Thrifting tips for Port Louis

Regulars learn these fast; visitors to Port Louis can skip the learning curve:

• Cash still talks at Charity Centre. Some small shops prefer cash and a few will deal a little on big items if you're paying cash. Worth having some on you.
• Try everything on. Sizing across decades is chaos. The fitting room — or a brave moment by the mirror — saves you from the almost-right jacket.
• Measure the car, not just the room. That bookshelf fits the wall but not the hatchback. Know your cargo space before you fall in love.
• Keep a running want-list. Write down what you're hunting for. Aimless browsing is fun, but a list turns luck into strategy.
