Kinnie!!!

by tini58de

Next time I go to Malta, I make sure to bring some Kinnie home from there.Kinnie is the national soft drink in Malta and has this absolutely fantastic slightly bitter taste to it - oh, how I wish, we could buy it here in Germany!!!

Travellers Malta: Travelling Lagguage

by BlaKantunieri

This shop has a wide selection of travelling lagguages most probably the largest one of its kind. On buying the salesman were very nice however be aware of them. I bought a Samsonite laptop bag from this shop and just after a month it torn up. I took it back to the shop for repair and after three months they told me that it could not be repaired. Although this bag comes with a three year warantee it was never replaced. SAMSONITE WAS NEVER CONTACTED ON THIS ISSUE !!!

Local crafts, gifts, souvenirs As this is a tourist destination, prices can be expected to be a little bit more expensive.

Open-air Markets, Valletta

by hopang

Open-air markets are held at Merchants Street in the city of Valletta daily. However Valletta flea market is held only on Sundays. There are more things on sale at Sunday flea market. Opening hours are usually between 9.00 a.m. and 2.00 p.m. Wide range of consumer goods are on sale at the open-air markets in Valletta such as clothings and textiles, toys, souvenirs from Malta, CDs and DVDs, watches, stationery, kitchen utensils and even food and drinks. Souvenirs from Malta are highly recommended such as t-shirts, key-chains, refrigerator's magnets and caps. Prices are lower than those in the shopping centres.

Shoe mark: Isn't this how you normaly buy shoes?

by Dick33

The sale is a bit special buy 1 get 1 free it is the way I thought you bought shoes anyway it doesn't say buy 1 pair get one free just buy 1 shoe get one free. Very odd only in Malta Shoes but not just 1 hard luck if you only have one leg

Sunday shopping

by ROCKARIA

It depends what kind of shops that you want to visit.Most large stationaries/book shops are open till 12.00pm selling also newspapers ets.There is a large flee market just near the Valletta bus terminus selling practically everything that comes to mind,There is also Baystreet complex in St Julians/Paceville although a bit upclass one can also find many different shops open.As for souveniers some shops in Valletta water front or bugibba would also be open for business.enjoy

C. Camilleri and Sons Ltd.: Qaghaq tal ghasel or honey ring.

by Maurizioago

This is a traditional Christmas cake, but it is sold even in the summer. Its filling is made with honey, semoline and other things.I bought some of these cakes in Valletta; at "Camilleri and Sons". It is a nice confectionery shop in Merchants Street.

Souvenirs

by micajo

You will find lots of shops where you can buy souvenirs but if you go to Mdina you will see lots of local crafts that are nice and not that expensive. There you will find lots of pottery items and also glass ornaments which are made locally. They aren't the usual souvenirs but for the second time pay attention since there are fakes and they will ask for high prices ... so be careful. Don't pay too much for a simple souvenir of Malta .... or bargain with them or else go to other shops ... there are plenty of them

Clothes

by micajo

You can buy nice clothes from here.... there are shops like Dorothy Perkins, Next, Marks & Spencer, Wallis, BHS etcAlso there is a market in Valletta (the capital city) where you can find bargains so take a look for sure There aren't that expensive but think twice before buying something so as to get it at a reasonable price, cos certain shops tend to be more expensive since they are located in tourist places such as Sliema
