In the Old Town in Vilnius. What I like about amber is the fact it's a Sacred stone to the Native American is some part of the U.S.A (JAV)
The Lithuanian call it "the Land of Amber". In ancient times it was worth it's weight in gold.
For both the Lithuanians as well as the Native Americans when wearing it it brings purification of mind, body, and spirit. Amber activates unconditional Love in mankind, stimulates the intellect.
You can buy beautiful necklaces and rings or pendant, or art work made out of Amber or pictures with amber embedded or glued to the picture...whatever your pleasure is, it's there.
I bought a nice movable cross with different color of ambers, it costed me 80 Litas ($20.00) Leave a Comment Theme: OtherWebsite: BalticShop.com.Amber

It's at any Banks in Lithuania.
The LITHUANIAN Commemorative coins.
The coins are struck at the Mint of Lithuania so I'm pretty so $$$$...BUT worth it. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: The Bank of Lithuania, Totoriq g. 2, VilniusPhone: (370 5) 2680316Website: www.lithuanian-mint.lt Other Contact: www.lbank.lt

Many vendors in Lithuania will sell carvings of masks. Some of them may or may not represent devils. As Lithuania was the last country in Europe to Christianize over from paganism, there is still a strong tie to nature in Lithuania. Hence, wood carvings of devils.
There is a devil museum in Kaunas, and when I get around it, I will make a Kaunas page and put that on it.
Don't pay more than 20usd for one of these things unless it's REALLY cool. Leave a Comment Theme: Local Craft

When you see these names, know it's super market and food is there :)):
main supermarket netwoorks:
Maxima - Media- Minima (same network, title indicates the size of a shop, there're also Maxima Baze, Hyper Maxima, ecc.)
Hyper Rimi - Rimi (in Vilnius)
Iki
If you bought a telephone number for a longer stay a charging card (Labas, Extra) you can buy in supermarkets, o kiosks of the press. Bus tickets are also in the kiosks.
I'd suggest to search for souvenir gifts in the folk-art shop, you'll find some cute things with a good price. The same goes for amber things. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherPhone: www.rimi.ltDirections: Photo by Vladimiras IvanovasWebsite: www.iki.lt

Multi purpose department store, with a huge aquarium in the centre housing 800 different fish including sharks! A superb centre piece for any age, it is quite a spectacular sight. Also there is a large choice of cafes/restuarants, and a bowling alley you could spend a full day there especially if the weather is not kind.
Shoes, clothes, food
I bought a fabulous pain of glove leather shoes for about Ģ11.00 Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Outskirts of Kaunus townDirections: Any mini bus with MEGA written on the front

If you want to have a good shopping in various shops or supermarkets, it's better to go to Vilnius, Kaunas or Klaipeda then. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Sometimes you can buy a book of stamps along side the sidewalks in the flee-market area of the old town.
Stamps, old postcards, books new and old.

The best places to find souvenirs, are: Vilnius, Kaunas, Klaipeda, Nida and Palanga. It's not easy to find them in the countryside, or out of summertime.
The tourists visiting Lithuania have to buy mainly:
-amber decorations or amber jewellery
-several kind of woodcrafts
-embroidered linen tablecloths
-bottles of Lithuanian liqueurs and other drinks.
By the way, the linen dresses, jackets, jumpers or bags are not expensive ones. The linen tablecloths and napkins are really very nice. Leave a Comment Theme: Local Craft

One of biggest markets in Europe, this one has almost every type of goods in production - it would take over a day to travel to every little shop probably. There is everything - clothes, TVs, CDs (including pirate ones), used cars, shoes, etc.
WARNING: there are some pickepockets in this market, thus keep your wallet in safe place.
Goods are relatively cheap here, thus it is so popular (many foreigners comes here to buy things). You can bargain also.
