Anyway here are some useful shopping tips for you to make the most of your trip:

• Be on time for your ferry crossing otherwise you’ll end up paying more unnecessarily.
• Allow the petrol to be quite low in the tank so that you can fill on the continent where it is cheap.This way you can offset the cost of the ferry.  
• Make sure to check out the prices at home before you shop abroad.
• Be aware of customs limits to avoid any unnecessary questions at all –  3200 cigarettes, 3 kilos of tobacco, 110 litres of wine, 10 litres of spirits and 20 litres of fortified wine.
• Check out the guidelines at Customs and Excise website.
• Ring your credit card company so as to avoid being turned down. This could happen because they might think it’s a fraudulent transaction because of deviation from normal spending.

Enjoy guilt free shopping!
