* Internet-cafés in Venice are ridiculously expensive. In [[Mestre]] within 10-minute walk from railway station you'll find places entitled "Internet Point" run by Chinese or Bangladeshi guys, where Internet is around €1.50 for 30 minutes. You'll need an ID if you want to use the Internet (by Italian law).
* If you know exactly when you are going to arrive in Venice, buy tickets in advance on [http://www.veniceconnected.com Venice Connected].
* You can go inside Basilica San Marco for free - large bags and rucksacks are not allowed. [[User:Lnx|Lnx]], however, managed to sneak in with a small rucksack, SLR camera bag and a tripod case.
* The Snack Bar in the square by the university (Campo Santa Margherita) is not too overpriced - sitting charge is €1.50, and the portions are decent. Also, take advantage of free breadsticks (i.e. included in that €1.50)
* If you want to experience a Gondola ride and don't want to spend €80/hour, you can cross the Grand Canal in a Gondola for €0.50 (yes, 50 eurocents). The ''Traghetto'' runs between the west side (market) and the east side (just north of Rialto bridge).
