Much cheaper in USA than in UK?

[Simon_States]

I am off to the USA in a few months. What bargain items should I definitely purchase which are considerably cheaper than in the UK?.

Before you spend a lot of money, check out what Customs duty you may be liable to on your return:

An i-pod, clothes and footware.

I recently got a pair of Timberland boots for about �32.

Sunglasses are also a bargain.

Trainers, jeans, most clothes, peanut butter, plastic bags and some toiletries.

If your going to the states shopping : jeans golf gear  but  take old for new - and beware at customs theyll ask you to declare up to 250 pounds worth

Last summer I was in Florida - got plenty of cheaper designer clothes and trainers. I also purchased a digital camcorder for half the price! Be careful on electrics though as you will see really cheap ones and they are for american use only, all stores will have UK/Pal versions which you can use at home. Happy Shopping!
