I've reckoned that for years now.
If you can't get something at a better price thanin duty free with a bit of shopping around you aren't trying.
Except maybe grog.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

I'm even questioning that these days. Marginal for spirits.

You're probably right especially given the ridiculous limits they place on you.

I had a recent stop over in Singapore. Duty Free spirits were like 40% cheaper there than duty free in Australia.Event through Europe duty free grog seemed cheaper than our rip off prices. USA same deal.

3-)

Last time I did duty free I also hit the cosmetics section and doused myself in as much expensive cologne and man body products that I could manage. Great for the next long haul red eye flight.
