Fa Yuen Street...

Fa Yuen Street 花園街 Not nearly as famous as the nearby Temple Street or Lady Street, Fa Yuen St offers a mix of food, fruits, clothes, bags, stationery, towels, etc. You won't find much electronic gadgets here however. Things that are here though I find to be even cheaper than on Lady Street - less touristy, so the prices are not as inflated.
Fa Yuen St a few blocks east of Prince Edward MTR Station. On your tourist maps you should be able to easily locate Temple Street and Lady Street in the Mong Kok district. It is just a couple of blocks north and east of the northern end of Lady Street.

In fact, they are so close together that I have done the Temple St-Lady St-Fa Yuen St shop-a-thon quite a few times, but be sure to give yourself lots of time, because not only will you be busy shopping, just moving around can be a problem with the masses of people. This area (Yau Ma Tei-Mong Kok) is about as constantly busy and crowded as HK gets. Sure it gets worse in certain parts at certain times, but this area is an endless sea of humanity from morning to late night, day after day.
