Shopping in Shinjuku malls can really be expensive, so head for the smaller shops in the backalleys . Or better still, shop @ Shibuya or Harajuku instead, items are cheaper downtown. Still, the malls are worth taking a look- the Japanese retail industry are the REAL trend-setters in this region.
What to buy: While you're at it, head for the food courts at the basements, I must say that the cakes and other confectionary items @ the foodcourts there are really yummy....

There's no real need to go to Ahkihabara to look for electronic goods. There's a mini-akhihabara of sorts in shinjuku itself . Just take the west exit from the station and you'll find lots of little shops selling the latest gizmos at reasonable prices.
