Name of Shop: Portobello Market
Portobello Market is the ultimate tourist's place to get some idea about antiques, collectibles and suck things in London. It might not be the cheapest place to buy this stuff, but it's definitely a lot of fun searching through all the little shops in the buildings and on the streets around. Go there on Saturday morning to get the most out of it (and the biggest crowd around you...:)
What To Buy: Whatever catches your attention :)
