euro, MNG socks, Laptop, Jeans from NAFNAF and plenty more, all with the cheap and cut prices. Although I was crazy to spending around but my friend Zek was much crazier than me on that day. It seemed like she wanted to buy all the items together with the shop itself.
By the way, My friend told me that at the end of this month until end of July there is another Big Jumbo sale compare to Braderie called Soldes. The sale sounds promising and I can’t imagine the state I am and will during soldes. I am really up for it, and in fact I started saving some money for that days. Well….we will see ….
