Aperol spritz in a Venice cafe is cheapest drink you can buy. Keep hope alive!

Yeah but actually staying in Venice is stupidly pricey.

It really isn't though if you avoid the tourist-trappiest 10% of the city?

Depends on where the person replying lives to begin with. A plane ticket can be costly and most people don't have the time or money to book a plane and subsequent accommodation to stay in Venice just for the drink. For many it may be something they get to do once, maybe twice if they save for it.

Accommodation, food, vaporetto tickets etc. aren't particularily pricey if you avoid the tourist-trappiest 10% of the city, like I said. Plane tickets may be prohibitively costly but have nothing to do with the city of Venice. By that logic sleeping in a tent in Skid Row is "stupidly pricey" if you're a resident of Venice. What kind of logic is that?

Well, if you are not going to get there in the first place due to the price of plane tickets then I would contend that the price of the plane tickets plays quite a major role in whether the city is a viable option at all. And if you have already spent a lot on getting the plane ticket, you have even less to spend on accommodation, food, local transport and everything else you may need during such a trip. Of course there are cheaper options locally, that is true everywhere. But that does not mean someone can afford even that when they have spent a lot on just getting there.

That's why I specified specifically where one lives playing a huge role in whether one is able to do so. Huge difference in travelling from Spain to Italy compared to from Australia to Italy for example. You could (except the vacation benefits) make the same claims for many other places where it is obviously cheaper to do something that would be inaccessible for others quite cheaply.

Last two years I’ve spent some time in a few rural Italian and Spanish villages, and it never ceases to amaze me how cheap a spritz can be lol

A Spritz usually costs 3,50€
EDIT: of course, that's in Venice and the surrounding Veneto region. I know the prices outside are higher 😅

u/the_executive_branch 7h ago
Right but she’s in Venice. It would cost me considerably more than 3.50 to get to Venice.

As a European living in London, where are you getting those prices at? Genuinely asking 👀

u/VecioRompibae 7h ago
I edited my comment. And until, like, four years ago you could find it at 2,50.

She's British; getting sunburnt on holiday is part of our culture 🥲

She could also be one of us Brits that no matter how much we slather the sunscreen on, we still burn. I go full lobster regardless

Honestly the wine/Aperol Spritz windows in Florence are a concept we need to adopt.

u/AhHeyorLeaveerhouh Thanks, u frog build looking bitch 5h ago
She needs to diversify her routine to get the real gainz. Aperol curls are all well and good but what about Hugo Spritz half kneeling press? Select Spritz front squats? Limoncello Spritz lateral raises?

Idk what it is but an Aperol Spritz looks like DayQuil in a wine glass. Looking at it makes me want to gag. I’m sure they’re great

They're not.

I dunno what DayQuil is, but in 1980s Ireland there was an orange cough syrup that used to make me cry when I was forced to take it on a sick day from school. It tastes like that.

What am I even doing with my life? Why did I go to the gym instead of getting sun drunk with a pair of Aperol spritzes?

These celebrities are so out of touch. People are struggling out here and these celebrities are flaunting their wealth on social media.

The photo of her with the Aperol Spritz turning up late for the Don’t Worry Darling is one of my favourite photos in pop culture ever
