SPR Kontti Tampere

Flea market in Lielahti

""SPR Kontti" is one of my favorite places to shop in Tampere! This second-hand shop run by the Finnish red cross just has anything you can imagine..."

One of my favourite shopping places are flea markets and second-hand shops. One of them is SPR Kontti in Lielahti run by the Finnish Red Cross.

In Kontti you can find basically anything: clothes, shoes, sports equipment, toys, books, gift items, paintings, household appliances, furniture and tableware... I have found for example beautiful tableware from Kontti, but also there are even brand new clothes and shoes sometimes.

I also do my part for recycling, as I take old clothes and other stuff back to Kontti. This is at least how I want to be part of making the world a better place to live and not to consume all the time new things. Recycle!

A bus ride from the city center of Tampere takes only about 10-15 minutes to Lielahti. And there are two other flea markets in Lielahti area, so why not visit them all.
