Duty-free shopping looks and feels like an opportunity to get a bargain, but price comparison website PriceSpy says shoppers should check prices before they splurge at the airport. “Even though duty-free shopping is often associated with discounted fragrances and perfumes, our research highlights people really need to do their price due diligence, to make sure this is actually the case,” she said. The price of perfumes was generally dropping and so it was a good time to consider buying in regular stores, she said. Out of the 19 items analysed by PriceSpy, only the Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones, Apple Magic Mouse, Holbrook Matte Black sunglasses, OPI nail polish, Shiseido eye cream and Midnight recovery concentrate were cheaper at duty-free stores The Loop, The Mall or Aelia.
