Souvenir Shopping
Quite hard to shop for souvenirs in Abu Dhabi - not much variety compared to other places. But you can get some nice souvenirs - T-shirts, coffee pot, genie bottle, carpets etc. from Hamdan Center along Sheikh Hamdan Road. You can also get some cheap memorabilia like bottles of sand collected from different emirates and other replicas from a shop called Gift Tower (behind Hamdan Center). There is also another shop called Wonder Gift located at the corner of Hamdan St & Salam St. So happy souvenir-shopping!

T-shirts, camel statues, replica of Burj al-Arab, postcards, genie lamp, sand from different emirates (different colors) etc.

Few dirhams to couple of tens of dirhams... depending on what you want to buy.

    Hamdan Centre: Sports wear and Antiques
    This complex has a lot of sports stores selling fake stuff that looks its the real thing :)

    You can find the most common chain stores here, as well as few locals ones. There is a food court and kids amusement area.

    You can buy Arabic perfumes and incense inside the mall.

    Average UAE mall prices. More expensive than UK for clothing but sales are on regularly.

    Souq
    As I learned, every town in Arabic world has its own Souq or local market.

    The one in Abu Dhabi is interesting to see but unless you want to save money and buy "Adibos" running shoes - I wouldn't recommend shopping there.

    Everything is very cheap though and you can buy almost anything.
