In the current context of economic crisis and high inflation, it is becoming increasingly difficult, especially for a family, to maintain habitual consumption without ending up in debt. Recently the clothing and footwear item again showed very significant increases, which according to the price index calculated by the Indec, in April was 10.8%.
In this sense, the premises of Avellaneda Avenue in the neighborhood of Flores are the most popular when it comes to buying cheap clothes. It is an interesting alternative to get good quality garments but at a much lower price than what is seen in the windows of the local shopping malls.
However, because the concentration of people is huge, especially on Saturdays, many of the tips that influencers usually share on social networks serve as a guide to organize with time and have a clear map of the place to take advantage of the price difference and make the adventure as less overwhelming as possible.

Avellaneda Avenue: where are the best prices?
Whether to buy in quantity and make gifts, or look for clothes, shoes, accessories or toys for the family, both Avellaneda and the surrounding streets, offer options for all tastes. However, there are a lot of places and you have to know how to look, especially if it is the first time you leave.
The largest concentration of business begins at Avellaneda and Nazca avenues and reaches approximately as far as Joaquín V. Gonzalez. However, there are also places from Morón Street to Bacacay and from Condarco to Mercedes, although more spaced.
While the whole area is characterized by its low prices, there are differences and better offers in the streets that cut to the famous main avenue.
Helguera, Cuenca and Campana, stand out for having the best clothes in terms of quality and price. On the other hand, in Nazca and Avellaneda, which is where most people usually travel, there are the most expensive.

Where do you recommend starting the tour?
The ideal is to start at the intersection of Avellaneda and Nazca avenues, and continue through Aranguren, which is a quieter street to walk, full of businesses with cheaper prices and where there are not so many people.
As for sportswear, the largest number of stores are located on Nazca Avenue, between Avellaneda and Rivadavia.
Finally, a not minor detail is that on the side of Juan B. Justo, most of the premises sell more women's clothing, and on the side of Rivadavia, there is more men's clothing.
What are the best days and times to retail shopping?
The best time to go shopping on Avellaneda Avenue and its nearby streets is always early in the morning.
The ideal is to arrive from 8 and finish at noon, although some places are open until 16 or 18 during the week and until 12 or 14, on Saturdays.
The advice of the experts is to go shopping on Saturdays because it is the day that most stores sell at retail. It can also be a good idea to go on weekdays (which although many sell wholesale, some families or groups of friends can serve them) since there are usually fewer people and it will not be necessary to queue in the premises.
