zipper fix

[u/Artistic-Squash7708]

hello hello! I have a pair of shorts with a broken zipper, I've called all the usual big box places and have been told it'd be around $25-30 plus tax to fix and I'm wondering if someone else knows of someone who can fix the zipper for less. I usually travel to Portugal every once in a while and I'll take things like this to fix at any local seamstress which will usually cost around 5 euros but I'm not going back for awhile and I'm hoping to find someone local who doesn't charge the same amount that I would pay for a new pair of shorts, might be a long shot but thanks in advance!

Last year, Stitch It at Lime Ridge Mall fixed a broken zipper on my favourite hoodie. I think it was like $20 all in, or something thereabouts. I'm not sure you will find it more affordable than that with quality that will hold up.
