THE CHOICE IS STAGERING SO ITS YOUR OWN TASTE THAT YOU PLEASE,I CAN SAY THIS YOU WONT BE DISAPOINTED. A FAIR PRICE FOR QUALITY PENNYS TO A COUPLE OF POUNDS.
Carphone Warehouse is a chain of stores that offer cellphones in most high streets. Usually you can buy the cheapest pay-as-you-go for around £10 + £10 load. Other phones are on offer that are tied up to different networks but if you are here just for a few weeks as a tourist the cheap one will suffice.
THIS A LARGE OPEN WAREHOUSE TYPE OF SHOPPING,IT HAS MANY DIFFERENT DEPTS IN THE BUILDING WITH A VERY GOOD CHOICE OF GOODS CHINA IS VERY GOOD. PRICES ARE VARIED FOR A FEW POUNDS TO HUNDEREDS OF POUNDS ITS ALL DOWN TO WHAT YOU BUY.
I will vote for Hyde Park by the Serpentine lake, Italian gardens. When I go there with the family ,we buy at TESCO and then take it wherever for picnics there.http://www.tesco.com/storeLocator/the store is in kensington,which for us is good because I go in by car and they have parking garage too.However you can take the tube from there by Earls Court to Knightbridgemind you ,there is a lot of small food groceries stores along Earls Court and Kensington road.Hope it helps food items for a picnic or eat out on your own with full service store best prices
it is crammed into 3 floors of games, cd,dvd, video games, accessories all the latest looks are here.IN a nice street near Leicester Square, great for the kids and young at heart you name it in modern gadgery good prices comparing the unique items and London
there are many small supermarkets , but my favorite is Tescohttp://www.tesco.com/storeLocator/hope it helps groceries, gadgets, its a big supermarket, I use it for foods =grocery shopping better than small shops, similar to big supermarkets chains
well since the UK gang has not show up yet, I try to answer.Camden Market is very nice but do not know if best or biggest. Sunday is always nice to see a market or Saturday mornings. dont know about antique books,DVD, antiques ,the only thing I bought there was a small persian carpet.yes you are right on the tube.You can take a nice boat cruise on the canal too,nice.http://www.camdenmarkets.org/My favorite because try it in Paris, is Belushi's for fish and chip and ambiancehttp://www.belushis.com/bars/london/camdenHOpe it helps your planning many things, went just for the cultural trip to a market in London, got me a small persian carpet flea market and not so flea market stuffs
oh lord, yes difficult question, both are great for shopping, we do. I live in France, and my boys iphone have the British flag as cover, so go figure it!!!For prices maybe Paris is a bit better,and selection been the fashion capital of the world, but again, it depends on your currency the USD is a bit down lately.Both are big cities and shopping areas all over; so difficult without knowing your interests in shopping. Factory outlets dont know any in London, and Paris has them outside the city by Disneyland, and my favorite quais des marques at Franconville dept 95, can do by train and bus but long best by car, about 30 min outside the city. A great shopping center is Italie 2 and Bercy 2 in Parishttp://www.ccbercy2.com/http://www.italie2.com/Hope it helps your planning many things good values in outlet stores
We all know "The Body Shop" and most of us have at least one in a major city in our countries. I know that we have it here, but it's just so expensive! I know it's like that in most places. So, while you're in London, stock up! You will find from everything necessary in your daily life to some luxurious items. It's a haven for hair & skin care products and everything smells wonderful! Accesories, fragrances for you and for home, make up, haircare, suncare and skincare products as well as products for your well being. They have a wide ange of products for men too, especially for those with sensitive skin. Ty the after shave products, trust me! If it's a sale time, you can save a lot! Expect to pay about 15 GBP for a body butter, however, if you buy those boxes with body lotion, shower gel and whatever, you will save much more.
From Sourbugger's Basildon page :'fell off the back of a van' mate,...'fire damaged stock' mate. Many people in Essex originally come from the East End of London. They may have been seeking a better life in the green fields of Essex, but the Market trader philosophy came with them.Places like Pitsea Market are where you can really participate in the 'lifeforce' of local people. The market operates with about 200 stalls, 4 days a week in the centre of Pitsea's shopping area. Full details are available from the listed website. Even the operators have few pretensions and use a mock-up to Del and Rodney's Robin Reliant three-wheeler (from the classic British Comedy 'Only fools and Horses') with 'Pitsea Market' on the side to help publicise the place.You won't find any tourists here, and thus no stalls aimed at tourists, but if you anything from DVD's to Cauliflowers, then this is your...
