In travels for business or pleasure, I always try to make time to hit the local vintage clothing and antique stores. I usually don't travel just to shop (except to Chicago), but if I'm debating going on a trip and know there's a hot vintage spot in the area, that always tips the scales!
An article in the online Milwaukee, Wisconsin newspaper features some of the best vintage clothing stores in Milwaukee. My favorite store on the list is Dragonfly Vintage Goods. They have an eclectic blend of vintage clothing and the shop is located in the Brady Street district, renowned for its people watching.

Ludlow, Kentucky (Kenton Hills) Estate Sale Fri-Sat 9-5 August 3rd. - 4th.
Estate sales in Northern Kentucky and greater Cincinnati are a terrific way to find vintage clothing, antiques and collectibles for a reasonable price. On one hand, it's best to arrive early on the first day, especially if you have a specific item in mind to buy. On the other hand, arriving at the end of the day on the last day of an estate sale can net you some fabulous, inexpensive finds.
Estate sales are held for a number of different reasons. Sometimes sales are held when a family member has passed away, to help empty the home of items not wanted by others in the family. But in recent years, more and more people hold estate sales when they are moving, downsizing, or just need some extra cash. People contract with estate sale companies to handle all of the details, and the company typically gets a percentage of the total sales as payment. The estate sale is usually held in a home, and everything in the house is for sale unless marked otherwise.
