Chris here, in San Vicente
A huge slice of life here in the Village is the Tianges. It's a take on the Swap Meet, but a bit more important to Mexican life here. San Vicente only has a few little clothing and accessory shops with a limited selection and high prices. The Tianges is a roving 'second-hand shop PLUS' that puts up in the town square each Thurs and Sat. There are vendors with used clothing, household supplies, tools, appliances, etc... AND there are some new products, vegetable vendors, car parts... nothing has a price listed, so it's old-fashioned 'barter' system...
How would we make it without our beloved Tianges...??? I personally LOVE shopping at Thrift stores in the USA, so I'm diggin the Tianges...
