I'm pretty sure I'm posting in the incorrect area, but I really couldn't find what I needed in the shopping thread.
We are going on a cruise which will end in England. No shopping opportunities along the way, however. We are leaving from San Juan and hitting the Azures, Gijon and Vigo in Spain, and La Rochelle and Cherbourg in France. I know that there are some really great shops at Heathrow, but I'm not sure about the setups of the store.
Are they tax and duty-free shops? Or are they more impulsive, "let's buy one more thing before we leave London" type of places?
What about selection? Do they have much?
Also, I saw that there is an Hermes shop.
Short of calling the shops at Heathrow themselves, I thought you ladies would have a better insight for them. I guess my question would be, is anything actually a better price at an airport shop than domestically?
Thank you so much in advance.
Again, if I've posted incorrectly, please move to the right place.
