    Getting TO/AROUND: We flew in from London (Luton) on EasyJet.

    Cheap!!!

    The fare was 2.99 GBP each!

    Total cost with fees about $50.00 (US)

    You have to book early to get the cheap fare though!

     They tell you they are not allowed to buy another bag and ask you to do it. If you agree they give you counterfeit money to pay with - you get caught, they walk away! Its a way of circulating the counterfeit money.

     it is popular for japanese woman to fly to paris to buy designer clothing a few times a year, sometimes buying 10-15 bags/shoes at once, and thus store owners have a limit per customer.. it's possible that those woman reached their limit?
