    Which cities are you going to?

    If you like art posters, you can buy them in Florence. The jewellery in Venice is not cheap but the designs are beautiful.

    Leather shoes, suits & handbags are great there. I am still wearing the leather shoes that I bought 3 years ago.

    It is also very time consuming to be shopping tour especially in Paris/Italy, u will be treated like China man.

    Italy leather shoe, and Prada are the better ones.
    If not, buy a sport car.

    Anyway, when I am holiday, I dun shop, unless I am in China, buy books only.

    Italy is such a beautiful and rich place to visit. Why spend time in shopping?

    Why most of the Singaporeans go holiday is always, place shopping as top priority instead of having time to appreciate the richness of the country and relax.

    Note when u buy multiple items in a single receipt & claim vat at airpok, any 1 of the item is already in ur check-in luggage & no show in front of the officer, u can kiss goodbye to ur vat for the whole receipt. Remember hor.

    Driving an F1 inspired car doesn't make one an F1 driver... A lot of drivers are trying to be funny on the road. Drive with care by keeping a safe distance.
