Cunversatzione 2 beach chairs & umbrella

Hello fellow travellers. My husband and I are going to be traveling through Sardinia, and to save on beach clubs, we're thinking about either purchasing previous travellers' beach chairs & umbrella OR buying them ourselves and selling them at the end of our trip.

Would love to get in touch if...
1. You have 2 beach chairs & umbrella that we can buy for a total of €50 (as I can get brand new on Amazon for €100) on Aug 29 in Alghero; OR,
2. If you're interested in buying 2 beach chairs & umbrella for €50 (as I can get brand new on Amazon for €100) on Sep 2 or 3rd in Cagliari.

Most towns have these Chinese stored that sell beach chairs, towels, umbrella's for low prices.

That's really helpful tip. Are they cheaper than Amazon prices above?

I saw a beach chair with metal frame and a head pillow for 38 euro at one of the stores, I don't know prices for an umbrella.

Do you know if there’s one of these stores in or near Cannigione?

There is at least one that i could find: https://maps.app.goo.gl/1AGyFd5yEKYQzr8Q8

Maybe I should start renting out beach chairs and umbrella's to other tourists, the prices at the beach are often quiet high and buying things for a a few days and then leaving them at the trashcan is pretty wasteful.

we stayed at a rental where the people before us left their beach mats and umbrella which we in turn left for the next people. maybe you can pay it forward and do a nice gesture if you buy and can’t sell at the end of your trip

That’s a great idea. We’ll be at a hotel so not sure if they’ll take it but worth exploring

In greece our hotel gave us some stuff like this. Maybe this happens to you, too, in sardinia. :)

I bought umbrella on the beach from some seller for 20euro. The rent was like 8eur/day. I left it on my apartment for next guest for free :)
