Hi guys.

 

Need some quick advice. Got a wedding anniversary coming up.

 

Thinking of buying my wife something nice. Maybe a Bottega bag or something.

 

Is it significantly cheaper at Changi airport ? Was thinking I could get it at dfs since I got a trip to hongkong later this month.

 

If not then I just get from ion later

If you PPS member then got further discount I suppose.

 

My wife always shopped at Changi Airport when on business trips. Depends on the item you buying...not all worth it.

You save basically GST only. If you transit Heathrow, it is significantly cheaper.

Prices are usually less 7%.

 

HK prices are thought to be more competitive but will you have the time to hunt for it whilst in HK?

 

Also take note that you get 7% off only when departing and not on your return flight.

Chanel isn't too bad.

 

If you're heading into London, and your schedule allows it, make a trip to Bicester Village where you'll get bang for your buck. Get there around 9am and you'll avoid the locust plague which swarms in at 10 am. If your spouse/partner is with you, your wallet will become really light.
