London Shopping Tips by Manyana

Name of Shop: Electronics and computers

I strongly recommend you to buy electronics from Amazon UK online market. It is safer to buy online than to travel around while walking with your electronics. You may easily get stolen.
I was told once a guy was cycling with his bike, carrying his laptop inside his backpack. Someone pulled away his bag and easily grabbed it away and ran off.
Amazon offers a free super delivery if you make purchases over BP19, very practical. Delivery takes up to 5 business days.

What To Buy: You can purchase other things, DVDs, books, toys, and other electronics and personal care products.

What To Pay: i find prices are more reasonable that real stores and other online markets

Name of Shop: Oriental City

Oriental City is a big shopping mall.
It contains:
- a big food court where you can find all kinds of Asian food (Chinese, Thai, Malay, Korean...etc).
- there are many clothing shops.
- an Asian supermarket, some items are imported from the Far East, so they are pricy.

What I like about the food court, halal or kosher meals are served. You will see the sign 'Halal' at the booth that has kosher meat. Also there is a counter. So the shopkeeper will give you a number and then you have to wait for your meal to be called and collected. I like this!

What To Buy: Asian food
Asian clothes

What To Pay: prices vary depending if they are local or imported from Far East. But generally the food is good not expensive.
