Shopping

I was hoping some of you could tell me the best cities to do some shopping in around Europe?
I want to get some clothes overseas, probably a couple of pairs of jeans, some shirts and a jacket.
I was wondering which city is best for this? Im doing the European Encounter and also spending a few days in London.
Oh and places not TOO expensive would be good Smiler

Can anyone also advise of the type of prices id be looking at?

Thanks!

    My tour manager told us that in his opinion, Munich and Amsterdam are the two best cities in Europe for shopping.

    I’m not a big clothes shopper myself but I know that Europe in general is a lot more expensive than in Canada or the US.

    Whenever I’m in Europe I always have to stop by H&M, it’s the best place for European fashion at good prices. And the good thing is, there’s an H&M in every European city!

    i really love hitting Zara. It is a bit more fashionable than H&M but you can find them in most European cities.

    In London, the best shopping is the area with Oxford Street, Regent Street, and Bond Street.

    In Paris, the best shopping would be Rue de Rivoli and Avenue des Champs Elysees. You can walk down Rue de Rivoli starting from the Notre-Dame Cathedral area and eventually it will turn into Avenue des Champs Elysees as you pass the Louvre Museum and Place de la Concorde. It’s one of my most enjoyable walks in the world!
