Duty Free Shopping Tips
This time when I was in Korea, I didn’t
This time I didn’t want to go to the duty free store, I didn’t have enough time, but it happened that there was a duty free store next to the hotel where I stayed, and it was already on sale, so I was tempted to go in again.
There are two big sales in Korea every year, one in the summer (which starts around June and usually lasts for about a month) and one in the winter. It’s rare to find a duty-free sale, and it’s not a great deal to have a duty-free discount.
Friends who are shopping or buying cosmetics abroad can go to the Korea Duty Free website to compare which one has the right price before buying.
Many items are marked (40-50%off). What Ferragamo shoes ah, Armani suit ah, HugoBoss shirt ah are on sale. Of course, the bags that we Chinese people love to buy abroad are also on sale, LV, Gucci, Fendi stores can not only find the new models that are hot right now, but also many styles are heavily discounted.
I didn’t control myself, I bought a bunch of cosmetics, I also bought Gucci sunglasses, I bought three wallets…but it is said that many things in Korean duty-free stores are cheaper than in Hong Kong, and plus the discount, so think about how it’s worth it! It’s worth it!
There is also wine, cigarettes, world famous electronics, famous clothing, Australian KENDONE and Australian wool products, wine, leather products, excellent Korean industrial products and souvenir accessories, World Cup souvenirs, traditional foods (kimchi, nori, etc.). Nori, etc.).
Fruit chocolates, orange and cactus flavors are popular, $9.00 for a 300g bag or box.
Then there’s seaweed, yuzu tea, and small Korean crafts, which you should definitely buy at Namdaemun Market for a good price.
As for chili paste and kimchi, they are heavy and liquid and must be shipped in boxes, so think twice about buying them.
Cosmetics, if you buy them in sets, it is possible to make a mistake of tens of thousands of won, but it is necessary to ask the price of the products you want at the mall first, compare it with the duty-free store, and then decide to buy them there, also depending on the product, some products have the same price outside, so it is not necessary. It is necessary. In fact, the duty-free store to buy things, each staff can be a discount for the guests, but not marked out, to ask yourself, after the things bought to ask them to give gifts, duty-free store gifts actually than the good outside to send more, but generally are foreigners to buy, the language problem, basically no guests asked for, so they are not sent, to their own want, you do not want them to keep themselves away.
According to the comparison of many duty-free stores, the Donghwa Duty Free Shop is the cheapest, but with good discounts and almost no gifts. The last time I bought enough to send a set of 100 U.S. dollars, Clinique bought 300 U.S. dollars to send 2 boxes of button sets, but the discount is really good, and full of 300 U.S. dollars and gave a reduction of 30,000 won, Oh, Le’s Biotherm does not seem to have, Estee Lauder, Dior up to 10% discount, which duty-free stores are the same, there are no small samples to send, buy more people to go. BA is very cow. The price of the airport is relatively not so good, but there will be some gifts ~ (If you go to the duty-free store to buy things, it feels more convenient to use the U.S. dollar)
If the amount of shopping in the city cosmetics store more than 50,000 won will give you a tax refund, but also you have to provide The tax refund will be given only if you provide your return flight itinerary, and after you arrive at the airport, you have to go to the duty-free extradition office at the airport to get a stamp before you can get a tax refund. The first thing you need to do is to go to the airport and get your tax refund.
