In Sharma, you can buy a lot of useful things about inexpensive prices. First of all, you need to designate places for shopping. Be sure to look at the old market, or, Old Market. There is this bazaar in almost the Hadaba area, a 15-minute drive from Naama Bay.
Right to the goal of the market there are buses for 1 Egypt pound, and on a taxi to negotiate for 15 pounds. The market is open from noon to night, approximately closer to the hour sellers begin to diverge, but during the high season they work longer. The territory of Old Market is quite extensive, and there is a good cafe and hookah next.
Opposite Old Market there is a Tiran shopping center with departments with clothing, including national and cellular shopping and technology. Not far, about 5 minutes drive from the old market, there is a shopping and entertainment complex "1000 and 1 night". There are smaller stores there, but street traders can buy souvenirs, oils, as well as good creams.
Very good center - "Il Mercato", located next to "1000 and 1 night".
First, it is very beautiful: everything is packed with tiles, there is a similarity of the amphitheater, where children cut into skates, McDonalds, cozy cafe, and, of course, shops. Basically, these are stores of clothing. Unlike Old Market, where you can buy mostly T-shirts and beach things from clothing, you can find cool stylish things in Il Mercato, often with discounts. For example, a warm and beautiful sweatshirt can be purchased for 10-13 dollars. There are shops with national clothing, there are departments with children's clothing. I personally like the shop "AR", is almost around the entrance. There are all the favorite "Adidas".
Next, you can make purchases on Nama Bay. The choice is slightly smaller than on Old Market, but you can also buy something like. If you are able to bargain, then you will not notice the difference in price. The only, gold and silver buy still on the old market, prices are at times cheaper. Naama is a good center "Naama Center", where everything is the same, plus several stores with high-quality clothing, such as dresses, and on the top floor a cool restaurant.
Between Naama Bay and the old market there is a shopping center "Viva", also a fairly large center, but I have never been there, so I can't objectively evaluate the service and product.
You can make purchases on the SHOHO Square, but the prices here seems more expensive there, but there are more shops with decent clothes too. But there you can go on a rink with artificial ice, ice-bar and Indian and Italian restaurants.
Look at the shopping center "La Strada", which is near the Nabe area, near the hotel HEALTH CLUB - Oriental Resort.
If you need to buy something from food, in Sharma, in addition to small grocery stores, there are several supermarkets, such as Metro, Ragab Sons, 24/7, Carefour. There it is impossible to bargain there, the prices are fixed, and the choice is quite large. Only Egyptian pounds are accepted in such stores. These shopping centers are in Hadab, Nabe and Naam Bay. Near Carfur ("Carefour") on Naama recently opened a good shop with cosmetics. Prices there are relatively higher, but the goods are excellent (verified).
In these centers you can buy anything. Many tourists go to Sharm specially to buy for fakes of different brand firms: T-shirts Polo "Lacoste" are especially popular (approximately 60-80 pounds), "Converse" sneakers (70-80 pounds), Nike Air Max sneakers (100- 150 pounds) in which all city staff walks, sunglasses from 25 pounds and above, bags of artificial leather (70 pounds and higher), wallets (from 60 pounds), suitcases of different magnitude and capacity (from 130 pounds).
Clarify: the prices mentioned are the lowest, sellers initially call the price at times more expensive, but below this price is unlikely to be able to throw off.
Personally, I bought a few scarves for 30 pounds with a very beautiful print. Sellers will tell you that this is cashmere or silk, but it is not true. Although on the touch scarves are pleasant and warm the cool autumn.
T-shirts and towels there from real Egyptian cotton, the quality is excellent, I advise.
Fake shoes, enough for its maximum month or two active socks. Bags are also made of artificial leather, although there is from natural, but they are much more expensive. My bag regularly serves me for half a year. You can buy fake, but very pretty clock for only 5-7 dollars. My serve me for a whole year.
As for leather products, in principle, you can see the store on Naama Bay near the Catract Resort Hotel, and in the store Daniel, but I do not know where it is.
Souvenirs in Sharma Once Ocean. In the shops at the hotel, they are slightly more expensive, you can buy three bags of souvenirs at the old market at low prices. Who likes what: Plates, figurines, suspension, papyrus, ashtray, boxes, bracelets. Prices from a couple of pounds and above. For 1 dollar you can buy 5 magnets at once.
I will recommend oil. Basically, in all stores, the same oils of the same quality, although sellers tirelessly shout that in the nearby oil store diluted. For 1 ml - 0.5-1 Egyptian pound. Oils do not lose odors for years, tourists told me that the oil was 8 years old and surrounded the last bright fragrance. Naturally, all oils are called "Cleopatra", "Nefertiti", "1000 and 1 night", etc., to attract consideration. Oils can be diluted with alcohol (30 \ 70% oil \ alcohol) and it turns out good perfume. This can also be done in the store, you climb a perfume in a bottle with a sprayer.
I personally add oil into a body cream or a hot bath. Buy hookah, from 5 dollars the smallest and above the hookah more.
You always need to bargain. Prices are always overestimated. With a successful defold, you can bring down the price 2-3 times. Do not buy everything from the first merchant - ask about the cost of goods in other places. For example, one day I almost bought a few grams of spices for 50 pounds, despite the fact that the price was shot down from 150, and in the store nearby the same spices were sold for only 10 pounds. I recommend paying in pounds, it will be saved. Cards are accepted only in large supermarkets, so stock cash.
As for the export of goods from the country, the law is prohibited by the export of seashells and corals, but many tourists are calmly taken out corals, since the baggage control in Sharma is not very close. Procedures "Return Tax Free", as far as I know, there is no in Egypt.
