 Christmas lights on Main Street by bugalugs Besides being cigarettes which are a lot cheaper here (about £9 per 200 carton as opposed to about £45 a 200 carton in the UK), as are spirits, there are also lots of electrical shops, camera/photographic shops, perfume shops and also shops selling crystal and porcelain. All are duty free and as there are quite a few of these shops they must be doing well or else there wouldnt be as many. There is also a Marks and Spencer a Safewy store which is down near the harbour. As we were there in late November all the fairy lights were on ready for Christmas. Not all shops are open on a Sunday. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 'A pleasant way to shop' by sugarpuff For shopping purposes, the recently pedestrianised and beautiful Main Street is the place to visit.There you will find a variety of shops sellings all sorts of goods, VAT free!!!! You will find electrical/audio-visual equipment, tobacco products, wines and spirits, jewellery, watches , perfumes, porcelain figures , sunglasses, books ,confectioneries, souvenirs, clothes, all at very competitive prices.
For a well-known brand of Vodka for example, you need only pay around four pounds. For a packet of 200 cigarettes, be prepared to pay around eight pounds. Perfume prices start at around eight pounds and rise from there. Audio-visual equipment is well priced, but the shops are owned by two families so you wont be able to bargain a great deal from shop to shop as the prices are all generally the same. But you do get discount for paying with cash. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: Main Street, from Casemates Square up to the other end near the Cable Car entrance.

Gibraltar is a British Colony. As such it qualifies for tax-free status, which means any shopping there is duty-free. Therefore ectronic type goods can be significantly cheaper than elsewhere in Europe. As usual though, buyer beware. Check your local prices first, and make sure you are buying the same item with the same extras coming with it!
Electrical Goods such as cameras, mp3 players, memory cards et al are all worth investigating! Leave a Comment Theme: Computers and Electronics

 Gibraltar High Street - Shoppers Paradise by Beach_dog As you walk into Gibraltar's main street you will immediately notice the numerous shops selling tax free goods, it seems that Gibraltar town center just thrives on its retail outlets. Its not surprising when you see the prices, and with so many daytrippers coming across the border its tax free status is well used by the visitors. Just be careful what you buy, as searches are not infrequent at the Spanish border, exceeding your allowances can result in having to pay tax or confiscation of the goods. .

The shop is right at the left side as you enter the Casemates Square. It is close to its own factory and produces varoius unique designs of handmade glasswares and crystals. You can see glass being made, blown by famous blowers in town. Take home with you a piece of Gibraltar Crystal. Don't miss the display centre. You'll also find a wide display of glass on offer to cater for everyone's taste and budget.

Just wanted to remind folks about duty free goods if you are flying directly from the UK to Gibraltar.
Its important that visitors from the UK are aware that Gibraltar is not classified as part of the EU and therefore, international allowances apply for trips directly to/from Gibraltar, e.g. 200 ciggies, 2 bottles wine, 1 bottle spirits, etc. This applies when returning from Gibraltar directly to the UK.

by sourbugger Gibraltar is in a rather peculiar posistion in that it is a member of the EU (as it is part of the UK), but is not a member of the customs union. Thus the duty-free allowances apply which are listed below : • 200 Cigarettes or 100 Cigarillos, or 50 Cigars, or 250gm Tobacco • 2 litres Still Table Wine and 1 litre Spirits, strong liqueurs over 22% vol. or 2 litres Fortified or sparkling wine, other liqueurs. • 60cc/ml 250cc/ml Perfume Eau de Toilette. • £145 Gifts souvenirs and all other goods inc beer.

I was trying to buy 2 cameras fortunately I had priced things at home first. I could buy far cheaper at Dixons, Jessops, Argos you name it anywhere but Main St. I'm a good haggler, well quite good, and I couldn't get anyone to come down to anywhere near the price I could buy at home. Make sure you know your prices ! Check the hotel internet if you haven't got that item priced up ! They rely on suckers - don't be one. I've been to Gib a number of times and this aspect of it has changed for the worse.
NOTHING
