Thrift shopping is one of the cheapest things you can do in Switzerland. Zurich is expensive, so…read morethis is what I like to do when I'm on a layover in the city. Zürcher Brockenhaus is one of my favorite places to pass the time after grocery shopping (another way to save money). This place is massive, with three floors of curated objects, clothing, and furnishings, and the staff is always nice. I wish I could bring the big pieces home! I always find something cool here.

We were on the hunt for a wardrobe as flats don't seem to have a lot of closets, if any at all, and found a sizable amount on the ground floor of Brockenhaus. I'd say the prices ranged anywhere from 300 to 1000 CHF, depending on quality and such. While we didn't purchase anything given that we don't yet have a flat, we 'filed' away what we would like when we do have a place to put it in, so, Brockenhaus, we'll see you again!

Well, I challenge those with a low tolerance for 'ick' to find anything wrong with this particular Caritas shop. It's tidy, funky, inviting, and has an attractive, if, however, rather narrow selection of items for adults. I was impressed with the children's selection. Parents would do well to shop here! For those keen on donating articles of clothing, accessories and shoes, there is a large, red Caritas drop-off 'box' around the back of the shop at your disposal. Also fun: the window displays are ever-changing and well-arranged.

Not everything was my taste, but when it was, I loved it so much that nearly squeeled in delight. Would have bought even more if everything came in my size. Great shop!

The Bürkliplatz flea market is a fun visit even if you aren't looking for anything in particular…read more It's a good place to find little trinkets if you're up for the hunt. We stopped by at around 9am on a Saturday, the market was fairly crowded with stalls selling antiques, cameras, prints, clothes, accessories etc. Even though it's a flea market things are still a little on the pricier side. We came back around 2pm and found that most of the prices in the shops had been dropped by half. The sellers are looking to make a sale before the market closes so I would recommend trying your luck a little before closing time. At the end of it all we found an antique collectible toy car, an old print, a small decorative vase and an antique mug all for 27 CHF.
